The pandemic has brought out the major gap which highlights how the traditional banking system has not been able to fulfill the credit needs of many Indian users. True Balance aims to be the one-stop-solution and financial partner for the new to credit users.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the fundraise, Bama Balakrishnan, COO at Northern Arc Capital said, \u201cWe are happy to partner with True Balance as we see tremendous potential in the market that they cater.
