Gold loan companies like Muthoot Finance, Manappuram Finance, and IIFL Finance saw sharp gains on June 6 after the Reserve Bank of India announced a key change: the Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio for gold loans up to ₹2.5 lakh has been increased from 75% to 85%. This move is expected to benefit small borrowers, including households and micro-enterprises.

What Does the New Rule Mean?

If someone pledges gold worth ₹1 lakh, they can now get a loan of up to ₹85,000, compared to ₹75,000 earlier. This makes borrowing easier for those needing quick, small-ticket loans backed by gold.

The RBI Governor, Sanjay Malhotra, also mentioned that the final guidelines for this change will be released soon, likely by Monday.

Government Push Behind the Scenes

Just a week ago, the Ministry of Finance urged the RBI to ensure that small borrowers were not negatively impacted by stricter lending rules. The ministry, under Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, worked closely with the RBI to provide relief to vulnerable borrowers.

Conclusion

With the RBI’s decision to raise the LTV cap on small gold loans, borrowers get easier access to credit, and gold loan stocks like Muthoot and Manappuram are reaping the rewards. This move is not just good news for investors, but a meaningful step for financial inclusion at the grassroots level.
