Fintech firm PayNearby has announced plans to launch an initial public offering (IPO) in the coming financial year, targeting growth and expansion. The company's founder, MD, and CEO Anand Kumar Bajaj revealed discussions with three merchant bankers and expects to finalize one soon to proceed with the IPO process, including filing a Draft Red Herring Prospectus with SEBI.

PayNearby reported an impressive gross revenue of Rs 300 crore, earning a profit of Rs 12 crore in FY25. The company's Distribution-as-a-Service (DaaS) model capitalizes on retail stores to offer various services like cash withdrawal and bill payment, projecting a 10 per cent revenue increase this fiscal.

A key initiative, Digital Naari, empowers women in Tier 2 and semi-urban areas by providing digital tools to earn sustainable incomes. The program supports the government's Lakhpati Didi vision, aiming to onboard 20 lakh Digital Pradhans and Digital Naaris within five years, generating significant socio-economic impact.
