The company has been in talks for this round since last August and started signing term sheets in January, Deepak Jain, co-founder of Flexiloan.com, told Business Insider.<br /><br />Former chief executive officer (CEO) of Citigroup Sanjay Nayar — husband of Nykaa’s founder Falguni Nayar — also participated in the round, which included a debt infusion of ₹210 crore ($28 million). <br /><br />The company has raised ₹350 crore to date, which has been used for lending and investment in technology.<br /><br />The six-year-old startup plans to use this capital to scale its micro small and medium enterprises (SME) lending. It also plans to create a technological edge for its ‘Buy Now Pay Later’ (BNPL), supply chain and co-lending services. For this, the company plans to hire for the product and tech teams.<br /><br /><cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Achieving six year’s growth in the next 12 months" comment="subhead" text="Achieving six year’s growth in the next 12 months"><span data-til="noop">Achieving six year’s growth in the next 12 months</span></cmsannotation> <br /><br />Founded in 2016 by Deepak Jain, Ritesh Jain Manish Lunia and Abhishek Kothari, Flexiloan.com has disbursed over ₹1,700 crore ($200 million) to micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across 1,600 cities in India without any offline centers. The company now plans to issue loans upto ₹2,000 crore ($260 millions) —a little more than the loans it has disbursed since its inception — in the next 12 months.<br /><br />Deepak Jain noted that the company was disbursing loans worth ₹25 crore a month during pre-Covid days. The company managed to scale more than four-fold to disburse over ₹100 crore ($14 million) on a monthly basis, leading to an annual run rate of ₹1,200 crore ($160 million).<br /><br />“The $100 million will go to $150 by September and $200 million by March next year. If we are able to go at this pace, we should be able to disburse at least ₹1,500-₹2,000 crore this year. The run rates are improving over a period of time,” Jain explained. The Mumbai-based company now plans to double this run rate over the next year, with its co-lending platform contributing a significant share of growth. <br /><br />It also claims to have access to over 10 million SME through its 50+ partners like Amazon, Flipkart, MSwipe, PineLabs, and others.<br /><br />“We are impressed with <keyword id="3558137" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="flexiloans" source="Orion">FlexiLoans</keyword>’ vision, strong management team and solid technology platform for driving financial access to deserving Micro SMEs.

