Burger Singh has successfully closed its Series B funding round, raising INR 82 crore at a valuation of INR 520 crore. Artal Asia Pte Ltd led the round, while both new and existing investors, including Negen Undiscovered Value Fund and Aurum Rising India Fund, also participated, thereby reinforcing investor confidence in the brand’s growth trajectory.
With this fresh capital, Burger Singh now plans to strengthen its systems and infrastructure to accelerate a franchise-led growth strategy. While India’s quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry has expanded significantly over the years, it continues to rely heavily on company-owned outlets or master franchise formats. However, structured support for independent franchise operators remains limited. Consequently, Burger Singh aims to bridge this gap by building a more robust and scalable franchise ecosystem.
Currently, with over 200 stores in operation, Burger Singh has already established one of the strongest franchise backbones among homegrown QSR brands in India. Moving forward, the company will deploy the new funding to enhance its franchise engine across multiple areas, including store design, training systems, standardised operating manuals, supply chain integration, and technology. Additionally, it will focus on strengthening on-ground market support, with the broader goal of making restaurant entrepreneurship in India more structured, scalable, and repeatable.
From a performance standpoint, Burger Singh reported revenue of INR 117 crore for FY 2024–25, reflecting steady growth across both metro cities and emerging markets. Moreover, the brand has built strong consumer connections through its Indianised menu, competitive pricing, and a distinctive brand voice. Popular offerings such as Nikku Singh, Udta Punjab 2.0, Churmur Pandey, and Bunty Pappeh Da Aloo have further enhanced recall value in an increasingly competitive QSR segment.
Kabir Jeet Singh, Founder and CEO of Burger Singh, said, “India has no shortage of entrepreneurs. What it lacks is enough high-quality operating platforms that allow those entrepreneurs to succeed in the restaurant business at scale. That is the gap we are solving. Burger Singh is building a franchise-first machine with the systems, supply chain, design standards, training, and operating discipline required to make store ownership more structured and more repeatable. We are not just opening outlets; we are building the platform Indian entrepreneurs can plug into to create successful restaurant businesses.”
This funding marks a pivotal step in Burger Singh’s expansion journey as it sharpens its focus on franchise-driven scalability. As the QSR market continues to evolve, the company’s emphasis on enabling entrepreneurs through structured systems and support could position it as a leading player in India’s rapidly growing food service industry.
