Instafix, a doorstep smartphone repair startup founded by former Blinkit employees, has raised Rs 7.55 crore ($900,000) in a pre-seed funding round co-led by Titan Capital and 8i Ventures.
The round also saw participation from Anish Srivastava, senior vice-president at Blinkit, and Bharat Kalia, co-founder and CEO of Lifelong.
The startup plans to use the raised amount to expand operations in Gurugram, add support for premium Android devices alongside iPhones, and strengthen the technology behind its repair network.
Founded in 2025 by Aniket Kale and Chetan Chauhan, Instafix offers on-demand smartphone repairs at customers' homes, promising certified technicians and repairs completed within 30 minutes.
The Gurugram-based startup said it carries out repairs in front of customers, offers warranties of up to 12 months, and charges prices as much as 50% lower than those at original equipment manufacturer (OEM) service centres.
'Phones haven't fundamentally changed in years, yet 40% of Indians replace theirs within two years - usually over a fixable issue. A quality repair can add two years to a phone's life, save a household up to Rs 50,000, and keep a perfectly good device in use,' said Aniket Kale, Co-founder, Instafix.
'Since Instafix's launch in Gurugram in Oct '25, we've grown 100% month-on-month with a 4.7-star customer rating,' he said.
'Smartphones today sit at the center of an individual's life, yet smartphone repairs remain slow, fragmented and highly unreliable. Instafix's full-stack, on-site, quick service approach is rebuilding the repair experience from the ground up starting with the highest trust category - smartphones, and has the potential to unlock one of the largest services opportunities in consumer tech infrastructure,' said Titan Capital spokesperson.
