Logistics startup DAAKit secures $138,000 in pre-seed round

The logistics startup DAAKit has raised $138,000 in a pre-seed round led by Inflection Point Ventures.

The company is currently operational across Delhi, Gurugram, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Kolkata, with Lucknow running as a pilot to test expansion into Tier-II and Tier-III cities. DAAKit had earlier secured ₹20 lakh through CCD from the SISFS Fund at AIC IIT Delhi Sonipat and won Runner-Up at Eureka 2025 in the Logistics & Supply Chain category, winning a cash prize of ₹1 lakh.

Mitesh Shah, Co-founder, Inflection Point Ventures says, “DAAKit has demonstrated an impressive growth trajectory, turning profitable early while maintaining double‑digit EBITDA and growing 15-20% every month in orders and revenue.  Its asset‑light model, backed by a strong partner network, has enabled reliable and fast expansion across cities, thus setting a new benchmark in India logistic Infrastructure.”

Funds will be deployed towards business growth, launch 25 new dark stores across Tier-I and Tier-II cities, strengthen technology development including infrastructure, licensing, and integrations and expand the team with strategic hires such as CXO roles, VP Sales & Business Development, and operations managers for newer markets.

Chandan Singh Ghugtyal, Founder & CEO, DAAKit says, "IPV's conviction in DAAKit reinforces our belief that the next phase of commerce will be powered by strong hyperlocal infrastructure, not just faster delivery. From day one, our focus has been on building a capital-efficient, profitable business while solving real last-mile challenges for brands and sellers. This market allows us to double down on technology, expand responsibly across new markets, and build a network that scales with discipline. Our goal is simple: to make fast, reliable fulfilment accessible to every growing business in India."

DAAKit's technology-driven model empowers brands to decentralise their inventory, positioning stock closer to end customers. This approach significantly cuts delivery timelines while preserving strong unit economics.

DAAKit fulfils thousands of orders daily across its network of fulfilment centres, translating to a substantial monthly volume. With the launch of its pilot Lucknow warehouse, the company anticipates a significant surge in operations and is targeting nearly half a million orders per month across its network in the near future.
