Indian AI healthtech platform Disha (formerly Curelink) has secured Rs 43.88 crore ($6 million) in Series A funding at a post-money valuation of Rs 288 crore.

General Catalyst led the round with a Rs 38.20 crore injection, supported by returning investor Elevation Capital (Rs 5.20 crore) and Flamel Performing Creatives (Rs 48 lakh).

Founded by Aman Singla and Divyansh Jain, the Bengaluru-based startup offers vernacular health coaching across 15 chronic conditions in Hindi, English, and Hinglish.

Why Has Disha Raised Rs 43.88 Crore in Series A Funding?

Indian AI healthtech startup Disha, formerly known as Curelink, has raised Rs 43.88 crore (approximately $6 million) in a Series A funding round led by General Catalyst, with existing investor Elevation Capital and Flamel Performing Creatives Private Limited also participating. The round was disclosed in September 2026.

According to regulatory filings accessed by Entrackr, Disha's board approved the issuance of 12,309 Series A compulsory convertible preference shares (CCPS) at Rs 35,643.64 per share.

Who Invested in Disha's Series A Round?

The Rs 43.88 crore round was distributed among three investors:

InvestorInvestmentApprox. share of round
General CatalystRs 38.20 crore87.1%
Elevation CapitalRs 5.20 crore11.9%
Flamel Performing CreativesRs 48 lakh1.1%
TotalRs 43.88 crore100%

General Catalyst contributed the majority of the capital at Rs 38.20 crore, while Elevation Capital invested Rs 5.20 crore and Flamel Performing Creatives contributed Rs 48 lakh, according to filings cited by Entrackr.

The latest round follows Disha's $3.5 million (approximately Rs 26 crore) seed round, which was led by Elevation Capital and Venture Highway.

How Has Disha's Valuation Changed After the Series A?

Disha's post-money valuation rose to approximately Rs 288 crore, according to Entrackr's estimates, up 52% from roughly Rs 190 crore in the previous round.

The valuation increase comes as Disha shifts further toward an AI-led health coaching model focused on personalised and ongoing support rather than one-time digital health interactions.

How Will Disha Use the Fresh Funding?

The new capital will be deployed across several areas of the business, including:

  • Working capital requirements
  • Development and enhancement of AI models
  • Improvements to Disha's technology platform
  • Expansion of its business and operations
  • Strengthening the company's capital base
  • General corporate purposes

These priorities are outlined in the regulatory filings reviewed by Entrackr.

The funding therefore gives Disha additional capital to invest simultaneously in its technology infrastructure and operating footprint as it scales its health coaching platform.

What Does Disha Offer Through Its AI Health Coaching Platform?

Disha is an AI-powered health coaching platform offering personalised diet, fitness and chronic-care support. The company operates across 15 health conditions and provides coaching in Hindi, English and Hinglish, with services available 24×7.

The company claims:

  • 70 lakh sign-ups
  • 3 lakh active users
  • 1.4 crore messages exchanged through the platform
  • Support across 15 conditions
  • Coaching in 3 languages or language modes: Hindi, English and Hinglish
  • 24×7 availability

The combination of AI, vernacular-language support and continuous coaching forms the core of Disha's current product proposition.

Who Owns Disha After the Latest Funding Round?

Following the latest share allotment, co-founders Aman Singla and Divyansh Jain remain the company's largest shareholders, with 31.10% each.

ShareholderStake
Aman Singla31.10%
Divyansh Jain31.10%
General Catalyst13.33%
Elevation Capital9.96%
ESOP pool9.02%
Venture Highway4.07%
Flamel Performing Creatives0.17%

Disha's angel investor base also includes Vijay Shekhar Sharma, founder and CEO of Paytm; Ankush Sachdeva, co-founder and CEO of ShareChat; and Digital Sparrow Capital, each holding approximately 0.16% according to the latest ownership information.

How Has Disha's Revenue and Loss Changed?

Disha's FY25 financial performance shows revenue growth alongside a reduction in losses.

Revenue increased 98.8%, from Rs 2.47 crore in FY24 to Rs 4.91 crore in FY25. Over the same period, the company's loss narrowed 22.5%, from Rs 5.74 crore to Rs 4.45 crore.

Financial metricFY24FY25Change
RevenueRs 2.47 croreRs 4.91 crore+98.8%
LossRs 5.74 croreRs 4.45 crore-22.5%

Disha has not yet reported its FY26 financial numbers, meaning FY25 remains the latest full-year financial period available in the reported data.

What Does Disha's Series A Mean for Its Next Phase?

The US$6 million Series A gives Disha a substantially larger capital base than its previous Rs 26 crore seed round, while its estimated valuation has increased 52% to Rs 288 crore.

The immediate focus is clear: Disha plans to invest in its AI models, technology platform, working capital and business expansion. With the platform claiming 7 million sign-ups, 300,000 active users and 14 million messages, the next phase will center on converting that user reach into a larger and more developed AI health coaching operation.
