Seed investment company Venture Catalysts (VCats) on Wednesday announced an investment of $250,000 (nearly ₹1.68 crore) in SaaS-based logistics reconciliation platform Don’t Scratch Your Head (DSYH).

Led by Gaurav Singhvi, Managing Partner, Venture Catalysts Surat, and Mumbai-based Zaffiro Ventures, the investment in DSYH closely follows VCats’ physical expansion into Surat and marks its first Gujarat-centric investment, VCats said in a statement here.

With a focus on the e-commerce industry, Ahmedabad-based DSYH was part of Reliance Industries’ accelerator programme GenNext Hub, and is a next-generation data analytics SaaS start-up in the logistics reconciliation space across multiple sectors.

DSYH has been addressing seller reconciliation, traditionally one of the biggest pain points in the e-commerce seller ecosystem, and allows sellers associated with multiple marketplaces to reconcile accounts, payments, returned orders and promotional amounts through a single and consolidated window.

“We, at Venture Catalysts, have always been on the lookout for disruptive start-ups that are solving global problems through localised solutions. DSYH, with its SaaS-based platform, has been developing a first-of-a-kind technology to identify and address the real-time logistics reconciliation challenges of Indian e-commerce sellers,” said Apoorv Ranjan Sharma, co-founder, VCats.

VCats has facilitated over nine investments worth more than $1.5 million in promising start-ups such as vPhrase Analytics, Vahanalytics, Siftr and ConfirmTKT since the launch of its operations in 2015.

The company has several strategic partnerships with leading industry players such as Cox and Kings, HDFC, Plug and Play, giving its investee start-ups access to large corporate companies in India and increasing their chance of success by enhancing business opportunities.
