Even as global crop prices face volatility, Arya.ag, an Indian agritech platform, continues to attract investors and maintain profitability, demonstrating resilience in a challenging market. The company's success is attributed to its integrated business model, focus on technology, and strategic expansion of its services.
Arya.ag operates as a grain commerce platform, connecting agricultural producers with buyers and providing a suite of services including warehousing, financing, and market linkages. This comprehensive approach addresses critical gaps in the post-harvest value chain, reducing waste and improving efficiency for all stakeholders. By digitizing the stored produce, Arya.ag converts each bag of commodity into an electronic balance that can be stored, used as loan security, or sold digitally.
The company's financial performance has been strong, with a reported 70% surge in profit after tax (PAT) for FY 2024-25, reaching INR 32 crore. Gross revenue for the same period stood at INR 5,738.7 crore, with net revenue at INR 447 crore. This growth is particularly noteworthy considering the volatile agribusiness environment marked by fluctuating commodity prices and supply chain disruptions. In the first half of the fiscal year, Arya.ag announced a 42.55% increase in net profit, reaching Rs 22.98 crore, driven by strong lending operations and an expanding warehousing network.
Arya.ag has also been successful in securing funding. In July 2024, the company raised $29 million in a pre-Series D funding round led by Blue Earth Capital, with participation from existing investors. In January 2025, Arya.ag secured a $30 million debt facility from HSBC India. The company intends to use this capital to provide post-harvest liquidity to farmers, FPOs, and small agri-enterprises, integrating them into the formal banking system. In late 2025, reports emerged that Arya.ag was in discussions to raise an additional Rs 250-300 crore in a fresh funding round.
A key factor in Arya.ag's success is its focus on leveraging technology to improve the agricultural value chain. The company utilizes AI and IoT to establish grain quality at the farm gate and offers farmers a digital platform to select and book warehouses. Its technology stack also enables efficient storage, financing, and seamless experience for its users. Furthermore, Arya.ag leverages deep-tech computer vision, IoT, and blockchain to minimize risks associated with commodity storage and financing.
The Indian agritech sector has seen increasing investment in recent years, driven by technological advancements and the need for sustainable farming practices. Despite a recent slowdown in funding, the sector is projected to reach $600 million in investments by 2029. Arya.ag's ability to remain profitable and attract investors during this period demonstrates the strength of its business model and its potential for long-term growth.
Looking ahead, Arya.ag plans to scale its geographic presence and deepen its technological capabilities. The company's commitment to providing end-to-end services, connecting farmers to markets, and leveraging technology positions it well for continued success in the evolving agricultural landscape.
