Wealth tech startup Fisdom has kicked off a new round with a fresh infusion from existing backer PayU. The new round has come after a gap of 18 months for the Bengaluru-based startup which picked up $7 million from PayU along with participation from its existing investors Quona Capital and Saama Capital in December 2020.

Fisdom board has passed a special resolution to allot 77,606 Series C Compulsory Convertible Preference Share (CCPS)  at an issue price of Rs 14,062.11 per share to raise Rs 109 crore or $14 million, regulatory filings show.

The tranche appears to be a part of a larger Series C round. Importantly, the company had initiated its Series B round with $4 million led by Quona in November 2017 and continued to raise funds in multiple tranches in the same round until December 2020.

Fisdom has been valued at around $145-150 million post allotment, as per Fintrackr’s estimates. It has scooped up around $37.6 million since its inception in 2015. According to Entrackr’s sources, Fisdom is likely to close this round at around $25 million, and the company’s valuation will go up accordingly.
