Newton’s School’s Valuation Jumps 7x With $25 Mn Funding

Steadview Capital led the Series B round of funding for Newton School, an online coding training platform that is income sharing-based. The company has raised Rs 188.4 crore (or $25 million). This new round comes within 15 months of the company's previous Series A investment, which saw them pick up $5 million from RTP Global.

The Newton School, Bengaluru, has approved a special resolution to allot 10 equity shares and 5,473 Series A preference shares in order to raise Rs. 188.4 crore (or $25 million), regulatory filings indicate.

Steadview contributed $15 million to this round, while Nexus and RTP Global contributed $5.9 million each and $3.4 million, respectively. Sama Family Trust and AngelList invested the remainder.

According to Fintrackr estimates, Newton School raised fresh funds at an estimated value of Rs 1,034 crore (or $138 million). This represents a sevenfold increase in the company's valuation compared to $20 million in previous rounds.

After the allotment, Newton School's co-founders Siddhartha Mahashwari and Nishant Chandra have reduced their combined stake from 44.68% down to 35.89%.
