Auxano Capital, a SEBI-registered venture capital firm, has exited test-prep and edtech platform EduGorilla Community, delivering a 5.5X return on invested capital.
Auxano had first backed EduGorilla in 2020 during its maiden institutional round, after the company had raised from angels. Since then, the Lucknow-based startup has scaled its revenues 50X, secured six patents, expanded into SaaS for B2B players in 2022, and recently rolled out a GenAI-powered product that counts global large language model developers among clients.
“The space became crowded which impacted growth potential, but the founders’ hustle never dimmed. From the fund’s perspective, a part exit has been executed. We see greater potential ahead and continue to ride the growth wave,” said Brijesh Damodaran, managing partner at Auxano Capital.
This marks Auxano’s fifth successful exit, including three this year. The firm partially exited Primebook earlier in 2025 and fully exited Wiom.
Founded in 2016, Auxano Capital manages a portfolio of over 35 companies across sectors such as Industry 4.0, fintech, sustainability, distribution enablement, and enterprise solutions.
