Small-ticket lending of size less than INR 25k form 60% of the entire personal loan market. [3] In fact, this category has grown 23 times in 3 years since 2017. Most of these loans (73%) originate outside of Tier 1 cities.
Many of these searches happen online, and consumers need a personal loan customized to their needs. The lenders who capture them as these inquiries happen will rule the personal loan market in the near future. It is also important that Banks and NBFCs ensure credit decisioning happens instantly without compromising on the risks.

The risk profile of the lead must be assessed even before the application is completed. For this, all necessary data points must be gathered accurately from credible data sources. A highly intelligent credit decisioning system must be in place to offer instant loan approval and disbursement.
