NeoGrowth Raises ₹85 Cr To Expand Digital Lending Capabilities

MSME-focused lending platform NeoGrowth has secured ₹85 Cr ($8.8 Mn) in a mix of debt and equity round led by Dutch development bank FMO, with participation from LeapFrog Investments.

The Mumbai-based startup uses its proprietary AI initiatives to strengthen underwriting, portfolio monitoring and risk management. 

It offers collateral-free loans in the range of ₹5-75 Lakh, through products including NeoCash, NeoCash Insta, NeoCash Express, which cater to different business scales and segments. 

NeoGrowth manages assets under management (AUM) of nearly ₹2,000 Cr and has engaged with more than 4 Lakh businesses. It has disbursed over ₹16,000 Cr in loans to date.

During FY26, NeoGrowth added 17 branches, taking its total branch network to 46 locations in India.
