Interest Rate Policy

At Salary Baba, we follow transparent and responsible lending practices in line with the Reserve Bank of India's guidelines for NBFCs. This policy explains our approach to determining interest rates and lending charges.

1. IDF Financial Services Pvt. Ltd. (Brand Name: Salary Baba)

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) through its notification DNBS.204/CGM (ASR)-2009 dated January 2, 2009, and the Master Direction DNBR.PD.007/03.10.119/2016-17 dated September 1, 2016, directs NBFCs and their Boards to review and implement internal interest rate models that factor in the cost of funds, margin, and risk premium. IDF Financial Services Pvt. Ltd. ("Company"), operating under the brand "Salary Baba", complies with these guidelines and has formulated this Interest Rate Policy in line with the Fair Practices Code.
