Perfios, a Bangalore based technology start-up has introduced a Personal finance management portal targeting the Indian audience. It is similar to mint.com in that it allows for automatic updates from financial institutions. However, unlike US where there are standards for information extraction from Financial Institutions, the India financial sector is vastly unorganized and presents a monumental challenge.
Perfios is a pioneer in this space by providing a method to aggregate information from hundreds of financial institutions and provides tools for analysis for spend patterns, computation of capital gains, taxation etc.
The portal is entirely developed using Adobe Flex framework.

With its accent on clarity in reporting, stand-out design and printing, and the exclusive WSJ section, the daily has been embraced by senior decision makers across industry and government.

The new edition in provides discerning readers in Kolkata the same Clarity that the rest of the country has so overwhelmingly embraced. "The clean design and printing quality, premium and contextual content environment, an array of innovative advertising options and events, and the large unduplicated reader profile with the best audience makes Mint the choice of premium advertisers. The addition of Kolkata gives advertisers yet another reason to partner Mint", added Vivek Khanna, Publisher and Business Head, Mint.
