Balancehero India, which runs and operates ‘True Balance’, announced the appointment of Sonia Chhabra Gupta as its Chief Business Officer of True Credits Pvt. ltd.
During a career spanning over two decades, Sonia held various leadership positions at ICICI Bank, Citibank & Clix Capital. She has straddled many cross-functional impact roles, across banking and finance sectors essentially covering domains of business development, strategy & innovation, liability & assets, payment solutions, wealth management, core banking, and digital lending and partnerships.
Sonia holds a distinguished academic background with a master’s degree in business administration from the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT), New Delhi.
Commenting on her appointment, Gupta said, “I found the idea of ‘Finance for the next billion’ and of serving the financially underserved, especially in a country like ours, extremely compelling and exciting. While many people talk about it, very few companies have done it successfully. The way True Balance has been addressing this through technology, machine learning, and product innovation, gave me immense confidence to join the company. I am looking forward to my journey here and helping cater to the myriad needs of diverse segments through the new and interesting product offerings that are planned.”
Opining on the appointment, Souparno Bagchi, COO, Balancehero India said, “At True Balance, we are at an inflection point to achieve the next level of exponential growth and further deepen our customer focus.
