Kaleidofin Capital bags $5 million to scale financial inclusion

Kaleidofin Capital Private Ltd (KCPL) has received a $5 million debt facility through non-convertible debentures from WLB Asset VIIB Pte. Ltd., a special purpose vehicle established by Impact Investment Exchange (IIX), Singapore.

The funds are earmarked for deployment across clean energy and financial inclusion sectors.

A key feature of the transaction is its Orange Certification, a globally recognised impact-certification framework pioneered by IIX, which validates financing that advances gender-positive outcomes and supports inclusive economic participation.

Puneet Gupta, Managing Director, Kaleidofin Capital Private Ltd, said, “This investment, supported by the Orange Bond certification, validates our focus on expanding responsible credit access while creating measurable economic opportunities for women and underserved communities.”

Robert Kraybill, Chief Investment Officer, Impact Investment Exchange, said, “The Women’s Livelihood Bond Series has demonstrated across multiple issuances that capital can be deployed at scale with verified gender-positive outcomes and competitive financial returns. This transaction with Kaleidofin Capital continues that track record.”

In 2025, the company raised $3 million from Triodos Investment Management, Netherlands, for lending to informal-sector enterprises, agriculture and dairy segments.

KCPL, which began operations in 2023, follows a partner-driven lending model through more than 15 originator partnerships in India. As of March 31, 2026, it had built assets under management of ₹313.62 crore and served 62,862 customers.