<ul><li>The company is moving in the right direction in terms of growing sales and expected to reach EBITDA breakeven soon</li><li><keyword id="6357120" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="paytm" source="Orion">Paytm</keyword> is among the worst performers of 2022 so far as the stock has slipped 53% during the period.</li><li>Analysts at JP Morgan expect the share price to jump significantly by 60% to ₹1,000 per share.</li></ul>While Paytm is still struggling to make profits or even deliver positive returns to its shareholders, a brokerage firm believes that it will soon reach its breakeven with moderate expenses. <br /><br />Analysts at JP Morgan believe sustained improvement in the profit margins in the last two quarters at 35%, have set the stage. In the fourth quarter of last year, its profit margins stood at a healthy 35%. <br /><br />“We believe a sustained improvement in the profit margin contribution at PayTM seen over the last two quarters sets the stage for operating leverage Q2F23 onwards as indirect costs moderate - resulting in a consistent downtrend in adjusted EBITDA loss and an eventual path to breakeven,” said a report by JP Morgan. <br /><br />The company has been making losses for 11 years since its inception, and like most startups its acquisition costs have been high. However, most startup investors concentrate on unit economics — and improving profit margins which shows that its business can yield money, is comforting to its many nervous shareholders. <br /><br />In 2022, the Noida-based fintech company is among the worst stock performers as it slipped 53%. But the tide seems to be turning albeit slowly as per the brokerage firm. <br /><br />After a period of restriction, it reinstated an ‘overweight’ rating on the stock, and sees the share price increase by 60% to ₹1,000 per share. <br /><br />While the lending business is growing gradually, the losses in the segment indicate contained delinquencies in buy now pay later (BNPL) and merchant loans. <br /><br />“Lending business scale up, an increased contribution from devices and credit card sourcing should result in consistent quarterly improvement in contribution profits which should touch near 40% by the fourth quarter of 2023. A reduction in the adjusted EBITDA loss with better cost controls in indirect expenses will be a key fundamental stock driver,” said the report.<br /><br />Paytm also partnered with scheduled commercial banks and NBFCs to offer collateral-free instant loans of up to ₹5 lakh at low-interest rates and also offers a unique daily EMI product customized for small merchants.<br /><br /><strong>End of tunnel for high expenses on employee cost<br /></strong>Paytm has been spending a large chunk of revenue in hiring professionals and in marketing expenses. Now that most of the roll out of employees is done, the indirect cost of employee hiring should start to moderate from July-September FY23. <br /><br />Reduction in costs is also a key factor in its path to profitability. Most startups end up spending heavily on customer acquisition as well as marketing. But Paytm has gained a market share of 15% in a very crowded market. It is now a recognizable brand – which can now aid its path to profitability. <br /><br />Paytm’s net loss widened by over 70% to ₹763 crore as expenses ate into its topline growth in Jan-Mar quarter 2022. <br /><br />However, not all brokerages share JP Morgan’s enthusiasm for the stock. “The business trajectory is admirable, but it’s still a long way to go for Paytm to turn profitable,” said YES Securities after March quarter earnings — and maintained its ‘reduce’ rating with a target price of ₹580 per share. <br />  <div type="image" title="paytm (1)" height="900" width="1200" msid="92054936" hostid="261"></div><br /><strong>SEE ALSO: </strong><a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="http://www.businessinsider.in/retail/e-commerce/news/tataneu-could-be-worth-15-billion-all-thanks-to-bigbasket-croma-and-westside/articleshow/92052094.cms">TataNeu could be worth $15 billion all thanks to BigBasket, Croma and Westside</a><br /><a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="http://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/flexiloans-com-bags-90-million-to-cover-six-years-of-journey-in-one-year/articleshow/92041187.cms">FlexiLoans.com bags $90 million to cover six years’ of journey in one year</a>

lack of granular data around the number of users and GMV as it is early days of the app's launch. However, it emphasized that the valuation of the company should be akin to valuing an e-commerce company. <br /><br />TataNeu, which rolled out a little over eight months ago, was only open for 800,000 Tata Group employees and their friends and family till its formal launch in April.

