Dovetail Capital has raised ₹100 crore in its first institutional funding round, marking a major milestone for the Mumbai-based asset-servicing firm. The Series A round was led by Elev8 Venture Partners and included a mix of primary and secondary capital. Founded in 2017, Dovetail Capital has built itself as an independent, technology-first platform for investment asset servicing. The company says the fresh funds will support its global expansion and help it strengthen its presence in international markets.
The deal is also important because it shows growing investor interest in financial infrastructure startups. Dovetail serves investors who want a partner without competing interests, and the company says that model helped attract institutional backing in its first major fundraise.
The raise comes at a time when Indian startups in the financial services space are looking beyond domestic markets. Dovetail plans to expand across GIFT City, Mauritius, and Dubai, which could help it serve more global clients and grow its cross-border business. At about $10.5 million, the funding round may look modest compared with large tech deals, but it is a meaningful step for a specialised B2B company. For Dovetail, the capital can help support hiring, operations, and market expansion while building a stronger position in asset servicing.
