AssetPlus Raises Rs 175 Cr Led by Nexus Venture Partners

AssetPlus, the Hyderabad-based wealth-tech platform democratizing mutual fund investments for India’s salaried class, has raised Rs 175 crore in a growth funding round led by Nexus Venture Partners, accelerating its mission to convert SIPs into wealth creation engines.
Goal Seek Engine Disrupts Passive Investing
Founded by Vamsi Krishna and Arjun Singh, AssetPlus replaces generic mutual fund apps with proprietary Goal Seek technology that auto-allocates portfolios across 5,000+ schemes based on user life goals – marriage funding by 2028, kids’ education by 2035, retirement corpus by 2050. Unlike Groww’s one-tap buys, AssetPlus dynamically rebalances for market cycles, tax harvesting, and step-up SIPs, delivering 15-20% alpha over benchmarks for 2 million users managing Rs 10,000 crore AUM.
Nexus Bet on India’s $2 Trillion SIP Wave
The capital fuels nationwide branch expansion, family wealth planner hires, and embedded insurance cross-sells, targeting Tier-2 cities where 80% of India’s 50 crore workforce lacks structured savings. Nexus partner Aditya Contradicts: “AssetPlus solves the attention bottleneck – when auto-pilot wealth creation scales to 10 million families, Rs 175 crore unlocks India’s mutual fund revolution.”
AssetPlus proves wealth-tech wins through outcome certainty over asset pickers. When Goal Seek funds 1 million weddings and 500,000 educations annually, Nexus just backed the SIP stack powering India’s $7 trillion household savings migration.