We live in the experience era – a world where a brand’s success depends on the experience it delivers to its customers.<br /><br />Imagine this: Just one bad experience is enough for about 32 percent of customers to stop doing business with a brand they loved (PwC study). <br /><br />Across industries, firms are therefore redirecting their efforts in effectively providing the most relevant experiences to customers across the value chain. A large part of this ‘experience’ approach today is unsurprisingly digital-driven.<br /><br />Digital adoption witnessed a giant leap in the last two years, influenced largely by the global pandemic and changes in customer behavior. Enterprises were too quick to invest on building their digital capabilities to shift to new models to survive when the pandemic hit, recover faster and grow in the post-pandemic economy. <br /><br />Statistics indicate that India’s consumer digital economy is expected to be a US$800 billion market in 2030, with a predicted 10X growth from 2020. And quite clearly, brands understand the necessity to engage their customers through the right digital experiences. The way they interact and involve the customers is evolving in unprecedented ways.<br /><cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Why Digital Experience Platforms?" comment="subhead" text="Why Digital Experience Platforms?"><span data-til="noop">Why <keyword id="2200906" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="digital-experience" source="Orion">Digital Experience</keyword> Platforms?</span></cmsannotation><br />As brands transition to providing more consistent and comprehensive multi-channel experiences to customers across touch points, Digital Experience Platforms are fast emerging as preferred alternatives. So, what exactly is DXP? <br /><br />Here’s the popular definition coined by Gartner - “A <keyword id="14132028" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="digital-experience-platform" source="Orion">digital experience platform</keyword> (DXP) is a well-integrated and cohesive set of technologies designed to enable the composition, management, delivery and optimization of contextualized digital experiences across multi experience customer journeys.” What really stands out in this definition is how disparate pieces promise to come together to serve a common goal – keeping the customer happy!<br /><br />In the digital era, customers expect personalized and always connected experience in real-time. Traditional siloed approaches often come with significant constraints in providing this cohesive experience across channels –web, mobile app, social and even physical touchpoints. That’s exactly why DXP is gaining momentum. It allows for optimum usage and continuous improvement of these various digital channels while providing centralized control over multiple assets.<br /><br />Bridging the gap between multiple technology layers and business functions is the biggest challenge that today’s technology and marketing leaders face. The shift from information silos to a more unified approach makes DXP a compelling proposition for leaders. <br /><br />The key building blocks of DXP include content management, analytics, personalization, digital asset management, and customer data management aligned to meet business goals and innovation. Until now, businesses rely on different digital technologies to meet different goals in this journey. For example, portals for content aggregation, the good-old CMS for content management, analytics for behavioral tracking and so on. With DXP, these technologies meet to provide an integrated and seamless experience to customers across touchpoints while the brand can centrally control these elements.<br /><cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Redefining ‘Xperiences’" comment="subhead" text="Redefining ‘Xperiences’"><span data-til="noop">Redefining ‘Xperiences’</span></cmsannotation><br />Brands are rethinking the whole concept of digital experience in today’s market. Their strategies no more revolve around getting more people to buy your products and services through digital channels. Businesses are aiming to be more collaborative and are in the process of shaping a consistent and positive relationship with customers.<br /><br />In the increasingly competitive market with innovative models, there is absolutely no room for error. As brands build products for the Next Billion Users in markets like India, customer engagement is critical. DXP can form the foundation of this engagement model by helping brands to ‘listen’ to their customers, act upon the data more spontaneously and create an experience that every customer can relate to.<br /><br />Quite interestingly, DXP cuts across an organization’s multi-layered experience value chain, addressing customers, employees and partners all at once. Employees especially are key stakeholders in drawing up compelling customer journeys. Employee experience almost always directly influences customer experience. Combining these often-disconnected pieces could potentially transform digital experiences for the better.<br /><cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="The way forward" comment="subhead" text="The way forward"><span data-til="noop">The way forward</span></cmsannotation><br />The global digital experience platform market size is estimated to reach USD 30.41 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 13.3% over the forecast period, according to a recent report by Grand View Research, Inc. <br /><br />Further, the explosion of data, integration of advanced technologies like AI (artificial intelligence), ML (machine learning) and advanced analytics have led to the availability of increasingly sophisticated DXP product offerings in the market. The cloud segment of DXP is expected to grow at higher rates in the coming days.<br /><br />As brands buckle down on deciphering customer needs and fine-tuning customer journeys, DXP is predicted to play a central role. <br /><br /><strong>SEE ALSO:<br /><a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/which-devices-will-support-ios-16-and-ipados-16-upgrade/articleshow/92050520.cms">iOS 16 update – here are the devices that will support iOS 16 and iPadOS 16</a><br /></strong><a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="http://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/flexiloans-com-bags-90-million-to-cover-six-years-of-journey-in-one-year/articleshow/92041187.cms"><strong>FlexiLoans.com bags $90 million to cover six years’ of journey in one year</strong></a><br />

Digital experience platforms stop customers from abandoning brands after a bad experience

