Digidukan Raises ₹2 Crore in Angel Funding from United Plywood Directors to Bring 60-Minute Procurement to India’s Construction Retailers
Digidukan a B2B quick-commerce platform built for construction-material retailers, has raised ₹2 crore in angel funding from Vinay Gupta and Shubham Gupta, Directors at United Plywood Group, one of Rajasthan’s established construction-material businesses. The company is using technology to bring a 60-minute delivery model to construction procurement, enabling retailers to order materials on demand instead of tying up capital in excess inventory or waiting on fragmented supplier networks.
Vinay Gupta, Director, United Plywood Group, said: “Over decades in the building-material industry, I have seen that the real constraint is rarely demand; it is the inefficiency between demand and availability. Fragmented procurement, excess inventory, and inconsistent supply have constrained retailers for years. Digidukan is addressing this structural gap at its core.”
Lakshya Agarwal, Co-founder, Digidukan, said: “We did not buy this stack; we built it while we were already delivering. The next step is handing that intelligence to the shopkeeper, so Digidukan stops being a place they order from and starts being the system that tells him what to order. We are building a technology company that happens to deliver building materials in under an hour.”
From 60-minute delivery to intelligent procurement
Founded by Lakshya Agarwal and Kshitij S. Rungta, Digidukan combines construction-retail expertise with technology to modernise procurement. Lakshya leads the technology and data layer, using demand and purchase patterns to make procurement smarter, while Kshitij focuses on execution intelligence, ensuring inventory and fulfilment translate those insights into reliable, 60-minute delivery.
The company is now building towards a larger vision: moving from simply fulfilling retailer orders to helping retailers anticipate what to stock and when, using data to make construction procurement faster, more predictable and less inventory-intensive.
The company’s early traction reflects strong, repeat-led adoption among its retailer base, with monthly GMV growing 8x compared with the beginning of the year. Digidukan has achieved an approximately 90% repeat customer rate, while delivering nearly 5,000 orders to date, with an average order value of over ₹9,000. The combination of repeat purchases and rising order volumes points to growing reliance on the platform for recurring construction-material procurement.
The ₹2 crore will be used to strengthen Digidukan’s technology and product capabilities, expand into additional categories and support higher order volumes. The company will also deepen its presence across Tier-2 and Tier-3 markets, with a focus on making construction-material procurement faster, more predictable and less inventory-intensive.
The investment comes at a time when construction retail remains one of India’s large but largely offline supply chains. Retailers continue to manage multiple suppliers, uncertain availability and inventory-led purchasing, often keeping significant working capital locked in stock simply to avoid losing a sale. Digidukan is building an alternative through a technology-led procurement platform where retailers can discover, order and receive construction materials when they need them, while demand and inventory signals help make the supply chain more responsive.
