We ease the registration process for microfinance businesses.

The entire process of registering a microfinance company within India can be broadly classified into two stages. The first starts with the registration of a new limited company, and the second is complete with the proper securing approval from the Reserve Bank of India to operate or commence business as a microfinance company. A microfinance company is simply a kind of non-deposit-taking NBFC that deals in offering low-credit loans to individuals or a group that basically resides in rural and semi-urban regions where banking facilities are not easily available. It offers loans to farmers, small businessmen, and agriculturists with many more needy people. The loans are offered under a prescribed rate of Interest without demanding a marginal collateral value. To start a business as a microfinance company within a rural or semi-urban area, registration of a new limited company under the Companies Act 2013 is mandatory.

Our experts are well-versed and experienced in the incorporation process of microfinance companies and can help you with the entire process of registration. After the incorporation, it is mandatory to have a minimum net owned funds of 5 crores in the form of equity share capital rather than preference share capital. The limit has been reduced to 2 crore NOF for the North-East region. It becomes mandatory for companies to have an auditor’s report prepared for NOF and requires all previous transactions and investments to be mentioned by the applicant company, including its subsidiary company, in the previous years. The applicant company must furnish a board resolution in favour of microfinancing, complying with all the requisite rules and regulations laid by the RBI and central government.

Moreover, it is required to open a bank account to deposit the requisite NOF and must obtain the banker’s report prior to making an application to RBI for MFC, consisting of all the financial transactions duly made within the previous year by the applicant company and its subsidiaries. Now, the desired company to operate its business as NBFC-MFI needs to file an application to RBI along with the prescribed list of documents. After considering the application, the RBI will initiate a verification with due diligence and, if the RBI seems to be satisfied with the furnished documents of the applicant company, will possibly grant the certificate to commence the business operations as a Microfinance Company.

While planning to start your business as a microfinance company, you must be ready for the registration challenges as the incorporation process itself comes with its own complexities, ranging from the requisite process, rigid legislations, and types of licenses required to start a business.
