Confirming the investment on Twitter, Pine Labs CEO Amrish Rau says the company is “fortunate to build in the fintech space and [we] realise we have much to do”.

The fintech has previously seen investment from the likes of Sequoia Capital, Temasek Holdings, PayPal and Mastercard.

The company closed a $600 million funding round in July last year before receiving a further $100 million in capital from US firm Invesco Developing Markets Fund in September.

Pine Labs provides a cloud-based commerce platform offering payment acceptance and merchant commerce solutions, including enterprise automation systems such as inventory management and customer relationship management.

The Economic Times reported in January that Pine Labs filed an initial public offering (IPO) worth $500 million with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is seeking a valuation between $6 billion and $7 billion.
