Indian NBFC lending against pledged gold jewellery, with a microfinance subsidiary (Asirvad) for small unsecured loans.
Indian NBFC lending against pledged gold jewellery, with a microfinance subsidiary (Asirvad) for small unsecured loans.
Customers pledge gold jewellery and borrow against it for short periods at high interest, with the gold as collateral, so profit swings with the gold price and with how much the central bank lets lenders advance against the metal's value. Microfinance is the unsecured side, with more credit risk.
In one line: India's pawn-lending specialist, like a public gold-loan focused consumer lender.
Moat: narrow (distribution, process know-how). Dense branch network and gold-valuation expertise support fast, low-loss secured lending.
Headquarters: Thrissur, India · Founded: 1949 · Employees: 42,100
