Moglix, a business-to-business (B2B) ecommerce platform, has raised $250 million in its Series F funding round, at a valuation of $2.6 billion, the company said in a statement. The financing round was led by existing investors Tiger Global and Alpha Wave Global along with Hong Kong based Ward Ferry, which is joining as a new investor, reported ET.
With the current fundraise, seed-stage investors in Moglix have made an exit by selling their shares, the company said.
