AI · written from filings

Operates as a BSE-listed NBFC running four interlocking businesses. The Early Wage Access (EWA) platform partners with corporates to offer salary-advance loans to their employees, repaid via monthly salary deduction; 214 corporates and 30,000+ employees were on the platform at end-FY26, with 5,050 monthly active users and a run-rate of Rs 26 crore per month in Q1 FY27, of which Rs 13.5 crore came from cross-sell products like insurance and digital gold. Gold loan syndication distributes loans originated by banking and NBFC partners (ICICI, HDFC, RBL, Muthoot and 40+ others), disbursing Rs 375 crore in Q4 FY26 and Rs 290 crore in Q1 FY27, with the Q1 dip attributed to RBI restrictions. A direct MSME loan book of Rs 125 crore in AUM sits against net worth of Rs 90 crore and debt of just Rs 27 crore, leaving substantial headroom, and historical NPAs are under 0.20%. New education loan distribution via Credila and an AU Bank gold-loan alliance were added in Q1 FY27. FY26 total income was Rs 31.17 crore on an EBITDA margin of 74.52%, with employee costs at 16.6% of revenue and other operating costs at 5.2%, reflecting a light-asset, technology-led cost base.
