IIT Madras-incubated climate deeptech and robotics startup Solinas Integrity has raised $5.5 million in a Series A1 funding round led by Hero Enterprise Partner Ventures and Mela Ventures.
The round also saw participation from Luthra Group.
Existing investor SBI Ventures doubled down on its position, alongside continued backing from Rainmatter and 8X Ventures Fund I, the company said in a statement.
The round follows Solinas's Series A round, which was led by SBI Ventures through the SVL-SME Fund (Neev II) in May 2024, and underscores the deepening alignment between India's climate-tech innovation ecosystem and global sustainability-focused capital.
Founded by Divanshu Kumar and Moinak Banerjee, Solinas builds robotics and AI systems that inspect, clean, and digitise underground water and wastewater infrastructure, solving the problems of water leakage, contamination, and manual scavenging.
