The Indian lending ecosystem is undergoing a seismic shift, with instant personal loans gaining ground as the go-to solution for short-term liquidity. The appeal is simple—minimal paperwork, instant approvals, and the comfort of applying from home.
These features are especially attractive to millennials and Gen Z consumers who prioritize time and digital convenience. For lenders, the challenge lies in balancing this demand with credit risk management.
