YOGa Clean Air has raised ₹20 crore led by Info Edge Ventures, with Deepinder Goyal joining. It is the first institutional money the company has taken, and its filed accounts already show a profit on about ₹13 crore of revenue. On Delhi's worst days the air outside crosses 900 micrograms of particulate matter per cubic metre, sixty times the level the World Health Organization treats as safe over 24 hours. YOGa Clean Air says the air inside the buildings it fits stays in single digits on those same days. On 31 August 2026 the company raised₹20 crore, led byInfo Edge Ventures, with Deepinder Goyal, founder of Zomato's parent Eternal, and Three Words Capital joining. It is the first institutional money the business has taken. YOGa trades as YOGAN Solutions Private Limited, registered in Delhi. Its filed accounts for the year to 31 March 2025 show revenue of about₹13 croreand a net profit of about₹67 lakh, with revenue up64%on the year before. Those are small numbers in absolute terms and unusual ones in context. Most companies announcing a first institutional round are selling a plan. This one is selling a business that already works, at a size where the round is worth roughly one and a half times everything it booked last year. Sachin Panwar started the business in 2010. The company was formally incorporated in 2019, alongside co-founders Deepak Raina and Gaurav Nagar. Sixteen years passed between the first version of this idea and the first venture cheque, and the company says it got there on customer referrals with no conventional marketing spend. The product is not a purifier, and the distinction is the whole business. A standalone purifier cleans the air already in a room while more of it leaks in around doors, windows and gaps. YOGa treats the space as a sealed system: it filters air on the way in, then holds the room at slightly higher pressure than the outside, so contaminated air cannot push its way through the gaps. Because a sealed room accumulates carbon dioxide from the people breathing in it, the system manages that too, which is the difference between air that is clean and air that is also fresh. The company holds two patents on the approach. It says its systems protect more than 5,000 families and a set of schools, hospitals, offices and gyms across 11 cities, and reports a 100% renewal rate on annual maintenance contracts. It attributes independent validation of its air quality readings to IIT Delhi. Prof. Mukesh Khare of IIT Delhi is the company's non-executive chairman. The obvious question about a business that funds itself is what it needs the money for. The answer sits in the plan attached to the round: deeper coverage in existing cities, expansion into new Tier-1 and Tier-2 markets, and an extension of the systems into public transport and other outdoor environments. That last item is the expensive one. Sealing a home or a school is a contained engineering job with a paying customer at the end of it. Putting engineered clean
