At this point, I am not advocating any particular candidate for NASA Administrator.

I am just desperate for someone with a 3 digit IQ.

[IndiaQuotient @IndiaQuotient]

We’re excited to share that DPDzero has raised $7 Mn (~INR 60 Cr) in a Series A round led by GMO Venture Partners and SMBC Asia Rising Fund, with participation from us.

Debt collection in India is broken—outdated agencies, low on tech, and ethics.

DPDzero is fixing it by combining AI, borrower insights, and a growing human expert network to help lenders put collections on autopilot.

In the last 18 months, they’ve grown 6×, now handle repayments for over 1 crore borrowers, and are trusted by lenders like Tata Capital, L&T Finance, and Moneyview.

Proud to have backed them at seed—big cheers to @Ananthshroff, @ranjith19, and the team!

🚀 Building India's Next-Gen Collections Infrastructure: DPDzero Raises $7M (~₹61Cr) Series A

@dpdzero (Fund IV) has raised $7M in Series A funding led by GMO Venture Partners. We participated in the round along with SMBC Asia Rising Fund, @IndiaQuotient , Sinarmas Group, and others.

Founded by @Ananthshroff and Ranjith B.R. Ramachandra, DPDzero is reimagining debt collection for Indian lenders by combining behavioral data, AI-powered agents, and empathy. They aim to build a high-performance, ethics-focused collections infrastructure for India's financial institutions.

The fresh capital will fuel the expansion of their AI-led multilingual collections platform and help establish a professional network of field collection agents. The company has already demonstrated impressive traction, growing revenue 6X in the past 18 months, and works with leading lenders including @tatacapital , Moneyview, L&T Finance, and @ManappuramMAFIL.

"Collection has been the ignored stepchild of lending; it's low tech, low intelligence, and worryingly, low ethics, as well," says Ananth Shroff, CEO. "We are building the collections company India has been waiting for—reinventing everything from the ground up, bringing back the dignity it really deserves."

@sajithpai, Partner at Blume remarked "When we first backed DPDzero, we bet on two relentless founders chasing an unsexy but massive problem. Today, they've built a product lenders love, scaled revenues 6X, and are winning serious institutional trust."

As digital lending expands across India, DPDzero is ensuring that collections evolve to become more efficient, ethical, and borrower-friendly.

two years after their seed, stoked to announce that DPDzero has raised a series a round with a bunch of sick firms (we are tiny participants in the round).

Ananth and Ranjith are killer founders, business is booming and they're on their way to build a full-stack collections co (ai agents ��� field agents)

I use AI through voice, I add voice notes probably 12-15 times a day. Gives me a great end of day summary and helps me distribute clear action items to my teams.

It even doesn’t hesitate to say - you dint get much done today. 👀
