Exclusive: Moneyview secures Rs 100 Cr debt, appoints independent directors Consumer lending platform Moneyview has raised Rs 100 crore (about $11.4 million) in debt from RevX Capital and Motilal Oswal. The infusion comes at a time when the company has been gearing up for a potential public listing. According to the company’s filing with the Registrar of Companies (RoC), Moneyview’s board has issued 100 non-convertible debentures (NCDs) at a face value of Rs 1 crore each to raise Rs 100 crore. RevX Capital led the round with Rs 45 crore, followed by Motilal Oswal with Rs 40 crore, while Arthos Corporate and ElectroMech India contributed Rs 11 crore and Rs 4 crore, respectively. The Tiger Global–backed company is likely to raise more debt in multiple tranches of up to Rs 750 crore, according to the filing. According to a separate filing by the company in September, Moneyview has appointed Alpana Parida, Sameer Kumar Baiswala, and Anil Berera as non-executive independent directors of the company. Founded in 2014, Moneyview offers personalized products such as instant loans, cards, BNPL, and financial management tools, partnering with over 15 lenders. It also plans to expand into digital bank accounts, insurance, and wealth management services. The company claims to have over 65 million users and more than 5 crore app downloads. According to startup data platform TheKredible, the Bengaluru-based firm has raised over $240 million across multiple rounds from investors including Accel, Tiger Global, and Ribbit Capital. The company entered the unicorn club in September last year after raising $4.6 million from Accel and Nexus Venture Partners. On the financial side, Moneyview maintained its strong growth momentum and posted a 74% YoY increase in its revenue in FY25. Profits for the fintech unicorn grew 40% to Rs 240 crore during the year.
