Who We Are

Grip is building a new category of investment options for the new-age of Indian Investors. Millennials

don’t communicate, shop, pay, entertain and work like the previous generation - then why should they

invest the same way?

Started in June’20, Grip has seen 20% month-on-month growth to become one of India’s fastest-

growing destinations for alternative investments. Today, Grip offers multiple investment options providing

8-16% annual returns and 1-60 month tenures as the country’s only multi- asset (lease financing,

inventory financing, corporate bonds start-up equity, commercial real estate ) investment platform. With a

minimum investment size of INR 20,000, Grip is democratizing investment options that have previously

only been available to the largest funds and family offices.

Finance and technology (FinTech) is what we do, but people are at the core of our mission. From client-

facing roles to technology, and everywhere in between, you’ll work alongside a diverse team who loves

to solve problems, think creatively, and fly the plane as we continue to build it.
