On his partnership with Onsurity, Anil Kumble said: “I have personally witnessed and led fundraisers for this vulnerable workforce, who are usually not full-time employees in the ecosystem. These gig workers or off role employees, be it in the sports, manufacturing, services or technology sector, deserve a professional approach to secure their health and wellness needs. This is what I liked about Onsurity, who are in a way, democratizing access to healthcare benefits through their tech-led platform and B2B associations. Through this collaboration, I am looking forward to raising awareness about the importance of healthcare and wellbeing among employees and their families, which I feel can solve healthcare issues of India’s missing middle.”

Yogesh Agarwal and Kulin Shah launched Onsurity in 2020 with the goal of providing SMEs, MSMEs, and start-ups with an effective monthly subscription model for the health and wellness sector that provides their vulnerable workforce with essential social protection.

Commenting on legendary cricketer association with Onsurity, Yogesh Agarwal, Founder and CEO said, “We are excited to welcome the trailblazer Anil Kumble as the strategic advisor to the Onsurity family. His style of thinking, trust he commands and problem-solving approach truly aligns with our differentiated model of providing affordable healthcare, wellness, and social security solutions to the masses. His association would help us move closer to our vision of “providing digitally enabled world class healthcare benefits for 300 mn workforce employed with the emerging businesses of India. ”
