does not require you to provide any income or salary proof. Moreover, it has comparatively lower
interest rates; requires lesser documentation, and hence is processed in lesser time.
We at IIFL provide maximum loan against your gold at lowest interest rates. We have a
strong presence Pan-India and have serviced a large number of customers in a very short span. We

LOAN LAKSHMI ₹1900/- 25%
FAST TRACK ₹2010/- 28%

ADVANTAGES OF GOLD LOAN
 Gold loan doesn’t demand any certificate to show your salary or income and even no credit
card history is required. Thus even unemployed and non-working people can go for gold
loan.
 Unlike any other unsecured loan, gold loan doesn’t require many papers, only few
documents such as ID proof and address proof is enough to avail for such loan.
 One of the main advantages of gold loan is its low interest rates. Usually loan over gold is
provided at the interest of 12-16% per annum and this is quite low compared to personal
loans available at interest rates of 15-26% per annum.
 In rural areas Agricultural loan against gold is also available for agriculturist at very nominal
rate of Interest of 7% to 8%, proof of agricultural document needs to be provided.
 Gold loan is the most simple and convenient forms of loan because here all you need to do is
pledge your gold with a bank or finance company and get up to 60% of the market value of
the gold as a loan.

CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH GOLD LOAN
 Loan processing charge: While some of the service providers may waiver these charges
only ₹50 per loan, some banks do charge a processing fees are taken too expensive.
 Late payment penalty: Most of the service providers charge late payment penalty and this
too can vary from one institution to the other.
 Pre-payment penalty: Most of the service providers do not charge a penalty for repayment
before the loan tenure is over. But some may still have this charge in place.
 It is advisable to check with the loan provider before taking the loan. These charges could
change the amount that you may finally receive.
Advice On Gold Loans:
 Go for gold loan if you are confident of returning the money in time otherwise, you will be
penalized and all your pledged gold will come under the control of bank or finance company
from where you take a Gold Loan.
 While opting for gold loan check the interest rates in various banks and private finances. If
you go for private lenders then better to go with one who has been in this business for many
years.

RBI's GOLD LOAN REGULATION FOR NBFC’s
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday tightened regulations governing Non-Banking
Finance Companies (NBFCs) lending against gold jewelry.
The new rules include strict documentation for high value loans against gold and prohibition
on misleading advertisements by NBFCs such as offering availability of gold loans in a matter of 2-
3 minutes.
The amount that can be lent against gold, has been maintained at 60%. This means for gold
worth ₹100 offered as collateral, lenders can give loans up to ₹60.
Also, NBFCs financing against the collateral of gold must insist on a copy of the PAN card
of the borrower for all transaction above ₹5 lakhs and all high value loans of ₹1 lakh and above
must only be disbursed by cheek, RBI said.
The apex bank has clearly stipulated that NBFCs should not issue misleading
advertisements like claiming the availability of loans in a matter of 2-3 minutes.
RBI has also asked NBFCs to make the auction process of the gold more transparent by
disclosing the details of auction process in the annual report, including full details of the value
fetched in the auction.
The reserve price for the pledged ornaments should not be less than 85% of the previous 30
day average closing price of 22 carat gold as declared by the Bombay Bullion Association Ltd, an
industry body, RBI said.

 Time limit is a major constraint.
 This research reflects on individual customer in Mira Road only. So findings and suggestion
given on the basis of this research cannot be extrapolated to the entire population.
 Sample size of the Questioner is 100 which is very small that is not enough to study the
awareness of consumer of that particular above area.
 Respondent are not sincere and care full to fill up the questioner so we cannot find right
solution.
 As per the company rules many information was not disclosed.
 As the managers are busy in their duty schedules it is not possible for us to spend more time
in interaction and discussion with them.

stocks and shares.

people prefer LIC for insurance.
Many people know the concepts of gold loan in spite of that they don’t take
Gold loan.

RECOMMENDATIONS & SUGGESTIONS
Most of the people are not much aware of IIFL gold loan services and its benefit. So

increase awareness about GOLD LOAN SERVICES AND OTHER FINANCIAL
PRODUCTand the name India Infoline itself, the company should organize campaign. The
campaign can be weekly, monthly, yearly, it will give a good result to the company to capture
market in the competitive position.

the other NBFC’s because of their good service and personalized advice on gold loan and financial
investment product.
