RBI proposal to curb NBFCs' revolving credit may choke MSME funding, says industry body FISME

FISME has urged the RBI to reconsider its proposal to bar NBFCs from offering revolving credit, warning that a blanket ban could disrupt working-capital finance for MSMEs. The industry body said revolving credit helps small businesses manage cash-flow gaps, as they can draw funds when needed, pay interest only on the amount used and restore their credit limit after repayment.
