Public company, workplace, funding, and market signals
Updated Jul 30, 2026
Paasa is a YC-backed, India-focused global investing and wealth platform for Indian residents, NRIs, and globally mobile professionals. It lets users invest in global equities/ETFs and managed strategies via Interactive Brokers infrastructure while handling LRS/FEMA compliance, Indian tax reporting, remittances, and estate-tax-aware portfolio construction. Public sources conflict on the exact HQ/funding totals; the safest reading is an early-stage company operating from Gurugram/New Delhi with a U.S. parent place of business in San Francisco, and a publicly visible raise of $500k on company/data-provider pages (one 2026 article cites $750k).
