“From reaching 1,000 entrepreneurs in our first 100 days, Satyahas now successfully made a giant leap by offering loans to 2 lakh entrepreneurs. This was possible owing to Satya’s high touch, and advanced-technology-based model supported by a cashless and paperless approach. Having achieved this feat, we plan on keeping up the work of empowering more and more people at the lowest rung of social ladder, especially women who are looking to start or expand their businesses. By the year 2025, our goal is to give a socio-economic boost to 5 million households in both rural and urban markets. Our objective is to become the preferred choice for underserved people looking for funds to create their enterprise and boost their chances of earning a stable livelihood” Said
