India's Deep-Tech Shift: Focus on Manufacturing

India's deep-tech investment scene is changing.

Before, investors put money into many different types of startups, even if they weren't making money yet.

Now, they are focusing more on companies that make real products and can sell them.

This means startups need to show they have customers who are willing to pay for their products, not just ideas that look good on paper.

One example is a company called Quintrans, which is making special parts for machines.

Investors are also looking at areas like healthcare and advanced manufacturing.

This change shows that the investment world is becoming more serious about making sure their money is used wisely.
