Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) are vital in providing credit to sectors that may not have easy access to traditional banking services. However, NBFCs often face challenges in debt recovery due to the non-applicability of the SARFAESI Act, 2002. At NBFC ADVISOR, we specialize in providing comprehensive debt recovery advisory services tailored specifically for NBFCs to overcome these challenges and enhance their financial health.
