Why we reach this verdict on Poonawalla Fincorp

Poonawalla Fincorp is operated by Poonawalla Fincorp Ltd, which holds its own RBI registration. That matters concretely: the Fair Practices Code, the Digital Lending Guidelines (2022) and the RBI Ombudsman scheme all apply to your loan, so you have a named regulator to escalate to if anything goes wrong.

On cost, Poonawalla Fincorp states a ceiling of 27% APR — within the normal band for unsecured digital lending in India, though the processing fee and its GST are what decide the real number on short tenures.

Across our checks we recorded 2 concerns and 4 points in its favour for Poonawalla Fincorp, listed in full below with what each one means for you as the borrower.
