Capital India Home Loans Rebrands as People Home Finance

"Capital India Home Loans, a wholly owned subsidiary of Weaver Services, has announced its rebranding to People Home Finance Limited, underscoring its vision to build an inclusive, technology-led housing finance company serving India’s vast informal and self-employed segment.

The rebranding follows the company’s $170 million investment round announced on 19 August 2025, led by Lightspeed, Premji Invest, and Gaja Capital. The new identity marks the next phase of expansion across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, with continued investments in branch infrastructure, people, proprietary technology, and risk systems to make home ownership accessible for millions of underserved Indians.

The new brand was unveiled at a launch event in Mumbai attended by dignitaries including Mr Sanjay Shukla and Mr Keki Mistry.

People Home Finance aims to drive responsible growth through prudential risk management, robust governance, and a customer-centric culture. Its differentiated underwriting process leverages technology and alternative data to assess thin-file and self-employed borrowers. The company offers paper-light, transparent journeys with clear pricing, faster approvals, and efficient collections, focusing on regions with the most significant affordable housing gap.

“Our new name says exactly what we stand for – a housing finance company built for the people of India. By combining decades of domain expertise with modern AI and data platforms, we aim to widen access to affordable credit while elevating trust, speed and transparency,” said Satrajit Bhattacharya, Founder & Vice Chairman, People Home Finance.

“People Home Finance aspires to make its mark in the rapidly growing housing finance market by deploying technology mindfully. This should help us provide a superior customer experience, achieve higher sales productivity and superior risk outcomes,” said Anil Kothuri, MD & CEO, People Home Finance. “The new brand name and visual identity express the company’s belief that home ownership is fundamental to dignity and prosperity,” he added.

Weaver Services continues to execute its strategy of building a next-generation housing finance platform. Following the acquisition and rebranding of Capital India Home Loans as People Home Finance, Weaver is evaluating additional opportunities for responsible scale-up. The new brand identity embodies three key principles: people at the centre, home as a lifelong platform, and finance made simple through clarity, speed, and fairness."
