Titan Capital Leads Seed Round
Peer-to-peer marketplace for kids’ products IPF has raised ₹3.2 crore ($375,000) in a seed funding round led by Titan Capital. The round also saw participation from Better Capital and a group of angel investors including Ranjit Pratap Singh, Grip Invest co-founder Aashish Jindal, Vivek Gulati, and Abhishek Bhayana.
Use of Funds and Expansion Focus
According to the company, the fresh capital will be deployed to strengthen its technology stack, improve platform scalability, enhance logistics and quality-control operations, and accelerate parent acquisition across key Indian cities. IPF is also investing in safer verification layers to build trust in peer-to-peer transactions involving children’s products.
Building a Trusted Marketplace for Pre-Loved Kids’ Products
Founded in 2024 by Priyadershita Singh and Abhas Mittal, IPF enables parents to buy and sell high-quality, pre-loved kids’ items through a structured and secure platform. The startup positions itself as a quality-led circular commerce platform, combining community trust with intuitive technology to offer an affordable and sustainable alternative to buying new products.
Solving Trust and Safety Gaps in Resale
IPF addresses key challenges in the kids’ resale segment, where products are often lightly used but expensive when bought new. Existing classifieds and resale platforms typically lack verification, logistics support, and safety assurance, making them unsuitable for families. IPF’s model focuses on product checks, controlled logistics, and in-app payments to improve reliability.
Early Traction and Roadmap
Since launching in-app payments in March 2025, IPF claims to have seen strong traction. The platform currently serves parents across metro and non-metro markets and plans to invest further in product intelligence and operational capabilities to support scale.
Final Take
With rising demand for sustainable consumption and trust-led resale, IPF is positioning itself as a dedicated circular marketplace for Indian families, backed by early confidence from leading seed investors.
