IIFL Fintech Fund
India's largest fintech-focused investment vehicle
CastlerX is Castler's escrow banking identity for governed enterprise money movement across India.
Castler was founded in 2020 with a single conviction: money moving between enterprises should be governed, not just fast. The largest transactions in any economy — property sales, lending, M&A, dealer settlements — have two sides that do not fully trust each other. We built the infrastructure to sit in between.
Starting with India's banking ecosystem, Castler built escrow orchestration trusted by 1,000+ enterprises and 15+ partner banks. Named enterprise customers include HDFC Bank, SBI, Canara Bank, Union Bank, India Post Payments, Pine Labs, and Mahindra Finance.
CastlerX is the identity of this infrastructure for India, bringing regulated escrow orchestration, connected banking, and agentic controls into one enterprise platform.
