In October 2017, Meesho raised $3.1 million Series A funding [8] from investors led by Indian venture capital firm SAIF Partners, bringing its total funding to $3.7 million.[9] Awards & RecognitionIn August 2016, VC-focused data platform Mattermark ranked Meesho 8 among 25 fastest-growing Y Combinator incubated startups.[10] In July 2017, Deccan Chronicle named Meesho among Top 5 apps for social commerce.[11] In Feb 2018, Forbes India featured Meesho founders Vidit Aatrey and Sanjeev Barnwal in its 30 Under 30 list of young achievers.[2] The startup was also one of the growing Indian businesses to be profiled by Forbes Asia [12] in the same year.
