The Team That Scaled UnlistedZone from ₹0 to ₹1,000 Cr GTV
We are a team of ex-bankers, Chartered Accountants, and seasoned entrepreneurs with 15+ years of experience at Axis Bank, HDFC, and Kotak. We don't just process loans — we engineer approvals.
CreditPicker was born from a simple frustration: good people were getting rejected for loans they deserved. Banks have complex internal processes, and most brokers simply don't understand them. We do — because we built those processes.
Our founding team spent over 15 years inside Axis Bank's lending division, handling everything from home loans to large-scale project finance. We saw firsthand how applications got stuck, why files got rejected, and what made underwriters say yes.
Simultaneously, we co-founded UnlistedZone, scaling it from zero to ₹1,000 Crore GTV in just 7 years — proving we don't just understand finance, we build financial businesses that deliver at scale.
Today, with a team of Chartered Accountants and ex-banking professionals, we bring bank-grade expertise to every single client. Whether it's a first-time home buyer or a ₹50 Crore project loan — we treat every file like our reputation depends on it. Because it does.
