Enlite raises Rs 46 Cr in Series A round led by Avaana Capital

Enlite, a full-stack building automation startup, has raised Rs 46 crore (around $5.32 million) in a Series A round led by Avaana Capital, with participation from Claypond Capital. 

The proceeds will be used to expand into the Middle East and Southeast Asia while deepening its presence in India. It will invest in edge AI, telemetry, and go-to-market efforts targeting real estate, pharma, smart airports, hospitality, and public infra.

Founded in 2017, Enlite offers a plug-and-play solution that replaces outdated, wired building management systems (BMS) with custom-built wireless hardware, edge AI, and cloud software. 

Its automation platform eliminates vendor lock-in and complex integration by enabling non-intrusive deployments that self-optimize for energy, performance, and user experience.

Since its commercial launch in 2022, Enlite claims to have deployed its system across 25 million sq. ft., working with clients like Prestige Group, Fairmont Mumbai, top REITs, and major hospital chains. It is also piloting LLM-on-hardware tech and has filed three global patents.

Enlite operates in a global market projected to exceed $827 billion by 2032, competing with legacy infra-tech providers.
