  • The Reserve Bank of India has proposed to make micro-lending collateral-free for all the lenders, rather than just for microfinance institutions.
  • The current regulatory framework was implemented with the objective of making credit available to low-income households as well for protecting borrowers from harsh recovery practices of the lenders.
  • This regulatory framework is applicable only to Non-Banking Financial Company - microfinance institutions.
  • In India, loans below Rs.1 lakh are considered small loans or microloans.
