Zerodha Co-founder Invests Rs 4-5 Crore in Cafe Amudham's Citywide Expansion

Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath has invested Rs 4-5 crore in Cafe Amudham, a quick service restaurant (QSR) inspired by The Rameshwaram Cafe in Bengaluru. The investment comes as Cafe Amudham plans rapid expansion across cities, a strategy distinct from its parent cafe.

Cafe Amudham, known for its rich, ghee-laden dosas and idlis, aims to open multiple outlets in different cities. This expansion plan differs from The Rameshwaram Cafe, which focuses on strengthening its brand in Bengaluru.

Nikhil Kamath, who has previously invested in Third Wave Coffee and other food companies, is joined by other investors in backing Cafe Amudham. Alongside Kamath, the founders of Karma Coffee, Deepak Arumugam and Sakthivel A R, and other private investors have contributed to the venture. Priyanka Rudrappa, who earlier managed an outlet of The Rameshwaram Cafe, founded Cafe Amudham.

With Rs 4-5 crore in investment, Cafe Amudham looks set to rapidly expand its presence across cities. The QSR, known for its indulgent South Indian dishes, has attracted notable investors, including Nikhil Kamath. As it grows, Cafe Amudham will offer more options for fans of its signature ghee-laden treats.
