Vivek Oberoi’s ₹3,400 Crore Education Financing Venture: A Blend of Innovation and Impact.
Actor-turned-entrepreneur Vivek Oberoi recently unveiled the remarkable success of his education-focused financing startup, now valued at an astounding ₹3,400 crore. Speaking at an event in Mumbai, Oberoi detailed how the company, which specializes in non-collateralized education fee financing, achieved this milestone by combining innovative solutions with a strong social impact. A video of his address was shared on Franchise India’s YouTube channel.
Oberoi highlighted the company’s groundbreaking zero-interest payment plan for students, a concept rarely seen in the lending space. This initiative not only attracted attention but also helped the company scale rapidly, reaching 12,000 schools, colleges, and universities. By leveraging his personal brand to create awareness, Oberoi connected directly with 45 lakh students and their families, gathering rich data that significantly boosted the company’s valuation to nearly $400 million.
“When I utilized my personal brand, it wasn’t merely for business gains—it was to drive genuine social change,” Vivek Oberoi explained. He emphasized that staying aligned with his core values not only contributed to the financial success of his company but also allowed it to create meaningful impacts on countless lives. Sharing insights into his approach, Oberoi revealed that while in “start-up founder mode,” he chooses to travel in economy class, a deliberate effort to remain grounded and connected to the everyday realities of people.
This innovative and socially conscious venture showcases Oberoi’s ability to merge business acumen with a drive for positive change, setting a new benchmark for entrepreneurship in India.
