Cura Care raises ₹5 Cr in pre-seed funding led by Zeropearl VC

Cura Care, an at-home wellness services brand, has successfully raised ₹5 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by Zeropearl VC, with participation from friends, family, and notable angel investors, including Shripad Nadkarni and the late Rohan Mirchandani. The brand plans to utilise the funds raised to validate its product-market fit and enhance its customer promise by delivering exceptional at-home wellness experiences. The company also focuses on building a scalable expansion strategy for long-term growth in India’s current $60 billion wellness market.

Founded in January 2025 by IIT Delhi alumni Abhinav Kumar and Chinmay Mittal, along with Oral Surgeon Dr Paminder Singh, Cura Care aims to integrate oral wellness into the daily self-care routines of Indians by offering at-home services like teeth cleaning, scaling, polishing, and whitening, delivered by DCI-certified dentists using customised portable dental units. 

Through this investment, Bipin Shah, Founder and Managing Partner, Zeropearl VC will join Cura Care as board member.

The investment comes on the heels of Zeropearl VC’s first close of its debut fund at an undisclosed amount, marking a significant milestone in the firm’s journey to support bold, category-defining startups in their pre-seed stage. The fund’s unique selling proposition is that it offers a direct first meeting with decision-makers (Investment Committee) within 5 days of application, funding within 45 days for selected startups, and unconditional support throughout the startup journey—including assistance with future fundraising, hiring, strategy, branding, and finance support functions.

Since its launch, Cura Care has already served over 1,000 customers through at-home visits and oral wellness camps. The startup has a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of over 90 per cent and an average customer rating of 4.87.
