Founded in 2020 and certified by the ministry of Ayush, the brand offers 100 per cent natural and organic hair care products. The funds will be used to expand online reach through marketing, promotion and grow the product portfolio.

"We are happy to raise our pre-Seed funding round.HairVeda uses powerful and authentic ayurvedic herbs in its products which can strengthen and repair damaged hair. Our team and stakeholders are looking forward to growing further and collaborating with strategic investors to make HairVeda globally available in the USA, Canada, Mexico and many more countries.
