In a startup ecosystem often dominated by rapid-fire cash burns and premature fundraising, home salon and wellness platform Yes Madam has proven that patience pays off. After remaining entirely bootstrapped since its inception in 2016, the Gurugram-based company has officially closed its first institutional funding round, securing ₹50 crore from Info Edge’s growth fund.
Startup Spotlight: Yes Madam Raises ₹50 Crore from Info Edge
The investment marks a massive milestone for the company, validating a lean, sustainable business model that many industry observers had been watching closely.
Doubling Revenues While Staying in the Green
Founded by Mayank Arya, Aditya Arya, and Akanksha Vishnoi, Yes Madam has quietly built an empire in the at-home beauty space. While competitors fought expensive marketing wars, the founders focused on unit economics and customer retention.
The strategy has clearly yielded exceptional results. The startup’s financial milestones highlight its impressive trajectory:
- The Revenue Surge: Yes Madam reported a staggering ₹195 crore in revenue for FY26—more than doubling the ₹94 crore it brought in during FY25.
- Consistent Profitability: Unlike the vast majority of scale-up startups, the company has remained firmly profitable for three consecutive years.
- Massive Operational Scale: Today, the platform operates seamlessly across 55+ cities, fulfilling nearly 300,000 service bookings every single month.
Empowering a 12,000+ Strong Women’s Network
What makes Yes Madam’s growth story particularly compelling is its massive social impact. The platform acts as a major employment engine, currently supporting a network of over 12,000+ women service professionals. By providing gig workers with transparent pricing, fair commission structures, and steady booking volumes, the platform has managed to foster deep loyalty among its service providers.
According to the leadership team, the fresh ₹50 crore injection will be deployed strategically to fuel the next phase of expansion. The capital is earmarked to take the brand into untapped tier-2 and tier-3 cities, aggressively upgrade its underlying technology stack, and provide further training and support infrastructure for its rapidly growing workforce of female professionals.
As institutional capital enters the equation, Yes Madam is perfectly positioned to transition from a quiet, profitable market player into a dominant, household name across India.
