Progcap founders Pallavi Shrivastava and Himanshu Chandra said: “The recent funding round will help us allocate resources toward our aspiration to become the largest digital bank for small retailers.

“While we are becoming relevant to many large corporate clients, we have only scratched the surface of India’s vast retailer market. As an organization, our broader mission is to be an end-to-end service provider for all retailer transactions.”

Progcap focuses on small and mid-size businesses (SMBs) and offers them access to flexible and customised capital along with other financial services.

It claims to have disbursed INR25bn ($335.57m) to over 60 corporations and 450,000 retailers.

Creation Investments partner Tyler Day said: “We are delighted to join Sequoia Capital India and Tiger Global Management in helping Progcap revolutionise supply chain financing in India and provide access to affordable unsecured financing to India’s micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises.

“The company’s exceptional growth and pristine portfolio quality, in a challenging macro environment, speak volumes about the Progcap team and its bespoke MSME Buy-Now Pay-Later product.”
