Tech4Billion Media plans to raise $200 million at a valuation of $1 billion, propelling the operator of video-sharing platform Chingari into India’s fast-growing unicorn league. Chingari will use its Series B fundraising round to raise the additional funds. The successful launching of its social token GARI on numerous cryptocurrency platforms last month will support the firm valuation.

The trend continued in the first quarter of 2022, with 14 companies, including DealShare, Polygon, and Games 24×7, becoming unicorns.
