Jaipur-based B2Bquick-commerce startup Digidukan has raised Rs 2 crore in angel funding from Vinay Gupta and Shubham Gupta, directors at United Plywood Group.
The funding will be used to strengthen the startup’s technology and product capabilities, expand into additional construction-material categories and support higher order volumes. Digidukan also plans to increase its presence across Tier-2 and Tier-3 markets.
Founded by Lakshya Agarwal and Kshitij S. Rungta, Digidukan operates an on-demand procurement platform for construction-material retailers, with a model designed to deliver orders within 60 minutes. It aims to reduce retailers’ reliance on excess inventory and multiple supplier networks.
Vinay Gupta, director at United Plywood Group, said inefficiencies between demand and product availability had long been a challenge in the building-material sector.
“Over decades in the building-material industry, I have seen that the real constraint is rarely demand; it is the inefficiency between demand and availability,” he said.
“Fragmented procurement, excess inventory, and inconsistent supply have constrained retailers for years. Digidukan is addressing this structural gap at its core,” he added.
Digidukan reported that its monthly gross merchandise value, or GMV, has grown eightfold since the beginning of 2026. It has recorded nearly 5,000 orders to date, with an average order value of more than Rs 9,000 and a repeat customer rate of about 90%.
The startup is developing technology that uses purchasing and demand patterns to help retailers determine what products to stock and when to reorder them. Its longer-term plan is to move beyond order fulfilment towards a data-led procurement system that can anticipate retailer requirements.
Lakshya Agarwal, co-founder of Digidukan, said the technology had been developed alongside the company’s delivery operations.
“We did not buy this stack; we built it while we were already delivering,” he said.
“The next step is handing that intelligence to the shopkeeper, so Digidukan stops being a place they order from and starts being the system that tells him what to order. We are building a technology company that happens to deliver building materials in under an hour,” he added.
Agarwal leads Digidukan’s technology and data operations, using demand and purchasing patterns to inform procurement decisions, while Rungta focuses on inventory, execution and fulfilment.
The startup plans to use its data capabilities to help retailers replenish products more efficiently, reduce excess inventory and limit the amount of working capital tied up in stock.
