History

[edit]

Amaha was founded in 2016 by psychiatrist and healthcare entrepreneur Amit Malik as the mental health organisation InnerHour, before later rebranding under its current name.[4][5] In 2019, social entrepreneur and global mental health ambassador Neha Kirpal joined as co-founder.[6] In 2022, Amaha acquired and partnered with Children First, a Delhi NCR–based child and adolescent mental health institute established in 2008 that has supported more than 12,000 families,[1] and in May 2023 it opened its first three in-person clinics in Bengaluru, Delhi NCR and Mumbai.[7] The organisation's expansion has been supported by corporate collaborations and external funding, including an October 2023 partnership with Harbinger Group to promote mental health support[8] and a US$6 million funding round in January 2024 led by Fireside Ventures.[9] Overall, Amaha has partnered with more than one hundred companies to provide mental health services to their employees.[10][11]

In 2025, Amaha partnered with Archish IVF Centre to provide patient support and mental-health services,[12] collaborated with Air India to offer free and confidential services to airline employees,[13] and opened its first super-specialty in-patient mental health hospital in Bengaluru, which was inaugurated by Karnataka health minister Dinesh Gundu Rao.[14]
