CredAble, AI-Powered Technology Platform enabling Working Capital Financing across enterprise ecosystems has raised $30 million as a part of their Series B fund raise, co-led by Plutus Wealth Management LLP and its associates and their existing investor Oaks Asset Management who decided to re-invest in CredAble.
Last month, CredAble disbursed 3,500 crores to over 100,000 small businesses and it is projecting an even higher disbursement in future.
Nirav Choksi, Co-founder & CEO, CredAble, said, “We are very excited to have Plutus on board as our partner as we embark on the next chapter of our growth story. Plutus have shown tremendous faith in our vision and the team at CredAble as we continue to build India’s largest working capital platform. This fund raise enables us to address the working capital needs of our customers exponentially and add value to our financial institutional partners.”
Ram Kewalramani, Co-founder & Managing Director stated, “Oaks has been a fantastic partner from day one since CredAble was no more than a business plan. They have unstintingly backed CredAble’s vision to create financial inclusion for all businesses in India and we are very fortunate to have their continued trust and partnership.”
Choksi added, “CredAble has ambitious plans to address the working capital requirements for the small business ecosystem and create true financial inclusion. More than 30% of the GDP is contributed by the small business ecosystem which is largely credit and growth starved. Being a tech-first company, CredAble will use these funds to continue to build technology to enable straight through processed working capital solutions and launch our SME Growth and Credit Platform which aims to create inclusive growth for small businesses by providing them with cash management, payment and credit tools that will enable small business owners to efficiently grow and manage their businesses.”

This will help them get access to institutional financing and also help them scale and meet with the pace of growth of their clients The company has up to now onboarded some of the best-in-class corporates and banks and with this round of funding we expect the business to scale multifold in the coming few years.”

It is focusing on various under-penetrated segments within working capital financing through a very simplistic yet holistic and win-win approach for its various partners including borrowers.
