What is the
RainGauge Index?
 

TRMG Raingauge Index is an objective market cap, weighted index of the listed Indian venture-backed companies. The report is the most widely read publication by decision makers in India’s startup ecosystem to understand the latest trends and numbers of India’s venture economy.

Why did we
build this index?

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Indian startups and the surge in listings since 2021, we noticed a significant gap – the lack of a comprehensive resource offering insights into listed startups' valuations, operating metrics, and performance.

Recognising the growing influence of public market valuations on private markets, we set out on building an objective metric to track valuations of the Indian venture ecosystem’s most consequential companies
