Commenting on the investment, Sanjay Jain, Partner at Bharat Inclusion Seed Fund added, “India is still among the least penetrated flexi staffing markets globally with merely 0.5 percent of the workforce employed in a flexible manner as against 3-4 percent globally. With the increasing formalisation of the economy, GST, labour law reforms, COVID and increasing number of enterprises shifting to flexi-staffing, crowd-sourced platforms are poised for the next leg of growth over the long-term”.
