Sources said the terms of the deal are in the final stages of negotiation and that Moneyview is expected to surpass the $1 billion valuation mark.

If the deal goes through, Moneyview would become the third unicorn of the year, following Krutrim SI Designs and Perfios, which both joined the unicorn club in 2024.
Founded by Puneet Agarwal and Sanjay Aggarwal, Moneyview primarily focuses on personal and home loans through third-party lenders. It also offers credit cards, credit score monitoring, and loans against property.
