Perkant Tech raises Rs 6.6 Cr in seed round

Indore-based health tech startup Perkant Tech has raised Rs 6.6 crore ($771K) in its seed round led by YourNest Venture Capital. The funding also saw support from the Government of India’s Atal New India Challenge (Rs 1 crore), Villgro Foundation (Rs 35 lakh), and Sanchi Connect (Rs 25 lakh).

The proceeds will be used to help Perkant Tech improve its technology, grow its team, and prepare for a wider launch after successful tests. The firm also plans to add more features for detecting diseases early and helping in recovery tracking.

Founded in 2020 by engineers Lokant Jain and Saniya Jeswani, Perkant Tech has created a smart AI-powered medical device that gives quick and clear health checks. Its main product, “Abhay Parimiti,” can scan a person’s health in under 60 seconds and works even in areas with limited doctors.

Perkant’s technology is already patented in India and has a pending patent in the U.S. It is also aligned with India’s National Digital Health Mission.

Its system can track over 700 body signals, helping people stay ahead of serious illnesses. The device is easy to use, making it helpful for both doctors and non-medical users in rural or remote places.
