CREATING OPPORTUNITIES | FUELING GROWTH | BUILDING ENTERPRISE WE EMPOWER AMBITION
At Tyger Capital, we are driven by a mission that goes beyond business — we believe in purposeful business. Our goal is to catalyze inclusive growth and become a trusted financial partner to India’s underserved communities.
Since our inception in 2017, we have stayed committed to supporting micro-entrepreneurs and first-time homeowners in semi-urban and rural India. Agriculture remains the largest employer in India, engaging nearly 50% of the population. Yet, it contributes less than 20% to the GDP — a gap driven by low mechanization, dependence on monsoons, and limited financing options. At Tyger, we strive to change that. By offering tailored financial solutions, we aim to empower farmers, boost productivity, and contribute to the national mission of doubling farm income.
India is home to 63 million+ MSMEs, 99% of which are micro-enterprises — your local kirana store, the neighborhood fruit vendor, or a self-employed carpenter. We are here to support these unsung heroes of the economy, helping them scale sustainably and grow with confidence. Our subsidiary, Tyger Home Finance, is dedicated to making the dream of a first home a reality — especially in semi-urban and rural India, where access to formal credit is limited.
We believe in building with purpose. Our priorities align with national development goals — agriculture, MSMEs, and housing; sectors critical to India’s future. At the heart of our journey is a Customer First approach. Every solution we design is built around real needs — offering ease, speed, and transparency through digital innovation. We don’t just lend; we empower lives. Whether you’re a farmer, a micro-entrepreneur, or a first-time homeowner, we are here to be your financial partner for life.
And finally, we take immense pride in being Tygers — we are confident, agile, resilient, and we treat everyone with respect and dignity.
Tyger Capital. Josh Aapka, Saath Humara
