Who it's for

We build lending software across the loan life cycle: sourcing and origination apps, underwriting workbenches, loan servicing, collections and borrower self-service. It suits NBFCs, microfinance institutions, gold-loan and MSME lenders, and lending service providers working with regulated partners.

Cost depends on
  • Loan products and schedules
  • Partner and co-lending setups
  • Underwriting data sources

From application to closure in one traceable record

A loan passes through many hands: a sourcing agent or app, a credit analyst, an operations team that disburses, a servicing system that tracks EMIs, and collections when payments slip. In many lenders each stage lives in a different spreadsheet or vendor tool, and nobody sees a borrower's full history.

We build lending systems where every stage writes to the same loan record. RBI's digital lending guidelines add specific requirements — disbursal straight to the borrower's bank account, repayments into the lender's account, a Key Fact Statement showing the all-in cost, and a cooling-off period — so we build those into the product rather than bolting them on.

Challenges

Lending bottlenecks we are asked to fix

  1. Manual underwriting

    Analysts re-key figures from bank statements, ITRs and GST returns before they can assess a file.

  2. Disconnected origination and servicing

    When LOS and LMS do not share data, schedules, charges and foreclosure quotes go wrong.

  3. Collections without a trail

    Field agents collect cash and UPI payments that reach the system days later, with no visit record.

  4. Disclosure obligations

    KFS, sanction letters, cooling-off exits and grievances need consistent, auditable records.

Lending modules we build

  • Origination app

    Assisted and self-serve applications with eKYC, bank verification, bureau checks and document capture.

  • Underwriting workbench

    Statement analysis via Account Aggregator or uploads, policy rules, deviations and credit committee approvals.

  • Loan servicing

    Schedules, interest accrual, charges, part-prepayments, restructuring and foreclosure statements.

  • Repayment collection

    NACH e-mandates, UPI AutoPay, payment links and handling of bounced debits.

  • Field collections app

    DPD-bucket allocation, geotagged visits, digital receipts and promise-to-pay tracking.

How it works

How a loan moves from application to closure

Every stage writes to the same loan record, so the borrower's full history is always one search away.

  1. Borrower app or sourcing agent

    Step 1: Borrower applies

    Application details, eKYC and bank verification are captured once, whether the borrower applies alone or with an agent's help.

  2. Underwriting workbench

    Step 2: Credit analyst assesses the file

    Statements arrive through Account Aggregator or upload, the bureau report is pulled, and policy rules highlight deviations for the analyst to judge.

  3. Credit manager

    Step 3: Sanction and Key Fact Statement

    Approved terms generate the KFS and sanction letter from the same data, and the borrower accepts digitally after reading the all-in cost.

  4. Operations team

    Step 4: Funds sent to the borrower's own account

    Once the repayment mandate is registered, the loan is disbursed straight to the verified bank account, and the cooling-off window starts.

  5. Loan servicing

    Step 5: EMIs collected on the due date

    NACH or UPI AutoPay debits each EMI. A bounced debit triggers a payment link and moves the loan into the right overdue bucket.

  6. Collections agent app

    Step 6: Field visits for overdue loans

    Agents get allocated cases, log geotagged visits and issue digital receipts, so cash reaches the loan record the same day.

  7. Borrower app

    Step 7: Closure and no-objection certificate

    Foreclosure quotes and the closure letter come straight from the loan record, with no manual calculation.

Plain-English glossary

Lending jargon, decoded

LOS and LMS
The loan origination system handles everything up to sanction; the loan management system tracks the loan afterwards. When both share one record, schedules, charges and foreclosure quotes stop disagreeing.
Key Fact Statement (KFS)
A standard summary showing a borrower the all-in cost, fees and main terms before they sign. Generating it from the sanction data avoids mismatches that later turn into complaints.
NACH e-mandate
A one-time authorisation that lets the lender debit EMIs from the borrower's bank account on each due date. It cuts manual follow-up and shows a bounced payment the same day.
DPD bucket
Days past due: how late a repayment is, grouped into bands such as 1–30 or 31–60 days. Collections teams use these bands to decide who gets a reminder, a call or a visit.

  • Lending software underwriting workbench credit queue table in a web browser, with 3 rows and status labels

Cost drivers

Effort drivers for lending software

  1. Loan products and schedules

    Each product — EMI, bullet, gold loan, group microfinance — adds schedule logic and edge cases such as moratoriums.

  2. Partner and co-lending setups

    Splitting disbursals, repayments and reporting between lenders adds reconciliation work.

  3. Underwriting data sources

    Account Aggregator, bureau, GST and statement-parsing integrations each need certification and testing.

Estimates are written from your scope, with the effort and assumptions behind each line item.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you build software that follows RBI's digital lending guidelines?

We build the features the guidelines call for: disbursal only to the borrower's verified account, repayments into the lender's account, Key Fact Statements generated from the same data as the sanction, cooling-off exits, explicit consent before accessing device data, and grievance workflows. Interpreting the guidelines for your products is your compliance team's call; we implement their written requirements and keep rules configurable so revisions do not turn into rewrites.

Should we buy a loan management system or build one?

If your products are standard and volumes modest, a licensed LMS is often faster. A custom build makes sense when products are unusual — supply-chain finance, revenue-based financing, gold loans with part-release — when you need tight integration with your own origination app, or when licence fees scale badly with loan count. We can also build origination and collections around an LMS you already use.

How do you handle collections from borrowers who pay in cash?

Field agents use an app for Android that works offline, records each visit with location and time, and sends a digital receipt by SMS or WhatsApp on the spot. Cash is tracked from agent to branch deposit with daily reconciliation, so gaps are visible. Where the borrower can pay digitally, the agent shares a UPI link or QR instead. Contact timings and scripts follow your fair-practices policy, and every call and visit is logged.
