Stability and progress of any nation depends on its economic growth. Well-set financial institutions encourage economic growth to large extents and to acquire financial assistance what could be the more convenient way than to rely on loans. However, in the process, numerous hindrances make the financial process complex in our nation.

This has made the entire process inefficient, uncertain as well as time consuming for customers as well as financial institutions.

When Rubique started its operations in October 2014 in Mumbai, it wasn't easy for Manavjeet Singh (Founder & CEO) to attract people with such an intrinsic concept, except a couple of his workmates who pinned their faith in this vision. However, the company turned a lot of heads and got approached by many people, when it earned funding from Kalaari Capital. There was no looking back for the company after that.

And to flourish this, we have kept a flat structure (no hierarchy) & culture of open feedback. It has helped us strengthen synergies & bonding between the team members & there is a collaborative effort towards company's vision.
