“Regulatory provisions, which have largely kept Indian banks out of trouble in the global turmoil, have also had the unintended consequence of hindering market efficiency. Private borrowing has been ‘crowded out’ by the government, resulting in a restriction of funds to the non-priority sectors,” said Singh.

The company has started its lending operation in April 2009 and currently has a portfolio of more than 20 customers. It has around $100 million of capital and aspires to be a leading debt market player in India.
