It is an NBFC (non-banking finance company) that is registered under Section 406 of the Companies Act of 2013. The main business of such a corporation is to facilitate money lending Trade, among the company's core members.
This encourages members (or owners) to save money and invest it in the company. These funds are then utilised by the company to give loans and advances to its members (or shareholders), as well as to purchase government-issued stocks, bonds, debentures, and securities.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs regulates it, while the Reserve Bank of India oversees all its financial transactions.
The Reserve Bank of India does not require a licence to incorporate a Nidhi Company. As a result, forming the Nidhi Company is simple. “Nidhi Limited” should there be at the end of the name because Nidhi Companies are registered as Public Companies.
Easy loan processing & sanction - Because the Nidhi Company exclusively lends to members, the entire loan approval procedure is simplified when compared to banks and NBFCs.
Members of Nidhi Company can borrow money from the company at lower interest rates than NBFCs
Lesser Regulations - The Nidhi Rules, 2014 govern Nidhi Companies. Although the activities of Nidhi Companies are supervised by the Central Government, they are subject to less regulations than NBFCs.
Low Capital Required - A Nidhi Company can be started with a capital of Rs. 5,00,000. The capital must be increased to Rs. 10, 00,000 or more within a year after incorporation.
Limited Liability - Directors and members' liability is restricted to the amount of capital they have invested. As a result, in the event of a loss, the directors and members cannot be forced to pay the company's liabilities out of their personal assets.
Easy mechanism for accepting deposits - When inviting public deposits, public firms must adhere to a number of regulations. However, Nidhi Company is exempt from these regulations. It may readily obtain deposits from the general public by simply enrolling them as members.
Good option to motivate savings - The Nidhi Company accepts deposits from its members at competitive interest rates, encouraging them to save.
Simplified Registration Process - Unlike NBFCs, Nidhi Company is not obliged to seek a licence from the RBI. Nidhi corporations must register with the MCA as a public corporation. The cost of incorporation is relatively also low.
Micro level banking - Nidhi Companies play a vital role in meeting the financial demands of middle and low-income populations by providing them with little paperwork. These, in particular, aid in the provision of banking services in rural and distant locations.
Low Capital - A Nidhi Company can be started with a capital of Rs. 5,00,000. The capital must be increased to Rs. 10, 00,000 or more within a year after incorporation.
