With a vision of empowering the AGRI, Allied AGRI, MSME Segment Women and Small Businesses, Paisalo Digital Limited on Wednesday signed a Co-lending loan agreement with State Bank of India.
This agreement is an extension of the already up and running Co-Origination of loan platform with State Bank of India, to make it in conformity with the latest RBI circular on Co-lending of loans as released on 05 November 2020.
