A Quick Glimpse Of the Startup’s Journey So Far With KredX
Prior to coming on board the KredX platform, the startup found it difficult to keep up with the growing demands of the business. Being a young company, managing day-to-day operational expenses had become a challenge and there was an immediate need to increase the credit line to help with business growth and expansion.
The company approached Banks & NBFCs in search of solutions that could help address their needs but there were several challenges, some of which were:
- The company was required to furnish collaterals and financial history to avail of traditional offerings despite being a young startup
- Expensive when exploring other forms of short-term and long-term borrowing
KredX Offering
KredX helped the young startup effectively repurpose their capital needs to better suit the requirements of the growing business. Sourcing credit without impacting the balance sheet was a standard that was beneficial to the business.
How We Helped
The startup was able to better manage its overhead costs on time due to increased revenue creation. In addition to this, this also led to better adoption of business strategies due to the availability of ready funds.
The logistics tech business started from a ₹20 lakh limit sanction with KredX that has now increased to a ₹3.8 Cr limit, a clear indication of massive business growth in a short span of time. The number of enterprises dealing with the company also grew manifold. The startup was able to set up tangible growth parameters due to timely revenue retention leading to the accomplishment of company objectives on time and enhanced prospects of faster business growth.
