The Chief Business Officer of Ujjivan Small Finance Bank, Sanjay Kao at the launch ceremony said that "Cyclical nature of agriculture, where still a majority of the population's income or livelihood is dependent, makes accessibility of credit very important. In spite of this, farmers, especially small & marginal ones are deprived of the institutional credit. In turn, they are forced to go to local money lenders who charge very high interest rates. Ujjivan Small Finance Bank through its KPC offers Kisan credit card & term loans at very attractive interest rates to the farmers enabling them to meet the credit requirements for crop cultivation & allied activities."
Ujjivan Small Finance Bank understands the ins and outs of the Indian agri-business sector and through this innovative credit delivery system, it will cater to the credit requirements of farmers. Kisan Pragati Card is offered at a competitive turnaround time & the bank will dedicate frontline employees to facilitate doorstep delivery of KPC bringing simplified documentation & comfortable repayment with no hidden charges.
