Newtral Technologies, a climate-tech startup, has raised $600,000 in funding from NOW Venture Studio under its Accelerate model.
NOW is a deep tech and deep science venture studio focused on sustainability and climate tech. As part of the program, Newtral will receive hands-on studio engagement by NOW Accelerate to expand into key global markets and build scalable revenue & business models on the path to Series A. NOW has already begun working with Newtral and has jointly identified target customer segments, product roadmap and co-designed a focused go-to-market plan to drive repeatable growth.
The funds raised will be used to scale and execute the GTM plan in key global markets, scale recurring revenue, build toward Series-A readiness and establish itself as a global sustainability platform.
Founded in 2022 by Avi Chudasama and Anuraag Paul, and headquartered in Bengaluru, Newtral Technologies is an AI-powered sustainability management platform helping enterprises automate ESG reporting, track value-chain (Scope 3) emissions, and drive decarbonization outcomes.
By integrating reporting, insights, and action into one platform, Newtral is building a scalable global solution to help businesses transition toward a low-carbon future.
The company is already trusted by over 100 companies, including Wockhardt, Meghalaya Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC), and Metro Brands Limited, across pharma, real estate, and retail.
Gayathri Kuppendra Reddy, Founder, NOW, said, “We selected Newtral first and foremost for the scale of the market opportunity. With ESG disclosures becoming mandatory worldwide, enterprises urgently need platforms that go beyond compliance to real impact. If enterprises deeply understand their emissions footprint, they can also unlock significant operational efficiencies and cost savings alongside decarbonization. We saw strong product vision and execution capability in Newtral to enable just that. Through NOW Accelerate, we’re embedding our resources, networks, and expertise as institutional co-founders to help them achieve repeatable growth and global scale. We’ve already worked with the team on identifying key markets and GTM design. Our focus now is execution and scale.”
Avi Chudasama, Founder, Newtral, said, “Partnering with NOW Accelerate provides us with both capital and deep engagement. This collaboration strengthens our go-to-market strategy, accelerates our expansion into key sectors, and equips us to build repeatable enterprise sales processes. Together, we aim to help companies move from reporting to real decarbonization outcomes.”
