Oxyzo Launches ₹3,000-Crore Credit Fund: Enters Fund Management Business

Oxyzo has launched Oxyzo Credit Fund I (OCF-I) under its alternative investment platform, marking its formal entry into the fund management business. To spearhead this vertical, the company has incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Oxyzo Investment Manager Private Limited.

OCF-I is structured as a performing credit fund that will provide secured financing to mid-sized, investment-grade companies to support their growth capital needs. The fund has completed its first close and will primarily focus on secured lending opportunities.

Regulatory Status and Investor Participation

The fund is registered as a Category II Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). Its investor base includes high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), family offices, and institutional investors.

As per regulatory disclosures, Tourism Finance Corporation of India (TFCI) has approved an investment of up to 5% of the total corpus of OCF-I. Oxyzo Investment Manager began operations in July 2025 after filing its maiden fund and received regulatory approval in November last year.

Growth Plans and ESG Focus

Oxyzo’s fund management arm plans to scale its assets under management (AUM) to around ₹3,000 crore over the next four to five years across strategies. The company stated that OCF-I will prioritise investments in ESG-compliant companies, reinforcing its focus on sustainable and responsible credit.

Oxyzo operates as a technology-led non-banking financial company (NBFC) focused on lending to small and medium enterprises (SMEs). In recent years, it has expanded into structured credit and fund management through its investment management subsidiary.
