|May 07, 2025
THE recent draft RBI directions on loans against gold collateral, aimed at harmonising the regulatory framework across regulated entities, likely to hit the growth of pure-play gold loan companies.
The draft was brought to address differences in lending practices, thus creating a level playing field and structurally strengthening the sector.
The draft directions, issued last month, come in the backdrop of the central bank in September 2024 highlighting irregular practices amid a significant rise in loan against gold portfolio of some lenders. The RBI had asked the lenders to review their policies, processes and practices to identify gaps and initiate remedial measures in a time-bound manner.
