The month of April continues to remain steady in terms of the venture capital inflow into the Indian startups as the total amount has been in the $500 million range with mid-sized deals giving the boost this week.
The total venture funding amount for the third week of April was $441.43 million cutting across 29 deals, compared to $500 million in the comparable previous week.
The highlight of the week was the $135 million capital infusion into crypto exchange CoinDCX though there were other deals falling in the range of $20-$50 million that provided the lift to the funding this week.
Though, it remains to be seen how this momentum will sustain in the weeks ahead as there is a widely held view that there might be a dip in the fund inflow given the not so good macroeconomic conditions. This could actually call for certain prudence on the part of the startups.
