MUMBAI: Talk about finding the perfect spot! Blyp, India’s smart parking pioneer, has parked itself firmly in the spotlight after featuring on Zee TV and ZEE5’s entrepreneurial show IdeaBaaz. The startup not only wowed audiences with its innovation but also drove home fresh funding of Rs 50 lakh from titan investor Sandesh Sharda.
Formerly known as ParkMate, Blyp is on a mission to make India’s parking woes a thing of the past. Its quick parking app promises to help users find, book, and park in just two minutes, turning one of urban India’s biggest daily headaches into a seamless experience.
Appearing in the fourth episode of IdeaBaaz (aired on 2 November), co-founders Dhananjaya Bharadwaj and Abhimanyu Singh shared how the company is reimagining the way India parks, with a focus on speed, safety, and sustainability. The show, which celebrates visionary startups, gave Blyp a national stage to showcase how technology can transform everyday life.
The Rs 50 lakh investment forms part of Blyp’s ongoing bridge round following its pre-series A funding. The capital will fuel tech upgrades, city expansions, and partnerships with malls, corporates, and institutions across India.
“Being featured on IdeaBaaz is a proud moment for our entire team,” said Bharadwaj. “With our new funding, we aim to accelerate our expansion and bring faster, more sustainable parking experiences to millions.”
COO Abhimanyu Singh added, “Our goal is to make parking effortless, from eliminating manual payments to enabling digital-first smart city ecosystems.”
Already active across Delhi NCR and several smart cities, Blyp is driving India toward a future where finding parking is as simple as a tap, no honking, circling, or stress required.
