Former Indian cricketer joins as the brand’s strategic investor and an endorser.

Indian cricketing icon Sachin Tendulkar has joined the pre-owned car retailing platform Spinny as a strategic investor. Tendulkar will also become the company’s lead brand endorser.

Niraj Singh, Founder and CEO of Spinny, commented:

“His life and journey stand as a beacon for the values of tenacity and determination in the face of challenges. We strive to instil these abilities in everything we do and Spinny’s outlook to solve real customer problems.

“Having him onboard with Spinny is absolutely heart-warming, and we are proud to welcome our newest captain of Squad Spinny, Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.”

The Master Blaster himself, added:

“Our country is becoming younger and our ambitions bigger. Entrepreneurs of today are creating solutions that cater to this ambition. I am very happy to be associated with Spinny – a team which aspires to create solutions the right way. The team has adopted timeless values to achieve excellence in their business – trust, transparency, and integrity.”

The company has been growing in recent times and recently became a Unicorn (start-ups touching US$1 billion valuation) closing on a US$283 million Series-E round of funding.

Spinny’s current valuation is at US$1.8 billion and looks to continue growing. The company earlier in the year had signed ace shuttler PV Sindhu as a brand ambassador as well.

Spinny has also stated that through the partnerships with its Captains it will be focusing on realising the aspirations of a billion dreams.
