Bengaluru-based edtech startup Arivihan has raised USD 10 million in Series A funding from existing investors Accel and Prosus Ventures, along with an additional USD 200,000 from its existing GSF angel investors. The latest round takes the company’s total funding to more than USD 15 million.

Entrackr recently reported on the company’s new funding and estimated that its valuation had jumped 3.3X to around USD 60 million.

Fresh Capital to Expand Across India

Arivihan plans to use the fresh capital to expand into new states and strengthen its presence in Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Bihar.

The company also plans to expand its CBSE offering, build more vernacular-language capabilities, and increase its AI research efforts. As part of its broader expansion, Arivihan will scale its digital marketing and on-ground distribution network across India.

The startup also plans to hire across key functions and launch new crash courses.

AI-Based Learning Platform for Students

Founded in 2022 by Ritesh Singh Chandel, Sonu Kumar and Rushabh Kothari, Arivihan offers an AI-based learning platform for school students.

Its platform provides interactive video lessons, instant doubt solving, and AI-driven study plans without relying on live teachers.

The company currently serves students preparing for State Board, CBSE, and NEET exams, focusing on students in tier 2 and tier 3 cities and rural areas. Arivihan said around 80% of its subscribers come from tier 3 cities and rural India.

Arivihan was previously part of Accel’s Atoms accelerator program and received seed funding through the program in March 2024.

Revenue Jumps 14.8X in FY25

The company is yet to file its FY26 financials. In FY25, Arivihan’s revenue jumped nearly 14.8X to Rs. 3.14 crore, up from Rs. 21.29 lakh in FY24.

Despite the sharp revenue increase, the company posted a loss of Rs 4.45 crore in FY25.

The latest Series A funding gives Arivihan additional capital to expand its geographical reach, strengthen its AI capabilities, and build out its offerings for students across India’s smaller cities and rural markets.
