UK-based business management and fintech platform Tide has announced a significant expansion in India with plans to invest £500 million (₹6,000 crore) over the next 5 years, starting in 2026, as per the news reports. The move aims to boost the company’s long-term presence in India while creating over 800 new jobs within the next 12 months.
This latest investment follows Tide’s earlier commitment of £100 million made in 2021, which the company successfully delivered ahead of schedule. With the new funding, Tide aims to strengthen its India-based operations and product ecosystem across product development, software engineering, marketing, member support, and operations.
The company plans to expand its India workforce from 1,500 to 2,300 employees within a year, enhancing its operational capacity across its offices in Delhi, Hyderabad, and Gurugram. According to Tide, India’s strong talent base will play a crucial role in executing its global expansion strategy, with the country serving as a key hub for innovation and product delivery.
India has quickly become Tide’s fastest-growing market since its launch in late 2022, with over 8,00,000 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) now using Tide’s platform. These Indian SMEs represent the majority of Tide’s 1.6 million global member base.
As per the news reports, Gurjodhpal Singh, CEO of Tide India, added, “This new investment will deepen our product investment in India and accelerate localisation of solutions to meet the unique needs of small businesses in the country.”
