Digital lending startup FlexiLoans on Wednesday announced it has raised INR 150 crore through a mix of equity and debt lines. The fund has been raised from Falguni and Sanjay Nayar Family Office.

With the current funding, the Mumbai-based startup has raised INR 500 crore in a mix of both equity and debt since its inception in 2016 and banking relationships with over 13 financial institutions.

The startup will utilize the fresh capital infusion in scaling its micro SME lending and has significant alliance partnerships that will be announced this quarter by offering lending products. The startup also aims to scale its supply chain and co-lending verticals.

启动由Lunia资源:Deepak Jain and Abhishek Kothari claims to be ranked amongst the top 100 fintech innovators globally. It uses proprietary technology and risk models that focus on advanced analytics and surrogate methods for scoring customers.

Commenting on the startup, Deepak Jain, co-founder of FlexiLoans said, "With this strong commitment by existing investors and industry veterans, FlexiLoans.com is now poised to enter the next phase of its growth journey that we have clearly crafted on the lines of Profitability, Growth and Risk Control. We chose to accept this bid over other term sheets we had from a few institutional investors, given the long term nature of this capital."
