Navadhan Secures ₹111 Crore Funding to Empower Rural MSMEs

Fintech company Navadhan, dedicated to serving rural MSMEs, has successfully raised ₹111 crore in a Series A funding round led by Nabventures, the venture capital arm of NABARD. This strategic investment aims to enhance Navadhan’s Acen Tech platform and promote substantial business growth in underserved areas.

Strategic Utilization of Funds

According to Navadhan’s founder, “We have a very calibrated growth plan regarding how we want to use the funds.” The company’s key objective is to further develop the Acen Tech platform, which is crucial for small rural businesses seeking access to working capital loans through collaborations with banks and NBFCs. Their strategy includes increasing partnerships, expanding their footprint in existing regions, and diversifying their loan offerings.

A Key Player in Financial Inclusion

Navadhan has already facilitated loans exceeding ₹500 crore, backed by a robust network of 27 banks and NBFCs amounting to ₹700 crore in debt. As a crucial facilitator, Navadhan helps banks reach micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) that are often overlooked. Agrawal, a key spokesperson for the company, noted, “Banks aspire to serve this segment, but reaching these small MSMEs is challenging. This is where we step in.” The priority sector loan status of these business loans makes them attractive for financial institutions seeking to enhance their portfolio.

Resilience Amid Retail Challenges

Despite facing obstacles in the retail sector, Navadhan has witnessed impressive growth, expanding twelve times over the last three years while ensuring asset quality. The company’s rigorous application process, which only approves 15% of applicants, combined with a hybrid model that integrates technology and on-ground customer support, has been instrumental in this success. “Our customer engagement centers and field officers have been vital in maintaining better portfolio quality,” remarked Agrawal.

Expansion Plans Ahead

Currently, Navadhan operates in 700 PIN codes across five states, with plans to extend its reach to 3,000 PIN codes before venturing into new states. This geographic expansion will allow more rural MSMEs to access the financial support they need to thrive.

Future IPO Plans

Looking towards the future, Navadhan has an initial public offering (IPO) on its roadmap, although it is not an immediate target. “An IPO is an essential step for us, but we are focusing on building a sustainable 20-year business,” stated Agrawal. The company intends to assess its situation for a public offering when its capital absorption capacity reaches around ₹1,000 crore and it has consistent performance metrics.

Commitment to the MSME Ecosystem

For now, Navadhan continues to prioritize scaling its operations, strengthening its loan partnerships, and serving the rural MSME ecosystem. This commitment to financial inclusion could pave the way for more significant advancements in rural entrepreneurship and economic growth in India.

Watch the accompanying video for more insights into Navadhan’s journey and future plans.
