GirnarSoft Commits to Invest $20 Million in InsuranceDekho

Already among India’s leading insuretech companies, InsuranceDekho will use this funding to further enhance its brand and tech prowess

New Delhi. GirnarSoft, known for its leading auto properties, CarDekho.com, Zigwheels.com and gaadi.com announced plans to invest $20 Million in its subsidiary, InsuranceDekho, India’s leading omni channel insurance platform. They will use the funds to invest in branding and strengthening their tech, product and sales teams.

InsuranceDekho sells insurance through a unique advisory led model leveraging on both online and offline distribution networks. These funds will also be used to strengthen InsuranceDekho’s transaction businesses and further expand its footprint deeper into the country.

InsuranceDekho recently announced plans to onboard 1 lakh insurance advisors across country. They have already enrolled 20,000 advisors successfully.

“InsuranceDekho started as a modest initiative to complete the ecosystem play. Over the years, under Ankit’s leadership, it has taken a life of its own and ranks among the leading insuretech companies in the country.

They have inherited CarDekho’s capital efficiency and tech prowess but are building a large and independent business of their own. This proposed fund infusion is our vote of confidence in their ability to build India’s most enduring insuretech business in India.” said Amit Jain, CEO and Co-Founder, GirnarSoft.

“In the first phase of our journey, we created a unique three-way marketplace of insurance consumers, India’s leading insurance companies and distribution partners. Our focus was on building an industry leading tech stack and a platform that each of our stakeholders trusted.

Despite being frugal, we have gone on to become one of India’s leading insuretech companies. Our unique consultative approach coupled with the tailwinds that the insurance industry is witnessing presents us a rare opportunity to create a large, profitable, and impactful business.

This new capital infusion will be used to expand our digital footprint. We are already a force to reckon with in the B2B space. With this round we aim to invest in branding and marketing to further strengthen our B2C platform which has been seeing strong traction over the last 2 quarters.” said Ankit Agrawal, CEO and Co-Founder, InsuranceDekho.
