Deepinder Goyal-founded wellness wearable startup Temple doubled its valuation to $375 million through a secondary sale and launched its first ESOP liquidity programme. The company is expanding product development and team capacity ahead of a broader commercial launch within a year.

Why this matters

Temple’s $375m secondary sale follows reports that it was targeting a $500m valuation for a ₹75,000–80,000 forehead wearable and a recent signal on its ESOP buyback at the same valuation.
