Transforming Loan Lifecycle Management
for a FinTech Company
Project Brief
A leading non-banking financial company (NBFC) aimed to remove financial barriers to education by offering tailored loan products. Operating in multiple cities with expansion plans, the company required a comprehensive loan lifecycle management solution that could scale with their growing needs.
When the NBFC came to us, they had an existing product with a lot of issues. Our team re-engineered the product to make it secure, scalable, compliant, and performant.

The Problems
Speed Issues
The existing platform suffered from slow application load times and inefficient loan processing speeds, leading to operational delays.
Scalability Challenges
As the user base grew, the system struggled to handle increasing transaction volumes, resulting in performance bottlenecks.
Compliance with Financial Regulations:
- eKYC (Electronic Know Your Customer): Electronic customer verification is required to comply with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) regulations.
- CKYC (Central Know Your Customer): Needed to centralize KYC processes to improve data accuracy and avoid duplication.
- eNACH (Electronic National Automated Clearing House): Essential for automating recurring payment processing to ensure reliable payment collections.
- eSign: Required for enabling legally valid electronic signatures, reducing reliance on physical signatures.

Rapid Business Growth
The company needed to integrate with leading Indian banks as financial partners and co-lenders to streamline loan disbursements and onboarding processes.
Security and User Experience
The platform needed enhanced security measures, including IP whitelisting, authentication, authorization protocols, data validation, and encryption of sensitive information.
Financial Reports
Initial reports generated incorrect values due to calculation errors and incomplete data handling, affecting decision-making processes.

- Ongoing Maintenance & Support
Advanced machine learning models and integrated AWS Sagemaker helped us to train the AI system for real time, accurate species identification. Continuous model optimization ensured high precision across various environments.
We utilized AWS Cloud to build a highly scalable infrastructure capable of handling high traffic volumes. This ensured reliability, low latency, and seamless performance for millions of global users.
To support the subscription model, we integrated Adapty for in-app purchase management and paywall setup. This allowed us to offer premium features while maintaining a smooth user experience.
Using React Native, we developed the app for both iOS and Android, ensuring a consistent experience across devices. This also optimized performance by minimizing the need for separate codebases.
We integrated Google Places API for accurate geolocation and species mapping. To address privacy concerns, we implemented secure data handling protocols and encryption to protect user information while offering personalized experiences.
Throughout the development process, we adopted an Agile methodology using the Scrum framework for efficient project management. This iterative approach allowed us to adapt quickly to user feedback and evolving requirements, ensuring the timely delivery of a high-quality product.
To foster user interaction and community engagement, we integrated Facebook SDK. This allows users to share their findings and discoveries on social media, helping to build a global community of nature enthusiasts and increase app visibility.