<ul><li>It only took 60 days for the digital lending startup <keyword id="6557529" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="kreditbee" source="Orion">KreditBee</keyword> to issue 100,000 credit-based payments cards.</li><li>The company claims that its $2 billion loan book of 5.5 million users has set the pace of this growth.</li><li>KreditBee claims that the trigger for this card has been the consumption habits of its users.</li></ul>Credit-based payment cards are getting quite an uptick as people’s consumption habits have taken a turn towards all things digital. As more and more users are getting comfortable spending online, the lack of payment solutions is not helping in any way. <br /><br />This has pushed many Indian brands to roll out credit-based digital payment offering for customers to directly transact with the merchants. Over the last three months, PayU co-founder Nitin Gupta's Uni startup and Motilal Oswal-backed digital lending platform KreditBee have been trying to do just that.<br /><br />It only took 60 days for the digital lending startup KreditBee to issue 100,000 credit-based payments cards. Impressed by the short timeline of this milestone, the fintech startup is now aiming to issue a million such cards by the end of March 2022. It claims to be well within the pace to achieve this target. <br /><br />The company claims that they are adding about 5,000 users on a daily basis at the moment and that is the basis of the latest target.<br /><br />Madhusudan Ekambaram, co-founder and chief executive of KreditBee, told Business Insider that the company will issue another 120,000 such credit-based payment cards in the month of October.<br /><br />This will take the total tally to 220,000 since the launch of the card in August 2021. <br /><br />The card offers a limit of ₹10,000 and increases up to ₹1,00,000 based on know-your-customer (KYC). The customer has to repay the amount in 45 days.<br /><br />KreditBee — founded by Ekambaram and Karthikeyan K in May 2018 — is an instant personal loan platform for self-employed and salaried professionals. The company is backed by Mirae Asset-Naver Asia Growth Fund, PremjiInvest and others.<br /><br />Target audience for KreditBee<br /><table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;" class="redcator-table-advance"><colgroup></colgroup><col /><col /><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Criteria<br /><br /></td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">What do they do?<br /><br /></td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Set 1<br /><br /></td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Self-employed and salaried individuals from Tier II and III cities.

This pushed the fintech startup to test out a digital card that will allow its customers to directly buy products online.<br /><br />In addition, the card also allows KreditBee to interact with merchants directly and expand its data bank further. <br />                                                                          <div type="image" title="kreitbee revenue" msid="87161182" hostid="261"></div><br />The company’s profitability took a hit in the financial year 2021 due to COVID-19 pandemic, but it is back on track to report another profitable year, Ekambaram said.<br /><br /><cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Who else does KreditBee need to watch out for?" text="Who else does KreditBee need to watch out for?"><span data-til="noop">Who else does KreditBee need to watch out for?</span></cmsannotation><br /><br />Uni, which too offers digital credit-based payments cards, has issued over <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/only-3-in-100-indians-have-a-credit-card-this-former-payu-india-cofounder-is-hoping-to-change-that/articleshow/86089396.cms">50,000 customers to date and is adding over 1,000 new additions</a> on a daily basis. The company — launched last year and started operations in June 2021 — issues a special Visa 1/3 card, in partnership with RBL Bank and Mauritius-based SBM Bank, to its customers. <br /><br />This offering works pretty much like a credit card, but divides all of the customers transactions into three installments that have to be repaid over a period of three months without any interest. The recently launched company aims to issue a million cards by the end of March 2022.

The aim of providing this data is so that lenders are better informed about their decisions and can fashion their loan decision-making models accordingly. <br /><br />As with most tech companies, Amazon is utilising machine learning capabilities in Lender Central.<br /><br />According to <a href="http://www.thehindu.com/business/amazon-india-unveils-seller-lending-network-uses-machine-learning-to-facilitate-loans/article24156611.ece">the company</a>, using machine learning models, they can issue early warning signals and implement qualitative improvements to a lender’s loan book.

But that service is limited to small business entrepreneurs and is an ‘invite-only’ proposition. <br /><br />On the other hand, SLN is an ‘India-first’ initiative by the company. It allows all sellers on the e-commerce platform to apply for loans and they can initiate the process by filling out an online application. <br /><br />The underlying condition seems to be that sellers should have a business history with Amazon India of 4-6 months.<br />
