The problem

Why it matters

Lenders must give a KFS before signing, collect at an agreed place and not call before 9 a.m. or after 6 p.m.; breaches surface only in complaints and audits.

What it does

How the solution handles it

Agents check each KFS for APR, fees and no prepayment penalty, watch recovery visits and calls for place, hours and frequency, read every grievance and draft a reply in the borrower’s language. The grievance redressal officer approves every reply; trends go to the board.

How it works

How a grievance moves

Five agents check KFS and pricing, watch recovery conduct, read grievances, draft replies and report; a grievance redressal officer approves every reply.

What it changes

The difference, in numbers.

Every figure is labelled: a target the solution is built to, an estimate, a typical published result, or a proven one.
