OZi Raises $3.3 Million to Build India’s Baby-Care Quick Commerce Brand

Delhi NCR-based baby care startup OZi has raised $3.3 million (around ₹27 crore) in a seed funding round led by Blume Ventures.

Other investors like Huddle Ventures, Zeropearl VC, Untitled , and well-known angel investors such as Abhinav Sinha (OYO), Gaurav Ajmera (ex-Zomato), and Dhyanesh Shah (Pharmeasy) also joined the round.

This fresh funding will help OZi expand to new cities , add more baby products , and deliver faster to young parents across India.

What is OZi?

OZi is a baby care quick commerce platform — that means, it delivers all baby essentials like diapers, wipes, baby food, milk, toys, clothes, and medicines in just 30 minutes .

Founded by Amit Sah (who earlier worked at OYO and Ola), OZi wants to make parenting easier by ensuring that baby products reach parents quickly, reliably, and safely .

The app is available on both Android and iOS , and currently serves Delhi NCR , with plans to expand soon to Bangalore, Mumbai, and Hyderabad .

Why OZi is Different

OZi is focusing only on the baby care category — unlike other big players like Zepto or Blinkit that sell everything.
By staying focused, OZi can:

  • Ensure faster delivery (since all warehouses stock only baby products)
  • Maintain better quality and hygiene
  • Offer personalised suggestions to parents
  • Build strong trust in a very sensitive category

This idea is called vertical quick commerce — where one brand focuses on just one category but does it really well.

What the Founder Says

According to Amit Sah , “Parents don’t have time to wait when it comes to their babies. If you run out of diapers or baby food, you need it now — not tomorrow. That’s the gap OZi wants to fill.”

He added that the company’s goal is to become India’s most trusted baby brand , built around speed, safety, and care .\

Why Investors are Excited

Investors like Blume Ventures believe that the baby-care market in India is huge and growing fast.
Every month, millions of new parents buy baby essentials — and many of them are ready to pay extra for quick delivery and reliable products.

Blume said in their note that baby-care is a high-repeat category — parents buy the same products again and again, which makes it perfect for a quick commerce model.

OZi’s Growth Plan

With this new funding, OZi will:

  • Open new dark stores (mini warehouses) in other cities
  • Add more baby products and exclusive brands
  • Build stronger logistics and technology to keep deliveries under 30 minutes
  • Focus on customer care and safety standards

The Bigger Picture

India’s quick commerce market is booming. But while most platforms compete in groceries or snacks, OZi is focusing on a very emotional and important need — baby care.

If executed well, OZi could soon become a household name for young parents — just like how Zepto changed how we buy groceries.
