HR SaaS Platform ZingHR Raises $10 Million From Tata Capital
In a major fillip to its future plans, ZingHR, a Microsoft-Accelerated HR-Tech startup, has garnered USD 10 million in funding from Tata Capital Growth Fund II, the flagship private equity fund of Tata Capital.
The investment will be utilised for further geographic expansion, technology upgradation, and to strengthen the company’s outreach to the right talent. ZingHR has been leading tech-driven transformation in the HR domain, helping organisations to align their automation transitions with desired business outcomes while enhancing the employee experience.
Akhil Awasthi, Managing Partner – Tata Capital Growth Fund expressed, “We believe adoption of SaaS-based processes will decide future winners as businesses go digital. Zing HR’s SaaS solution is robust, nimble, adopted by marquee customers and is shepherded by the astute vision and experience of Prasad Rajappan.”
Sanjay Chaudhary, Partner - Tata Capital Growth Fund, further added, “Our investment in ZingHR is another milestone in building companies that share our values and vision for the future.

Commenting on the funding, Prasad Rajappan, MD & CEO, ZingHR, said, At Zing HR, our efforts have been focused on driving an employee-centric approach while helping organisations to leverage technology in order to meet their business objectives. This funding will be critical in taking further our expansion plans and strengthening our Outcomation approach across different verticals.

We wanted to raise real Capital only once we became EBIDTA and Cash Positive, which we achieved last year”
