We spoke with Prashant A. Bhonsle, founder & CEO of Kuhoo, a Mumbai based fintech unlocking finance for Indian students. Kuhoo aims to become the first port of call for all Indian middle class students thinking about higher education, whether in India or abroad, premium college or not.
Kuhoo leverages advanced technologies, data science and analytics to customise lending solutions for students and enable them to get loans without concomitant worries. Their approach involves evaluating loan applications based on a student's potential to secure employment and income, rather than relying solely on traditional factors such as parental income.
In addition to conventional educational paths such as Engineering and MBA, Kuhoo offers products for non-traditional certificate courses as well as online education programs. Kuhoo allows students to apply from anywhere, check eligibility, upload documents, and monitor loan status in real-time through its user-friendly mobile application. The platform also provides flexible and customized repayment options, empowering borrowers with the ability to obtain loans without co-borrowers or collateral.
Kuhoo is backed by Westbridge Capital, and has established partnerships with ICICI Bank, offering additional products such as Forex and Insurance, and has introduced skill development programs for Engineering and MBA students.
Hope you enjoy this TRANSFIN. Podcast with Nikhil Arora and Sharath Toopran, where we converse with entrepreneurs and business operators running successful startups, profitable SMEs and family promoted firms on one end, and top investment professionals representing VC/PE/credit funds on the other.
The objective is to bring out an "actionable" perspective converging the world of business and investing.
If you're a founder and if you'd like us to drill down your model, feel free to drop us a line at [email protected]
