We design and deploy enterprise tokenization networks on India's sovereign-grade distributed ledger - so your board approves it in weeks, not quarters.
The vision has always been there. The blockers are trust, sovereignty, and scalability - not ambition.
Ethereum and Hyperledger raise data sovereignty flags at RBI and internal audit. Every blockchain pilot stalls at the risk committee.
Sequential transaction processing hits a ceiling at thousands of TPS. India's BFSI volume demands orders of magnitude more.
Banking teams aren't Solidity developers. Without SQL, blockchain stays a proof of concept - never a production system.
Multi-party networks need neutral shared infrastructure. Competing proprietary ledgers defeat the entire point of tokenization.
Every one of these has active buyer intent in India's BFSI and enterprise market right now.
Digitize LCs, invoices, and trade receivables on a shared ledger across banks, corporates, and logistics players.
→Fractionalize and trade loan book slices between NBFCs and institutional buyers with programmable compliance on every transfer.
→Enable fractional ownership of commercial real estate with on-chain cap tables, dividend distribution, and secondary trading rails.
→Tokenize warehouse receipts, pharma cold-chain events, and FMCG provenance for financing and audit use cases.
→Programmable DBT instruments that release value only when defined conditions are met - reducing leakage and fraud.
→Replace siloed points with transferable, programmable tokens that work across your entire partner ecosystem.
→From architecture design to live deployment, we build production-ready tokenization platforms on Drunix. Your team ships, not just plans.
We've productized the implementation so you're not paying for us to learn on the job.
Map your use case, multi-party topology, compliance requirements, and integration points. Output: a signed-off network blueprint.
Define token lifecycle, permissioning rules, programmable compliance logic, and audit trail structure.
Deploy the Drunix network, build CBS/ERP connectors, SQL query layer, and test with your existing systems.
Run a controlled pilot, tune performance, complete regulatory documentation, and launch to production.
Drunix comes from NPCI - the same organization that runs UPI, RuPay, and IMPS. That parentage converts a two-month risk committee conversation into two days.
| Capability | Others | Drunix |
|---|---|---|
| Horizontal scaling | Limited | ✓ Native |
| SQL support | No | ✓ Yes |
| RBI data residency | Complex | ✓ Built-in |
| India regulatory cred | Low | ✓ NPCI-backed |
| Parallel execution | Sequential | ✓ High |
| Open source | Mostly | ✓ Full |
The moment I saw NPCI's name behind the ledger, the data sovereignty conversation with our board went from two months to two days.
We'd evaluated blockchain for 18 months. Web3.0 India got us from architecture to pilot in 14 weeks. SQL support was the real unlock for our team.
Our compliance team signed off in week one because the auditors recognized the infrastructure. That's never happened with any other blockchain proposal.
Straight answers - no sales spin. If yours isn't here, ask it in the briefing.
Drunix is NPCI's open-source distributed ledger - a ground-up re-engineering of Hyperledger Fabric with three critical additions: horizontal scaling (so the network grows without performance loss), high parallelization (concurrent transaction execution instead of sequential), and native SQL support (so your team queries tokenized state without learning blockchain tooling).
Ethereum is a public chain - it carries data residency and regulatory risk that most Indian BFSI boards won't approve. Standard Hyperledger Fabric is permissioned but hits throughput ceilings at scale and has no SQL layer. Drunix solves both problems and carries NPCI's institutional credibility, which matters enormously with RBI and SEBI.
Drunix itself is open-source infrastructure - it isn't "approved" the way a payment system is licensed. What matters to regulators is the data residency model, audit trail completeness, and the governance framework of the network you build on it. Because Drunix is NPCI-origin and runs on India-hosted infrastructure, it satisfies RBI's data localisation requirements out of the box.
We include a regulatory documentation package in every engagement - audit trail structure, data flow diagrams, and a compliance memo your CCO can table directly. Several of our clients have taken this through RBI sandbox review without modification. RBI SANDBOX READY
A standard end-to-end engagement - from architecture sign-off to a live pilot transacting real assets - runs 14 to 18 weeks depending on the complexity of your integration landscape (number of CBS systems, counterparties on the network, regulatory reporting requirements).
Pricing is scope-based, not time-and-materials. After the briefing call, we deliver a fixed-scope proposal within five business days. Most engagements fall in the ₹1–4 Cr range for a production-ready network. We don't charge for the initial briefing or the scoping proposal.
No. This is one of the most important practical differences Drunix makes. Because it exposes a native SQL interface, your existing database and backend engineers can query and interact with tokenized state using standard SQL - no Solidity, no chaincode, no new toolchain.
We also build a REST/gRPC integration layer over your CBS or ERP so that token operations (issue, transfer, redeem, query) are callable from your existing systems as regular API calls. Your teams experience the network as an API, not a blockchain.
Almost every blockchain pilot that stalled in that era hit one of three walls: the ledger couldn't scale to production volumes, the compliance team rejected foreign chain data residency, or the engineering team couldn't integrate it into existing systems without learning an entirely new stack.
Drunix specifically addresses all three. Horizontal scaling and parallelization handle volume. NPCI-origin + India-hosted infra handles compliance. SQL + REST APIs handle integration. The regulatory environment has also moved - RBI's CBDC work and SEBI's tokenization framework give institutional buyers a clearer path than existed in 2019.
Yes - and for Tier 1 banks and regulated NBFCs, we typically recommend it. Drunix is open-source and can be deployed on your own data centre, on a private cloud (AWS Mumbai, Azure India, GCP Mumbai), or in a hybrid topology where your node is on-prem and partner nodes are cloud-hosted.
We handle all node deployment, configuration, and initial operations. For clients who want to internalise operations over time, we also offer a structured handover programme - typically 3–6 months of parallel running where your infra team shadows ours.
Drunix is open-source under an Apache 2.0-compatible licence - which means even if NPCI stopped maintaining it tomorrow, the codebase belongs to the community. Your network would continue running. We maintain our own production-hardened fork and release security patches independently of NPCI's release cadence.
We also build abstraction layers in our integration architecture so that the token logic and business rules are decoupled from the ledger implementation. If a superior ledger emerges in five years, migration is feasible without rebuilding your entire tokenization platform.
We'll map your use case to a Drunix architecture, walk you through a comparable deployment, and give you a rough scope. No obligation.
