Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) is a financial institution that
does not have a banking license but is allowed to offer financial
products and services to customers. NBFC is primarily concerned with the
business of loans and advances, acquisition of shares, finance leasing,
hire-purchase, chit fund, etc. It is important to note that an NBFC is
different from the bank in ways like an NBFC cannot accept savings and
current account deposits, cannot issue cheques drawn on itself and its
depositors do not get deposit insurance and credit guarantee coverage.
Choose a Business Structure: Decide on the type of NBFC you want to establish, such as an asset finance company, loan company, investment company, etc.
Incorporate the Company: Register your company under the Companies Act, 2013, with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Obtain a Certificate of Incorporation (COI) after completing this step.
Company should already be registered under Company Act 2013 or Company Act 1956, as private or public limited company.
Company should have a business financial planning for at least 5 years.
Good CIBIL score or credit rating.
Minimum net owned funds shall be Rs. 2 crore or above
Minimum assets should be worth Rs. 200 crore or above
Must comply with the capital compliance and FEMA.
