Can a Micro Finance Company be incorporated under Section 8 of The Companies Act 2013

Ankit Jain

The Answer is a BIG NOOO


I receive many enquiries asking whether a Micro Finance Company company be incorporated under section 8, I simply send them a General Circular by Ministry of Corporate Affairs on this and say NO it cannot be incorporated.


It is not feasible as they do not comply with stringent criteria of Net Owned Funds as laid down by RBI.
