Patni Family Office stake surpasses 5% in UGRO Capital
The Patni Family Office, one of India’s most active multi-generational investment groups, has built a 5% stake in UGRO Capital, an MSME-focused data-tech lender.
A regulatory filing on Monday, March 30, but dated March 27, revealed that Zodiac Wealth Advisors LLP, the Patni Group’s investment vehicle, along with 22 other entities comprising individual family members, trusts, and holding vehicles, collectively holds 79,52,860 shares, or 5.0268% of UGRO Capital’s paid-up equity.
The acquisition, made entirely through open market purchases, crossed the 5% threshold on February 9, 2026. The group has clarified that it has no relationship with the promoter group and is investing purely for long-term portfolio purposes.

According to reports, the family office invested ₹1,161 crore in 2022 alone, its highest single-year deployment, and tracks a portfolio of over 137 companies spanning fintech, retail, consumer, software, and financial services.
Meanwhile, IFU, the Danish government-owned development finance institution, committed ₹240 crore to UGRO through the Danish SDG Investment Fund to support green finance for MSMEs.
