A New Era for Commercial Vehicle Financing in India

Poonawalla Fincorp Limited (PFL), a leading non-banking financial company backed by the Cyrus Poonawalla Group, has launched a new Commercial Vehicle Secured Loan service aimed at driving the growth of India’s transport sector.

The Importance of Commercial Vehicles for India’s Logistics Industry

In recent years, India’s logistics sector has seen tremendous growth, driven by the increasing demand for goods transportation across the country. With the rise of e-commerce platforms and ongoing infrastructure projects, the need for reliable commercial vehicles has never been higher. Poonawalla Fincorp’s Commercial Vehicle Loan service aims to address this need by providing loans for Small, Light, and Intermediate & Heavy Commercial Vehicles. These loans cover both new and used vehicles from reputable manufacturers like Tata Motors and Ashok Leyland.

Embracing Technology for Faster Loan Approvals

To further simplify the loan process, Poonawalla Fincorp has integrated advanced technology to speed up loan approvals.
