Frequently Asked Questions
About Kogta Financial Limited
Kogta Financial Limited is a Rajasthan-based Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) specialising in vehicle and equipment finance, incorporated on 15 January 1996 under CIN U67120RJ1996PLC011406. The company is headquartered in Jaipur with its registered office at Kogta House, Azad Mohalla, Near Railway Station, Bijainagar, Rajasthan 305624. Over nearly three decades, Kogta Financial has built a strong franchise in western India's commercial vehicle and equipment financing market. The company primarily finances the purchase of used and new commercial vehicles (CVs), tractors, construction equipment, and allied assets — serving a customer base of small fleet operators, farmers, contractors, and self-employed transporters who are often underserved by mainstream banking channels. This focus on semi-formal and informal borrowers in Rajasthan and contiguous states places Kogta in India's rapidly growing 'new-to-credit' and priority-sector lending space. Kogta Financial has attracted marquee institutional investors including the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the World Bank's private sector arm, which has participated in the company's growth capital rounds — a validation of its governance standards and social impact credentials. The company has demonstrated exceptional growth, with revenue for FY2023-24 reaching Rs. 770 crore at a 48% year-on-year CAGR. This pace of expansion reflects both organic loan book growth and geographic expansion beyond Rajasthan into neighbouring states. The management team includes CEO and founder-family member Arun Kogta, CFO Varun Kogta, and Company Secretary Karan Chouhan. The board has been strengthened with independent directors including Romesh Sobti (former Managing Director of IndusInd Bank) and industry veterans, reflecting the company's aspirations toward institutional governance. Authorized signatories include Varun Kogta, Arjun Saigal, and Robin Bhanwarlal Agarwal. With India's commercial vehicle finance market projected to grow at 10-12% annually and strong rural infrastructure demand sustaining equipment financing, Kogta Financial is well-positioned in a structural growth sector with significant under-penetration of formal credit.
