[Product Hunt]( [Read in browser]( [This newsletter is brought to you by]( [6 Indian startups benefitting from the economy bounceback]( India is on track to overtake China as the world’s fastest-growing major economy next year, according to World Bank projections. So far 33 startups have joined the unicorn club this year — 5 in just the last two weeks. Compare that to 40 Indian unicorns minted in total from 2011-2020. Over $23.5 billion in funding has been collected from Indian startups so far this year, which is nearly double the last two years, per PitchBook [data](. Analysts credit regulatory reforms that make it easier to do business, rising incomes and consumption, and new habit formation emerging post-pandemic. It’s a huge bounceback after the Indian economy had contracted 7.3% in 2020. Now it's a much better time and place to be in starting a company. Makers are all-in: “In 2020, I left the USA for India to build products for the Global Indian Diaspora,” Prateek Swain wrote as he launched last month — his startup [Swadesh Capital]( is a platform for comparing real estate products for investment in Indian real estate. Here are six more recent and noteworthy VC-backed Indian launches. 👸 [Leap.club]( is a community-led, professional network for women that launched last month.

Job-seekers can showcase skills through tests and apply to multiple companies with one score. ₿[CoinDCX]( became India’s first crypto unicorn last month. The makers launched the second iteration of the exchange and global cryptocurrency aggregator a year ago. And for fun, we’re also highlighting today’s launch of [Ramayana Capital](. “Today is the auspicious Hindu festival of Dussehra. It signifies the victory of good over evil.
