Ugro Capital aims to achieve AUM of Rs 20,000 crore and capture 1% market share in the MSME lending space by 2025.
Amit Mande, chief revenue officer, U GRO Capital said, "The GRO X proposition leverages our data analytics prowess and cashflow backed risk assessment methodology to deliver instant short-term credit limit to the MSMEs. The MSMEs can then dispense this credit on UPI, receive payments and pay interest only for the time the funds are utilised, thereby making it affordable and transparent. For example, a kirana store has to stock up groceries for festive season, the merchant can get GRO X limit instantly, use his GRO X limit to pay distributors for the stock, receive payments from customers to manage his utilisation and have a transparent visibility of his credit limit, debit and credit transactions, and interest payments, all on his smart phone. It truly gives all small businesses Non-Stop Business karne ki Azaadi."
