Members of Asomi Family

Asomi is a leading microfinance institution (MFI), currently operating in the state of Assam. With over 30 branches and 150 employees Asomi has, just within a space of 6 years, established itself as one of Assam's leading non governmental organisation (NGO) engaged in social transformation.

Supported by leading governmental and private finance institutions, such as NABARD, SIDBI, AGV Bank, AXIS Bank, etc., Asomi is a professionally managed organisation that has been accredited by leading rating agencies like CRISIL, M-CRIL etc.

Asomi believes that economic inclusion is key to realising human potential and social harmony, and microfinance is an answer to many of our current socio-political problems. Propelled by this belief, a team of young people brings an almost missionary zeal to their work, with the result that Asomi has enjoyed unprecedented growth.

Looking Forward: Operation Rainbow

Asomi is now going to launch its ever biggest venture OPERATION RAINBOW--a complete solution for farmers and the disadvantaged.

Assam has a primarily agricultural economy (40% of the state's net domestic product) with a majority of the people (85%) living in rural areas. What was once counted as one of India's most prosperous states is today a sorry picture of poverty and neglect.

On the other hand, several innovative experiments have transformed the face of Indian agriculture and economy. The green revolution in Punjab; the white revolution in Gujarat; the yellow revolution in UP and Maharashtra; and the blue revolution in Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal and Kerala have been near day miracles for all to see.

Asomi would like to integrate the lessons of these bold innovations under an integrated programme it calls Operation Rainbow.
