Paisalo Digital has entered into a Co-Lending Loan Agreement for SME Products with the State Bank of India. This move builds on their ongoing co-lending platform and aims to boost financial inclusion for India’s small and medium businesses, especially in underserved regions.
Paisalo Digital Limited has expanded its strategic partnership with the State Bank of India (SBI) through a new Co-Lending Loan Agreement for SME products. The fresh agreement deepens an existing co-lending alliance launched in 2021, which is aligned with the Reserve Bank of India’s November 5, 2020, guidelines.
These guidelines promote co-lending by allowing banks and NBFCs to jointly fund loans to priority sectors like micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), leveraging their combined strengths in outreach and operations.
The co-lending platform between SBI and Paisalo is fully digital, offering end-to-end services such as origination, disbursement, and loan recovery. By integrating digital systems with physical presence, this platform delivers transparent and efficient credit access. The new SME-focused initiative will extend services to emerging entrepreneurs and businesses in non-metro markets.

It operates a wide rural and semi-urban distribution network and has been at the forefront of co-lending initiatives. Paisalo specialises in income-generating loans and seamless credit services tailored to underserved populations.
