Solar Home Lighting's D.light Design Raises $6M

India's D.light Design has raised $6M in Series A funding led by Nexus India Capital with Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Garage Technology Ventures, the Mahindra Group, Acumen Fund and Gray Matters Capital.

So what draws all these moths to D.Light? Simplicity and big numbers it would seem. India's massive lower classes rely on kerosene lanterns at night. D.light says it can bring more shine to homes using solar panels.


The startup was launched by some Stanford MBAs.
