Nexus Ventures Partners, Sanjay Nayar’s Sorin Doubles Down on Uniqus Consultech

22, April 2025

Uniqus Consultech, a technology-led consulting firm specializing in environmental, social, and governance (ESG), as well as accounting and reporting solutions, has secured fresh funding from existing investors–venture capital firm Nexus Venture Partners and Sorin Investments, the investment platform founded by former KKR India CEO Sanjay Nayar

The Mumbai-based company has raised $20 million (Rs 170 crore) in a Series C funding round led by Nexus, with participation from Sorin Investments, it announced on Tuesday.

Uniqus plans to use the funds to accelerate its growth, launch adjacent service lines, and expand its global footprint. The company will also invest in R&D to develop Al-driven solutions aimed at addressing reporting and risk management challenges faced by its clients.

“Our latest round of funding positions us to expand our capabilities and geographical presence as we tap into this market,” said Jamil Khatri, co-founder and CEO of Uniqus. “The funding will also help us to build Uniqus Al, leveraging our deep domain skills and new GenAl models to transform how consulting services are delivered.”

This latest round comes around a year after Uniqus secured $10 million in a Series B round in April 2024, led by Nexus Ventures, with participation from Sorin. In November 2024, California-based digital transformation solutions company UST also backed Uniqus Consulting. Previously, in December 2022, the startup raised $12.5 million in a Series A round led by Nexus, with participation from Sorin Investments and some angel investors.

Uniqus provides consulting services in accounting and reporting, finance operations, governance, risk, ESG, and technology. It was co-founded in 2022 by Jamil Khatri and Sandip Khetan-both veterans from KPMG and EY.
