Homegrown quick service restaurant (QSR) chain Burger Singh has raised Rs 82 crore in its Series B funding round, taking its valuation to Rs 520 crore. The round was led by Artal Asia, with participation from investors such as Negen Undiscovered Value Fund and Aurum Rising India Fund. This fresh capital signals strong investor confidence in India’s growing appetite for affordable and localised fast-food brands.
Franchise-First Model to Drive Growth
Burger Singh plans to utilise the funds to strengthen its franchise-led expansion strategy. The company is focusing on building a scalable platform by improving supply chain systems, technology infrastructure, staff training, and overall store operations. Its franchise-first approach allows local entrepreneurs to run outlets with structured backend support, making it easier to expand rapidly across markets.
Founder and CEO Kabir Jeet Singh believes that India has strong entrepreneurial potential but lacks organised support systems in the restaurant space. Burger Singh aims to bridge this gap by offering a structured and scalable business model.
Expansion Plans and Market Presence
The brand currently operates over 200 outlets across more than 75 cities, covering both metro and non-metro markets. Its hybrid model of company-owned and franchise outlets has enabled faster penetration into tier-2 and tier-3 cities.
Going forward, Burger Singh aims to reach 300 outlets by 2026 and scale up to 1,000 outlets by 2030, aligning with rising demand for budget-friendly QSR options.
Financial Growth and Market Competition
Burger Singh has reported strong financial growth, with revenue rising significantly while losses have reduced sharply. This improving financial performance has made the company an attractive bet for investors.
Operating in a competitive market alongside global giants like McDonald’s, Burger King, and Wendy’s, Burger Singh stands out with its Indianised menu and value-driven offerings. With fresh funding and a clear roadmap, the brand is well-positioned to expand its footprint in India’s QSR landscape.
