Smart Kitchen Brand Beyond Appliances Nets Funding To Boost Its Tech Stack

Bengaluru-based smart kitchen startup Beyond Appliances has raised INR 16.8 Cr (around $ 2 Mn) in a seed funding round led by Fireside Venture Investment Fund III. 

The round also saw participation from Dharana Capital, along with a host of angel investors, including Design Cafe’s founder Shezan Bhojani, Livspace cofounders Saurabh Jain and Ramakant Sharma as well as former chief executive of TTK Prestige Chandu Kalro.

The company plans to use the fresh funding for scaling up its tech and manufacturing stacks.

Dexter Capital was the exclusive advisor to the company on this investment.

Founded in 2024 by Eshwar K Vikas and Rakesh Patil, Beyond Appliances combines advanced technology with practical functionality to transform kitchens into smart kitchens.

“With our technology-first approach and deep understanding of kitchen dynamics, we aim to reimagine how people interact with their kitchens. Having already revolutionised commercial kitchens through Mukunda Foods, we understand the profound impact that thoughtful innovation can bring to everyday cooking. With this funding, we are positioned to accelerate our R&D efforts and expand our manufacturing capabilities, bringing more groundbreaking products to Indian households,” said Vikas.

The products are currently available through major ecommerce platforms, including Amazon and Flipkart, as well as retail stores across Bengaluru.
