Money@Home: IIFL Finance 100% Digital Gold Loan

Banks had stepped up their customer friendly service with the introduction of automated teller machines (ATMs) many years ago. This allowed customers to take out their deposited money any time without having to visit a branch.

Many lenders now are taking the philosophy to other modes of financial services like lending. The process of taking a loan has also changed significantly over the years as competition increased among banks and non-banking finance companies (NBFCs).

Prominent lenders are now offering products like a loan against one’s gold jewellery right at one’s doorstep.

A gold loan is essentially a collateralised loan against gold jewellery that has been pledged. Such a loan can be availed with minimal documents required for gold loan.

The basic process is the same across lenders, starting with a borrower owning gold jewellery approaching a financer. The lender values the jewellery based on the market price of gold and offers the maximum amount that can be availed.

Based on the borrower’s choice, whether it is the actual loan amount or the time period for repayment, the lender then customises the rate of interest for the loan.

The lender also presents the additional charges and fees associated with processing, managing and, at the end, repayment of the loan leading to return of the security, which in this case is the gold jewellery.

Different variants of digital gold loan

Digital gold loans can be of two kinds.

Digitised gold loan:

In simple terms, it is associated with the process of availing a loan. Owners of gold jewellery can avail a loan against the value of product through a digitised process. One can apply online and request for a lender’s representative to visit the borrower’s chosen location at a convenient time. Once the terms of the loan are agreed upon, the money is transferred digitally to the borrower’s bank account.

Loan against ‘digital gold’:

This refers to a loan against ‘digital gold’, or loan against a certified digital note that says one owns a given amount of gold even if one doesn’t hold the yellow metal physically. This is an emerging sector, much like the saving-cum-investment product of ‘digital gold’ itself.
