India's debt resolution fintech Credgenics gets $50m boost
Credgenics, an Indian fintech that provides a SaaS-based platform for debt collections and resolution, has raised US$50m in a Series B funding round.
The latest intake of capital – led by Westbridge Capital, Accel, Tanglin Ventures, Beams Fintech Fund and other strategic investors – gives Credgenics a valuation of around US$340m, more than three times the equivalent valuation achieved at its latest funding achievement.
It comes after Credgenics grew its revenue by a factor of seven and became operationally profitable. Since launching in 2019, Credgenics has established a presence in the Indian market and is expanding into Southeast Asia.
It works with over 100 private banks, non-banking financial companies and asset reconstruction companies to achieve better resolutions to consumer debt.

This funding not only accelerates our growth but also enables us to make a meaningful impact on the economic landscape of countries, unlocking new opportunities for financial well-being."
Co-founder Anand Agrawal says the fintech is in “a prime growth phase” and will use the latest funding to introduce more innovative solutions and expand its footprint in countries outside India.
