YOGa Clean Air has raised Rs. 20 crore in a Series A funding round led by Info Edge Ventures. The round also saw participation from Deepinder Goyal, founder of Eternal, and Three Words Capital.
The Gurugram-based startup is working on a problem many Indian families understand too well which is that polluted air entering homes, schools, offices, hospitals and gyms. Instead of selling a regular air purifier, YOGa Clean Air is building full-space clean-air systems that try to stop polluted air from entering indoor spaces in the first place.
What YOGa Clean Air does
YOGa Clean Air builds indoor air-quality systems for homes and institutions. Its main product is called the Clean Air Bubble system.
In simple terms, the system filters outdoor air before bringing it inside. It also keeps slightly higher air pressure inside the room or building. This helps reduce polluted outside air from leaking in through small gaps, doors or windows.
The company also manages carbon dioxide levels indoors. This matters because a closed room may feel clean, but if fresh air is not managed well, CO2 can rise and make people feel tired or uncomfortable.
Founder and founding year
YOGa Clean Air was started by Sachin Panwar in 2010. The company was formally established as YOGAN Solutions Pvt Ltd in 2019 with co-founders Deepak Raina and Gaurav Nagar.
Sachin Panwar is the co-founder and CEO of the startup. The company has built its presence slowly and now serves homes, schools, hospitals, offices and gyms across multiple Indian cities.
Purpose of the funding
The fresh Rs. 20 crore funding will be used mainly for expansion.
YOGa Clean Air plans to grow deeper in its existing markets and enter more Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. The company also wants to take its clean-air systems into newer use cases, including public transport and outdoor-linked environments.
This is an important step. Cleaning air inside a home is one challenge. Making clean-air systems work in buses, trains, stations or other public spaces is much harder. It needs better engineering, stronger installation support and long-term maintenance.
Why this startup matters
Air pollution is not only an outdoor problem. Polluted air can enter homes, classrooms and offices too. Many people buy room purifiers, but those usually clean air only inside a limited space.
YOGa is trying to solve the issue at a room or building level. For example, a school in Delhi-NCR may want cleaner air across classrooms, not just in one corner. A hospital may need controlled air quality for patients. A family living near a busy road may want the whole home to remain safer during high-pollution days.
That is where a system-led approach can be useful.
Competitors in the market
YOGa Clean Air competes with indoor air-quality and air-purification companies such as Airth, Clairco, Ubreathe and Atovio. It also faces competition from large consumer air purifier brands that sell standalone machines.
Its difference is that it is not positioning itself as just another purifier brand. It wants to offer a service-led clean-air setup for full spaces.
Conclusion – Key takeaways
YOGa Clean Air’s Rs. 20 crore Series A funding shows growing investor interest in India’s clean-air and climate-tech market.
The startup’s aim is simple but serious: make indoor air cleaner for families, students, patients, office workers and public-space users. The funding will help it expand to more cities, improve reach, and test its technology in larger environments like public transport.
