capital base of INR 600 Cr
RevX Capital is the 2nd Debt Fund from Rahul Chowdhury (Managed by RevX Advisors LLP)
Access to capital without diluting equity is an entrepreneur's right and we want to ensure that it is a choice one can exercise even in the most challenging times. Additionally, we want to empower companies to boost their top lines and achieve future fundraising and growth milestones without sacrificing equity, creating a virtuous growth cycle.
We embrace a vision built on three key values for entrepreneurs: speed, transparency, and partnership.
We believe in enabling swift decision-making processes and execution, ensuring entrepreneurs can seize opportunities without unnecessary delays.
Transparency is the cornerstone of our approach, as we strive to provide clear and open communication, fostering trust in all our interactions.
Finally, we value partnership, recognizing the power of collaborative relationships to drive mutual success and create lasting impact in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

We recognize that you may require capital urgently for various reasons. Our goal is to furnish entrepreneurs with a term sheet within a week, followed by disbursement of funds within 3-4 weeks.

Capital requirements can vary significantly between companies and periods. Therefore, we offer customized repayment schedules to enable businesses to utilize our capital to achieve the highest possible ROI.
Non-dilutive Capital

Significant Capital Deployment
