India's P2P lending sector sees NPAs more than double, prompting stricter RBI regulations.

Non-performing assets (NPAs) in India's peer-to-peer (P2P) lending sector more than doubled to Rs 1,163 crore by the end of FY24, up from Rs 472.1 crore the previous year, according to a Capitalmind Financial Services report. NPAs now account for about 17% of total lending by P2P entities. The Reserve Bank of India has introduced stricter regulations, including increased transparency and one-day settlement rules, to address concerns in the sector, though these measures could impact growth.
