Anand Dalmia and I are grateful to our customers, team (current as well as past), partners, and investors who helped build Fisdom with belief and passion. It has been an incredible journey over the years that is set to get better.

This is neither a sale nor an exit for us. It’s a collaboration that gives us the opportunity to build something bigger and more enduring. As we join forces with Lalit Keshre, Harsh Jain, Ishan Bansal, Neeraj Singh and the Groww team, we are incredibly excited about what lies ahead.
