Six months after the Bengaluru-based company Razorpay secures a $100 million fund from Series D, the company has raised $160 million in its Series E round co-led by Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC and Sequoia India.

Other existing investors who participated in the round include Ribbit Capital and Matrix Partners.

This new development, according to Razorpay, has seen their value soar to $3 billion, making them the third most valued company in the fintech segment after Paytm and PhonePe.

Razorpay will use the fresh funds to scale up its business banking suite, invest in new acquisitions and launch in international markets such as South-East Asian countries.

Razorpay's core business is a payment gateway, and the bulk of its revenue comes from it.
