Saswat Finance, a Mumbai-based fintech platform, has raised $2.6 million in its pre-Series A funding round led by Ankur Capital. Incubate Fund Asia, an existing investor, also doubled its investment in this round.
The startup previously raised seed funding from investors like Seedstars VC, Sparrow VC, and Incubate Fund Asia.
The proceeds will help Saswat expand its technology capabilities, introduce new financial products, and scale operations across Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Uttar Pradesh. The funding will also be used to enhance its data and analytics infrastructure and broaden its product portfolio.
Founded in 2022 by Arun Tiwari, Indrajyoti Bhattacharjee, and Ravi Ranjan Chaudhary, Saswat Finance uses proprietary technology and alternative data, such as milk production and geographic trends, to enable efficient delivery of credit, insurance, and advisory services to underserved segments.
“India’s rural segments — over 65% of the population — are underserved by traditional financial services. At Saswat, we blend technology and trust to bring financial services directly to their doorstep. This funding will help us deepen our reach and scale operations,” said Arun Tiwari, CEO of Saswat Finance.
Saswat claims to have onboarded over 6,000 customers and disbursed more than Rs 55 crore in asset-backed loans.
