The health tech firm matches patients with doctors, hospitals and diagnostic service providers. However, in response to ET's email query, the company said it is not planning a $130 million pre-IPO round. "I'd like to clarify that the information outlined in your email is factually incorrect," Medibuddy said in a statement. "We have launched a structured fundraise process , led by Avendus Capital, with a target of $60 million. This includes $25-30 million in primary capital and $30-35 million in secondary, intended solely to provide a standard exit opportunity for a few early angel investors." Medibuddy also said it was not in a hurry for an IPO. "An IPO is certainly part of our long-term vision, as it is for many companies at our stage.
