Testimonials
Defence Sector Startup
We engaged Kratu Associates at a pivotal stage in our journey, seeking creative funding solutions and rigorous advisory support. Their uncommon, step-by-step methodology kept us on our toes in the best possible way—moving us methodically from one thoughtfully proposed route to another. We were particularly struck by their admirable thoroughness; requesting re-examination multiple times certainly reassured us that no stone (or file) was left unturned!
Over the past ten months, Kratu Associates while pursuing the larger goal of closing our funding round of USD 2 Million, the Kratu team orchestrated a series of short-term arrangements that helped bridge our financial requirements. Their meticulous attention to each new avenue provided a safety net—ensuring that whenever one option did not pan out, they set the next one in motion. In doing so, they demonstrated an unwavering commitment to keeping us funded, afloat, and always prepared for the next phase of growth.
For startups and MSMEs looking for a rare blend of diligence, resilience, and an unmistakably serial approach, Kratu Associates brings the kind of detail-driven guidance that puts you at ease. We’re pleased to have worked with a team so dedicated to exploring every corner of possibility, and we look forward to seeing how their uncommon advisory style continues to help SMEs and startups like ours flourish.

Congratulations to the Kratu team on celebrating two successful years! It’s been six months since we started working with Kratu Associates, and during this time, we’ve come to realize that Kratu is not just a team, but a family. They’ve supported us not only in our financial growth but also in providing moral and emotional guidance. When we first embarked on this journey, we didn’t fully realize the power within us, but Kratu, as a true partner, helped us discover our own strength. We look forward to continued success and wish the team the very best for the future.
