IPF raises Rs 3.2 crore to scale its peer-to-peer marketplace for preloved kids’ products

Bengaluru-based based IPF, a peer-to-peer marketplace for preloved kids’ products, today said it has raised Rs 3.2 crore (~$375,000) in a seed funding round led by Kunal Bahl's Titan Capital.

The round also saw participation from Better Capital and angel investors including Ranjit Pratap Singh (co-founder & CEO, Pratilipi), Aashish Jindal and Vivek Gulati (co-founders of Grip Invest), and Abhishek Bhayana (co-founder, NearPe Technologies).

IPF was founded in 2024 by IIT Roorkee graduates Priyadershita Singh (Priya) and Abhas Mittal, IPF helps parents buy and sell high quality items their children have outgrown with simplicity and confidence. The startup offers a secure, fully integrated marketplace featuring in-app payments, doorstep logistics and buyer protection.

“Every barely-used stroller, crib or toy is an opportunity to save a family money and prevent waste. What began as a trusted parenting community of engaged parents has now grown into a movement for smarter and more sustainable parenting in India, with 80,000+ parents already on board. With Titan Capital’s support, our focus is to strengthen technology, deepen trust and safety, and ensure every transaction is simple, secure and seamless for parents across the country,” said Abhas Mittal and Priyadershita Singh.

IPF launched its in-app payments feature in March 2025 and now serves parents across India, in both metro and non-metro markets.

A spokesperson from Titan Capital added, “We believe C2C commerce is set to take off in India. IPF addresses a real and widespread need for Indian families. The team has built a marketplace that brings trust, transparency, and convenience to a category that has long lacked a dependable peer-to-peer solution. We are excited to partner with Priya and Abhas as they scale.”

The startup will use the raised funds to strengthen its technology and platform scalability, improve logistics and quality-control operations, and accelerate parent acquisition across key cities. It will also invest in product intelligence, safer verification layers, and operational capabilities needed to serve families in the coming years.
