Before charging any processing or administrative fee, consent from customer is captured digitally or in writing as per RBI guidelines.

Verification and Processing

Processing Timeline

Acknowledgment: Within 7 working days of receiving the refund request

Processing: All refund requests are manually verified for authenticity and validity

Non-Refundable Charges

Service Costs Already Incurred

These represent service costs already incurred and are not linked to loan approval or disbursal status. The following charges are non-refundable even if the loan application is rejected or cancelled:

  • Processing Fee: Charged for evaluation and processing of application
  • Stamp Duty: Statutory charges for documentation
  • Documentation Charges: Costs for preparing and verifying documents
  • Administrative Charges: Operational costs for service delivery

In case the loan application is rejected, the Company will not refund loan application fees or processing fees as these represent services already rendered.

Fraudulent or Unauthorized Transactions

Fraud Protection Policy

Refunds are not entertained in case of fraudulent or unauthorized use of payment methods unless the customer can prove the transaction was genuinely unauthorized and proper evidence is provided as per our verification process.

No Liability for Third-Party Errors

While payment failures may occur due to third-party channels such as payment gateways, banks, or aggregators, final responsibility for addressing customer refunds rests with the Company.
