Although banks or formalised institutions have covered a large part of the country, a huge majority of MSMEs in the country still do not have access to credit options.
Due to unavailability of timely as well as flexible institutional credit, several MSMEs fail to tide over temporary setbacks and eventually have to shut shop.
Consequently, in alignment with the government of India's agenda of building financial inclusion, Lendingkart Finance is working towards ensuring easy and convenient availability of credit for small and micro enterprises across the country that do not have access to credit or are capital deficient.
Lendingkart Finance till date has evaluated over 1.5 lakh loan requests, assessing more than 5,000 variables per request to determine the financial health, comparative market performance and social reliability quotient of borrowers for further assessment of their creditworthiness.
