Securing NBFC registration in India is a process undertaken by companies registered under the Companies Act, 2013, overseen by the RBI as per the RBI Act, 1934. NBFCs hold a crucial position in the Indian economy, facilitating financial operations and stepping in to fulfil banking needs when traditional banks fall short in extending loans and advances.
Moreover, non-banking financial corporation (NBFC) banks are predominantly involved in accepting deposits as per the prescribed schemes and arrangements. Depositors have the option to contribute either in a lump sum or through instalments.
Advantages of NBFC Registration:
1. Low Cost
2. Easy Recovery of Loan
3. Industry Growth Rate
4. Easy Registration
