What they do

Mirana Toys designs and manufactures AR-enabled smart toys and educational products for children aged six months to 14+ years

What happened

The startup raised a seed round of ₹18 Cr from InfoEdge, marking the beginning of its journey as a B2B-first toy design and manufacturing company

Why it matters

Mirana focuses on in-house development and large-scale OEM manufacturing, aiming to become one of the largest electronic toy factories in India

The details

  • Mirana Toys is an Indian startup that designs and manufactures AR-enabled smart toys and educational products for children aged six months to 14+ years.
  • The company was founded in 2021 by Devansh Sharma and Ravi Yadav, who previously co-founded Zemote Home Automation, an IoT-based smart home products venture.
  • Mirana raised a seed round of ₹18 Cr from InfoEdge, which formally kickstarted the company’s journey as a B2B-first toy design and manufacturing company.
  • The startup operates as a B2B-first company, focusing on large-format orders from brands and retailers, and aims to position itself as an end-to-end toy design house and large-scale OEM manufacturer.
  • Mirana produces 5,000–10,000 units per SKU, completing the entire cycle from concept design to mass production in about six to nine months.
  • The company moved from a small facility in Pune to a medium-sized manufacturing unit in Ahmedabad, with plans to expand to a much larger facility of nearly 3 Lakh sq ft.
  • The Ahmedabad facility is expected to employ 500–1,000 contract workers initially, growing to more than 1,500 workers over time.

The bigger picture

  • Mirana Toys is responding to a shift in children’s play preferences, with a growing demand for interactive, tech-driven toys.
  • The founders identified a gap in the toy market, where innovation had stagnated, and most toys were based on outdated concepts.
  • Mirana’s pivot from smart home automation to smart toys was driven by the founders’ technical expertise and the opportunity to blend manufacturing, software, and immersive play.
  • The startup aims to align with the Indian government’s push for local toy manufacturing and labor-intensive production.

About the business

  • Mirana Toys designs and manufactures AR-enabled smart toys and educational products for children aged six months to 14+ years.

  • Mirana operates as a B2B-first company, focusing on large-format orders from brands and retailers.
  • The startup aims to position itself as an end-to-end toy design house and large-scale OEM manufacturer, capable of taking a concept from scratch to mass production.
  • Mirana produces 5,000–10,000 units per SKU, completing the entire cycle from concept design to mass production in about six to nine months.
  • The company currently operates from a medium-sized manufacturing unit in Ahmedabad, with plans to expand to a much larger facility of nearly 3 Lakh sq ft.

What happens next
