B2B ecommerce platform Udaan is negotiating a $50-60 million top-up from existing backers Lightspeed and M&G at a flat $1.8 billion valuation, likely its last private round before an IPO targeted post-profitability in 15-18 months.

Why this matters

Udaan's flat-valuation top-up signals investor caution despite improving fundamentals: 40% lower Ebitda burn and narrowed losses position the B2B ecommerce platform for a pre-IPO consolidation phase.

Retail-company signals steady at 1,065 over 90 days, reflecting sustained funding and strategy activity.
