Nbfc interest rate

(Querist) 09 April 2020 This query is : Resolved 
Is there any limit on minimum rate at which NBFC can lend money to its borrowers?

Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 09 April 2020
Though under revised RBI guidelines the exposure money of the bank to NBFC has been revised from 15% to 20% but there is no minimum rate of interest for lending the money by Non Banking Finance Companies which means the same is negotiable between both the contracting parties.

an NBFC-MFI can charge a differential rate of interest to its customers but the variance for individual loans between the minimum and maximum interest rate cannot exceed 4 per cent.

What are the charges that a customer is supposed to pay for the loan that he takes from an NBFC-MFI?

A customer needs to know that there are only three components in the pricing of a loan viz. the interest charge, the processing charge and the insurance premium (which includes the administrative charges in respect thereof). An NBFC-MFI cannot levy any charges apart from the three mentioned above.

How can a borrower find about the current interest rate being charged by the NBFC-MFI?

RBI has made it mandatory for the NBFC-MFI to prominently display in all its offices and in the literature issued by it and on its website, the effective rate of interest being charged by it.
Dr J C Vashista (Expert) 13 April 2020
The NBFC has to display prominently the borrowing and lending rate(s) of interest in terms of guidelines issued by Reserve Bank of India, if you are interested in borrowing.
Prima facie it is an academic topic for time pass debate, where no dispute is involved for consideration and obligation of experts.
Rajendra K Goyal (Expert) 13 April 2020
Agree with the expert Dr. J.C. Vashishta ji. It is academic query, also it appears that the query has been posted to test the knowledge of the experts.
