Parakh.

Founded in India by Keshav Gupta and Arjun Garg. Built to solve a major blind spot in B2B commerce: extending trade credit to counterparties without factual intelligence.

✦ The Origin Story

A lakhs-of-rupees problem solved in 10 minutes.

In manufacturing and trading hubs across India—from Kanpur and Surat to Ludhiana and Ahmedabad—business runs on credit. Goods worth lakhs move on 30, 60, or 90-day credit terms every single day. But while banks can instantly pull commercial credit bureau records before lending ₹50,000, ordinary suppliers cannot.

Under the Credit Information Companies (Regulation) Act, 2005 (CICRA), commercial credit bureau files are strictly restricted to financial institutions. Suppliers shipping ₹5–10 lakh consignments are left relying on word-of-mouth, market rumors, or gut feeling.

The Realization:

While private bureau scores were locked away, India's public registers—specifically the GST filing index and eCourts litigation records—contained massive, authoritative signals. A firm that stopped filing GST returns 4 months ago or has active Section 138 cheque-bounce proceedings in district courts is already signaling severe distress.

The Solution: We created Parakh: enter one GSTIN and get back a verified 1-page report instantly. No bloated dashboards, no black-box credit scores—just unassailable, verified public facts.

What We Stand For

Public facts, zero guesswork.

We built Parakh on three non-negotiable architectural principles:

01
No arbitrary scoresWe flag specific public records (FLAG / CLEAR / NOTE), never an opaque verdict on the business itself.
02
Fixed disclosure limitsEvery report explicitly lists what could not be found, so you know exactly where the public record ends.
03
Evidence-first attributionDirect queries to High Courts and District Registries with confidence grading (STRONG / POSSIBLE), never speculation.
