Increasingly high adoption of digital channels to improve customer experience and deepening penetration of internet and smartphones are projected to propel the expansion of the India digital lending platform market during the forecast period between 2023 and 2029.

India Digital Lending Platform Market - Industry Trends & Forecast Report, 2029

India digital lending platform market size was estimated at USD 62.55 million in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, the size of India digital lending platform market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15.44% reaching a value of USD 148 million by 2029. Major growth drivers for the India digital lending platform market include the rising prominence of innovative business models, a growing reliance on expedited loan processing and increasing integration of cutting-edge technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI). As customers increasingly turn to digital channels due to the rising prevalence of smartphones and broader internet access, these platforms are becoming instrumental, influencing a substantial 40–60% of loan acquisition transactions across diverse loan categories. Also, the market witnesses the rapid participation of commercial banks, either independently offering digital lending services or forming collaborations with Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) to harness synergies. Digital lending companies stand out for their streamlined prerequisites and significantly accelerated processes, necessitating only a reference bank account for loan disbursement. This has led to a noteworthy rise in the percentage of loans processed through digital channels, especially in conjunction with NBFCs.

Growth Drivers

Deepening Internet and Smartphone Penetration

The rising penetration of internet and smartphones in India is driving substantial growth in the digital lending platform market. The increased use of smartphones and a growing number of mobile subscriptions, combined with affordable data plans, have not only fostered market expansion but have also increased awareness and adoption of digital lending among the Indian population. This surge in digital lending's popularity is primarily attributed to NBFCs collaborating with a range of digital platforms, including e-commerce, ride-hailing, travel, logistics, and more, which has led to increased acceptance of digital lending across various customer segments in the country. While originally pioneered by NBFCs, digital lending has given rise to new business models, such as Digital Lending Marketplaces, POS Transaction Lending, and partnerships between banks and NBFCs, underscoring the evolving landscape of the India digital lending platform market.

Restraints

Cybersecurity Threats

Cybersecurity threats pose a significant restraint to the India digital lending platform market. As the industry witnesses rapid growth, it becomes an attractive target for malicious actors. The increasing volume of sensitive financial data being processed and stored digitally makes these platforms vulnerable to cyberattacks. Breaches, data theft, and identity fraud not only undermine customer trust but also lead to financial losses and regulatory concerns. To ensure sustainable growth, the digital lending sector must prioritize robust cybersecurity measures, invest in advanced threat detection and prevention systems, and stay ahead of evolving cyber threats to safeguard customer data and maintain market integrity.

Impact of COVID-19 on India Digital Lending Platform Market

COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the India digital lending platform market. In its initial stages, it brought challenges, including an increase in lender defaults, growing counterparty and operational risks, and a significant credit crunch for Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs). The period from 2013 to 2019 saw a rise in gross non-performing assets of NBFCs from 3.6% to 6.6%. However, the pandemic also spurred innovation and adaptation within the digital lending sector, driven by the need for contactless transactions and remote services. Many platforms adopted stringent risk assessment models and incorporated alternative data sources to evaluate borrower creditworthiness. Also, co-lending, a marketplace model, emerged as a response to mitigate risks and improve credit flow. In the long run, the pandemic accelerated the digital transformation of the lending industry, making it more resilient and adaptable to changing circumstances.
