The company said it helps people suffering from lifestyle disorders find discrete and convenient solutions at home and would utilize the funds to build its technology stack, initiate full-fledged operations across major cities in the country and ramp up its brand building and marketing activities.
“Infertility and sexual disorders are a growing problem in India, and in the name of solution what is available is just a few brands who sell generic drugs and pills. At Janani, we get to the root cause of the problem through our proprietary diagnostic and treatment plans created with the help of expert doctors, and this round funding validates the market’s need for an innovative product,” Nilay Mehrotra, co-founder of Janani said.
