CARS24 Raised $400 Million in New Funding Round

On Monday, CARS24 said that it had raised $400 million in a funding round that saw the participation of asset manager Alpha Wave Global, valuing the used-car retailing platform at $3.3 billion.

The round comprises a $300 million equity infusion led by Alpha Wave and $100 million in debt from investors in India, Australia and the United Arab Emirates, CARS24 said.

The funds will expand the company’s presence in the Middle East, Australia and Southeast Asia.

Indian startups have been on a tear in 2021, with several of them entering the “unicorn” club of $1 billion valuations, while high-profile names such as digital payments firm Paytm, food delivery firm Zomato and fashion e-commerce company Nykaa have made public market debuts via massive IPOs.
