Enlite, a full-stack building automation startup, has raised Rs 46 crore (approximately $5.32 million) in its Series A funding round led by Avaana Capital, with additional participation from Claypond Capital.
The Bengaluru-based startup plans to utilise the fresh capital to scale its operations across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, while also deepening its footprint in the Indian market. A significant portion of the funds will be directed towards advancing its proprietary edge AI capabilities, telemetry infrastructure, and go-to-market strategies tailored for real estate, pharmaceuticals, smart airports, hospitality, and public infrastructure sectors.
Founded in 2017, Enlite is revolutionising building management with its plug-and-play platform that replaces traditional, wired building management systems (BMS) with custom-built wireless hardware, edge AI, and cloud-native software. Its solution offers non-intrusive deployment, eliminates vendor lock-in, and ensures self-optimization for energy efficiency, system performance, and user experience.
Since its commercial debut in 2022, Enlite has deployed its platform across more than 25 million square feet of real estate. Its clientele includes marquee names such as Prestige Group, Fairmont Mumbai, leading REITs, and major hospital chains. The company is also testing large language models (LLMs) on hardware and has filed three global patents around its innovations.
Enlite is tapping into a booming global building automation market expected to surpass $827 billion by 2032, positioning itself as a challenger to legacy infra-tech players through its next-gen, scalable infrastructure solutions.
