QNu Labs, a deeptech cybersecurity startup constructing quantum-safe options, has raised Rs 200 crore in a Sequence A1 funding spherical led by the Nationwide Quantum Mission and Speciale Make investments with participation from Sony Innovation Fund, Gaja Capital and Artha Ventures, amongst different traders.

The newest spherical takes its all-time elevate to to Rs 375 crore.

QNu Labs was based by Srinivasa Rao Aluri and Sunil Gupta. It was incubated in 2016 at IIT Madras.

The startup will use the raised capital to speed up R&D, deepen its know-how management, and scale its gross sales and go-to-market capabilities throughout India and international markets. Part of this funding might be used as QNu’s contribution in the direction of the authorized challenge funded beneath RDI to construct the Know-how spine of India’s Quantum Safe and Sensing Networks (IQSN), it mentioned.

QNu Labs mentioned the most recent funding will allow it to additional prolong its quantum-safe know-how stack by increasing into quantum sensing and AI, stretching deployments throughout crucial sectors, and constructing the capabilities required to deal with the quickly rising international demand for quantum-safe migration.

“India has moved early on within the quantum period. The Nationwide Quantum Mission, by way of its IIT Madras hub, has laid the inspiration and with implementation timelines revealed in 2026 throughout sectors, quantum-safe know-how is shifting from coverage to business deployment. QNu Labs has spent over a decade constructing this stack and has already deployed throughout authorities, crucial infrastructure and BFSI. Funding in indigenous functionality now provides India a transparent alternative: safe its increasing digital infrastructure with sovereign know-how that meets international requirements and competes in international markets,” mentioned Sunil Gupta.

“With roughly 80% of this spherical got here from new traders globally is a robust sign that international conviction in quantum-safe safety is constructing, and QNu is on the centre of it,” he added.

Gopal Jain, Co-founder and Managing Associate, Gaja Capital, mentioned, “Quantum-safe safety is changing into nationwide infrastructure — as important to a digital economic system as energy and transport are to a bodily one. QNu Labs has spent a decade constructing a full stack in India, and is already deployed within the environments the place belief issues most: crucial infrastructure, authorities and BFSI. What attracted us is that the science is completed and the demand curve is popping — that is now a scaling drawback, and that’s the place we work greatest.”
