Try Dealroom →, one of Rajasthan's established construction-material businesses.
What's next? Founded by Lakshya Agarwal and Kshitij S. Rungta, the company delivers construction materials in under an hour, letting retailers order on demand instead of tying up capital in excess inventory. It now aims to move from fulfilling orders to helping retailers anticipate what to stock and when, using demand and purchase data.
Why now? Construction retail remains one of India's large but largely offline supply chains, with retailers juggling multiple suppliers, uncertain availability, and working capital locked in stock. The funding will strengthen technology and product capabilities, add categories, and deepen the company's presence across Tier-2 and Tier-3 markets.
By the numbers: Digidukan's monthly GMV has grown eightfold since the start of 2026. It reports a roughly 90% repeat customer rate, nearly 5,000 orders delivered to date, and an average order value above ₹9,000.
"Over decades in the building-material industry, I have seen that the real constraint is rarely demand; it is the inefficiency between demand and availability," said Vinay Gupta, director at United Plywood Group.
Co-founder Lakshya Agarwal framed the ambition more broadly: "We are building a technology company that happens to deliver building materials in under an hour."
The signal: Digidukan's raise reflects investor appetite for applying quick-commerce mechanics to fragmented, offline B2B supply chains — betting that data-led procurement can loosen the working capital that construction retailers keep locked in inventory.
