Compliance & fairness

Built to align with RBI's Digital Lending Guidelines — explainable decisions, no protected attributes, auditable weights, consent-minimised data.

Explainable decisions (adverse-action ready)

Every decision decomposes into ranked reason codes. A rejection is issued with the exact, plain-language factors that drove it — and what would improve them — satisfying the requirement to give borrowers a clear reason and a path, not a black-box “no”.

No protected attributes — every input listed

The model uses only these business-behaviour signals. None is gender, caste, religion, age, or location:
  • Healthy inflow-to-outflow ratio· cashflow
  • Stable monthly cash flows· cashflow
  • Strong post-obligation surplus· repayment
  • Comfortable balance vs. EMI· repayment
  • Established operating vintage· stability
  • Regular EPFO contributions· stability
  • Timely GST filings· compliance
  • Consistent GST filing· compliance
  • Low EMI burden vs. inflows· leverage
  • Few payment bounces· leverage
  • Growing turnover· growth
  • Growing UPI volume· growth
  • Rising power consumption (activity)· utility
  • Utility bills paid on time· utility

Auditability

The production model is a transparent WOE/logistic scorecard; every bin, weight and point is versioned in git and exportable (Model & Weights page). Any historical decision can be reconstructed exactly.

Consent & data minimisation

Data is pulled only with explicit, purpose-bound consent via the Account Aggregator (see AA Consent), limited to the fields the seven dimensions need, for a single underwriting purpose and a bounded time window.

Risk-based pricing assumption

Expected loss is computed as PD × LGD × exposure, with LGD held at 40% (a conservative unsecured-MSME assumption). Rates scale with PD so expanded approvals stay priced for their risk.
