Arka Fincap Limited, a Kirloskar Group-promoted non-banking financial company (NBFC) has raised an initial investment of Rs 525 crore from The Rise Funds, the global impact investing arm of TPG.

A statement said this agreement could also lead to an additional Rs 275 crore through a subsequent tranche, subject to the achievement of specified business milestones aligned with Arka’s growth strategy and requisite regulatory approvals.

The investment from TPG will provide growth capital for Arka to expand its geographical reach and accelerate investments in technology and risk management capabilities.

We seek partners who share this philosophy, and we see a strong alignment with TPG’s approach.”

Arka offers a diversified portfolio of financing solutions spanning pre-owned vehicle financing, secured business loans, loan against property and wholesale lending.
