“Our journey is in its early stages, but our commitment to reshape the financial landscape is unwavering. We know lending is hard, but collection is harder. We want to solve the hardest problem first,” said cofounder & CEO Ananth Shroff.

“With economic growth, credit is set to rise, further driven by initiatives like AA (Account Aggregator) & OCEN (Open Credit Enablement Network).

DPDzero has an exciting roadmap for improving the credit landscape and we’re proud to support their journey,” said Sajith Pai, partner at Blume Ventures.
DPDzero was founded in March 2022 by Ananth Shroff and Ranjith BR, both former members of the founding group of the Setu.
