Notable stakeholders participating in the OFS include US Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association, Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, and various investment firms focused on microfinance and sustainable development.

The firm’s assets under management stood at Rs 6,308 crore as of December 2025, with a growing operational presence that includes 1,073 branches across 17 states. This IPO filing follows the successful entries of Aye Finance and Kissht in 2026, indicating an upward trend in the Indian microfinance sector and its attractiveness to investors.
