Enrission India Capital Backs Raaho to Expand Digital Freight Network Across India

Enrission India Capital has invested in Raaho, a digital freight-matching platform, as the company looks to expand its operations across India. The investment forms part of Raaho's latest funding round, although the amount raised has not been disclosed.

Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Gurugram, Raaho connects logistics companies with truck owners through a technology-driven platform. Its model replaces traditional offline brokerage with digital processes for matching freight, verifying participants and settling transactions.

Raaho is currently recording year-on-year growth of approximately 50%, while its trip volumes have risen by around 75%. The company reported its first full year of profitability in FY26 and now has operations across 20 cities.

The investment from Enrission India Capital will support three key priorities: expanding Raaho's network from 20 to 25 cities, entering the open-truck segment alongside its existing container-truck business, and investing further in people and technology to build an AI-first organisation.



Raaho plans to apply artificial intelligence to several parts of its operations, including freight matching, pricing, document processing and customer interactions.

The investment also highlights growing interest among Japanese investors in India's logistics technology sector. Both companies said they believe intercity road transportation is a major area for technology-led transformation in the country.

Commenting on the investment, Harsh Deodhar, Principal at Enrission India Capital, said India's trucking sector combines a large market with persistent structural inefficiencies.

He noted that nearly 70% of the country's freight moves by road, while more than 85% of the trucking market is served by owner-operators with fewer than 10 trucks. Much of the sector continues to rely on offline processes and relationship-driven networks.

Deodhar said Raaho's combination of digital freight matching and on-ground operations, supported by a profitable and capital-efficient business model, played an important role in the investment decision.

Md. Imthiaz, Co-founder and CEO of Raaho, said technology had reduced the traditional broker's advantages in cash, information and access, making freight matching the industry's central challenge.

He added that the investment would help Raaho enter more cities and truck categories while accelerating its use of artificial intelligence. The company intends to pursue this expansion while maintaining the operational discipline it has followed since its launch.
