India IVF, one of India's First Tech-Enabled Fertility Platform, Secures USD 1.25 Million Investment from Tomorrow Capital

PRNewswire
Gurgaon (Haryana) [India], November 11: India IVF, a pioneering fertility provider founded by Dr Richika Sahay and Dr Somendra Shukla in 2014, has secured USD 1.25 million in pre-Series A funding from Tomorrow Capital, a USD 100 million venture capital fund dedicated to supporting early-stage, transformative consumer healthcare businesses. This investment represents India IVF's first external funding since its inception, following a decade of profitable operations across its five North Indian centers, which include clinics in Delhi NCR and Srinagar.
This new funding from Tomorrow Capital will drive India IVF's expansion across North India, enabling the company to bridge critical gaps in fertility care access. With the goal of making advanced fertility solutions accessible to underserved communities, India IVF has established India's first tech-enabled fertility platform, offering comprehensive, 360-degree fertility care through advanced technology and a dedicated team of experts. Tomorrow Capital's investment follows its recent support of VitusCare and IndiShreshtha, further reinforcing its commitment to specialized healthcare ventures.
Rahul Saha, Senior Principal at Tomorrow Capital, said, "India IVF has shown remarkable growth and a deep understanding of the unique fertility challenges faced by many Indian couples. With a tech-enabled, patient-focused approach, they deliver high-quality personalized care, addressing the often-emotional & stigma attached journey of the fertility treatment. Tomorrow Capital backs ventures that drive meaningful impact, and with India IVF, we're proud to enable access to essential fertility care across underserved regions in India. We believe their innovative approach will set new standards in India's fertility sector, and we are excited to support their mission to make fertility care more accessible across the country."
From its beginnings as a single-room clinic in Gurgaon, India IVF has grown into one of North India's leading fertility providers. The IVF market in India, valued at USD 793.27 million in 2020, is projected to reach USD 3.72 billion by 2030, with growth driven by rising infertility rates, increased adoption of IVF, and regulatory advancements such as the ART Act, which is establishing higher standards for clinic infrastructure. However, IVF remains under-penetrated in many regions, requiring patients from smaller towns to travel to major cities for treatment. India IVF is committed to meeting this need by making fertility services accessible across underserved areas.
Dr Somendra Shukla, Co-Founder and CEO of India IVF, commented, "This partnership will empower us to expand our network and bring advanced fertility solutions to more communities. We look forward to making a positive impact on more families and growing India IVF into a trusted national brand."
Dr Richika Sahay, Co-Founder and Medical Director, added, "Approximately 30 million couples in India suffer from infertility, yet only 10% receive proper treatment due to limited access to fertility care. Our mission is to leverage technology and innovation to deliver quality, affordable, and empathetic fertility care to everyone. With Tomorrow Capital's support, we are well-positioned to expand access to fertility care across North India."
With Tomorrow Capital's backing, India IVF is positioned to transform fertility care accessibility in India. By expanding its reach into underrepresented regions and harnessing technology to deliver patient-centered care, India IVF is set to redefine standards in the country's fertility landscape, supporting couples across North India on their paths to parenthood.
