Everybody thought that was the opportunity for India," Saurabh adds."But there is a larger segment, which is currently under-tapped. That's when we started with fixed deposits (FDs), and I think that segment has given us a lot of love and volumes, which are very surprising, even to us," Saurabh says.Users can create FDs on the platform starting at Rs 1,000, Saurabh adds.Saurabh previously served as CEO of Navi Mutual Fund and held leadership roles at Swiggy. His Co-Founder, Harish Reddy, was formerly with the broking firm Estee.The company plans to onboard at least eight new banks and non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) in 2025. It currently has partnerships with around eight banks and two NBFCs. It also aims to broaden its marketing efforts to target underserved investors in tier-II and tier-III cities.As per its mobile application, banks currently integrated on the platform include IndusInd Bank, South Indian Bank, Slice Small Finance Bank, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank, Unity Small Finance Bank, and Suryoday Small Finance Bank.As per its mobile application, banks currently integrated on the platform include IndusInd Bank, South Indian Bank, Slice Small Finance Bank, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank, Unity Small Finance Bank, and Suryoday Small Finance Bank.Stable Money had earlier raised $20 million across multiple rounds from investors, including Z47, Lightspeed, RTP Global, and Marshot, as well as angel investors such as Swiggy cofounder Sriharsha Majety and Titan Capital's Kunal Bahl and Rohit Bansal.
