EarlySalary has gone on to become India’s largest consumer lending application by crossing the INR 550 Crores disbursal mark. The large demand for the products that the start-up offers, helped achieve this milestone. EarlySalary has provided over Rs. 550 Crores in financial assistance to over 135,000 Unique Customers and disbursed cumulatively 350,000 loans which has made them the first line of credit for young working Indians. Also, it is now disbursing Rs.80 Crores a month. The platform processes 60,000+ loan applications every month and disburses 35,000+ loans with a small team of just 150 people.

24 – 30 year olds are the largest user base of the application.

55% of the customers work for the top 200 corporates in the country and nearly half of them are at their first jobs.
