The rising popularity of fin-tech startups in India with the propaganda of easing the conduct of investing in the stock market is going to capture the untapped potential of the Indian economy.

Kaushlendra Singh Sengar, Founder at Invest19.com says, "The country is demanding a multi-lingual platform so that a farmer or a rickshaw-puller could understand as the familiar languages possess the power of catching the sight of people. The platform should be human-centric and designed in such a way that it will be easy to understand by the tier-3 cities people. A country like India, which has 90 million mobile users and everyone, has learned using the social networking apps led by its effortless design, availability of the multi-lingual facility and uncomplicated procedure. So, an aggregator platform that will be backed by various algorithms and machine learning that will work on providing the required information with the effortless process is going to attract investments from people that not only to help in raising investment multiplier but will also generate more returns for tier-3 people."

Sengar went on to add that the efforts provided by fin-tech platforms to bring tier-3 investors into the stock market is matching the desired results but their limited availability of capital to execute their operations is restricting their potential.

"The fin-tech startups are coming up with platforms that directly providing the asset class to the investors after filtering the associated risk exposure, future potential of that particular class and other necessary information that could help the investors to make the right judgment. Moreover, the display, presentation and operative structure of these platforms are shaped in such a way that a layman could invest, keeping in mind the safety of their funds by proper execution of KYC of every investor," concluded Sengar.
