Rupeeflo raises $1 Mn from Piper Serica Fintech startup Rupeeflo has raised $1 million in funding in a pre-seed round led by Piper Serica Angel Fund. Fintech veterans including Ravi Shankar (co-founder of Active AI), Kishore Natarajan, and Kedar Kulkarni (co-founder of Hyperverge) also participated in the maiden round. Rupeeflo will use the funding to roll out a full-stack NRI investment platform, introduce instant UPI access, and expand its global presence. Founded in 2024 by Dharmendra Maurya, Ashish Jha, and Manav Bharambe, Rupeeflo streamlines banking and investing for NRIs in India. Starting with the U.S. and U.K., it aims to expand across global NRI hubs. With Rupeeflo, NRIs can now digitally apply for an NRE/NRO account in less than 10 minutes and have easy and paperless access to stock markets, mutual funds, and index funds without regulatory headaches. “We see this as one of the biggest untapped opportunities in fintech. In the USA alone, NRIs have over $300 billion in low-yield savings overseas because investing in India has been too complex. We are fixing the problem so that they can participate in India's future instead of just watching from the sidelines,” said Ashish Jha.

It manages a SEBI-registered PMS, advises a Mauritius-based offshore fund, and runs the Piper Serica Angel Fund for early-stage startups, overseeing over Rs 1,000 crore in assets.
