• AstroTalk in advanced talks to raise $50–$100 Mn, eyeing a unicorn valuation of $1.3–$1.5 Billion up from $300 Mn in 2024.
• FY25 revenue surged to ₹1,182 Cr with ₹250 Cr profit, as its astrology and D2C wellness platform scales rapidly.
• IPO likely in early 2026, making AstroTalk the first online astrology platform in India to go public.

AstroTalk, the online astrology platform, is in advanced discussions to raise between $50 million and $100 million in a fresh funding round, according to sources familiar with the matter. The company is targeting a valuation of $1.3 to $1.5 billion in this round, a significant jump from its last estimated valuation of around $300 million. If successful, the deal would catapult AstroTalk into unicorn status, marking a major milestone for the web-based astrology service.

The round is expected to close in the coming months and is likely to be the final one before the company files its Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) for an initial public offering (IPO), anticipated in the first half of 2026. Investors involved in the ongoing talks include both new and existing backers. AstroTalk previously raised $14 million in June 2024, bringing its total funding to $34 million from investors such as Left Lane Capital and Elev8 Capital.

Founded to connect users with astrologers online, AstroTalk has built a large network of over 45,000 practitioners, including astrologers, tarot readers, numerologists, and Vastu consultants. The platform provides consultations via call, chat, and video, offering guidance on issues ranging from relationships and marriage to health and career decisions.

Over the past two years, the company has shown impressive financial growth. In FY24, it recorded revenues of ₹651 crore with a profit of ₹100 crore. For FY25, revenue climbed to ₹1,182 crore, and profits surged past ₹250 crore. In a bid to diversify and expand its offerings, AstroTalk recently launched a direct-to-consumer vertical, selling spiritual and wellness products including gemstones, puja services, and astrological remedies. According to co-founder Anmol Jain, this segment is already viable and could contribute up to 30% of the company’s revenue.

If AstroTalk successfully lists on the public markets, it would become the first online astrology startup in India to go public. It currently faces competition from other players in the segment such as Astrosage, Astroyogi, GaneshaSpeaks, and InstaAstro. The company has declined to comment on the ongoing fundraising talks.
