Digital Lending (DL) can potentially bring about exponential change in financial intermediation. A private sector joint study states that in India DL to MSMEs alone can grow upto seven lakh crore by 2023. To start with, GST reform and India Stack had created the operating environment for more inclusive lending with little or no physical interface. This was supplemented by host of regulatory initiatives such as those on Digital KYC, P2P Lending and industry level collaboration between Banks/ NBFCs and FinTechs. The pandemic has provided further impetus to DL as it allows business to be conducted remotely. While there has been a good growth in the area of DL, the RBI guidelines issued in June, 2020 on fair leading practices in DL is timely.
