Additionally, InsuranceDekho is in the process of merging with RenewBuy and is awaiting regulatory approvals. “This capital will enable us to expand our reach, enhance our tech-driven offerings, and solidify our position as India’s go-to insurance platform. With our continued focus on digital transformation and customer-centric solutions, we are well-positioned to drive the next wave of insurance adoption in India,” Agrawal said in a press release. To date, InsuranceDekho claims to have served over 10.2 million customers nationwide, with 21 new policies issued every minute on its platform. It has achieved a footprint across 99% of the country’s pin codes, supported by a network of 220 K partners offering over 720 insurance products across categories such as Motor, Health, Life, and Corporate Business. According to TheKredible, InsuranceDekho managed seven-fold growth in its revenue which surged to Rs 743.6 crore in FY24 from Rs 96.5 crore in FY23. Moreover, InsuranceDekho clocked a profit of Rs 85.71 crore in the last fiscal year. This is Beams Fintech Fund's second investment in 2025, following a Rs 200 crore investment in a pre-IPO opportunity with one of India's largest unlisted NBFCs specializing in used commercial vehicle finance.
