Disclaimer

Important information about our services, limitations, and your responsibilities

Last Updated: April 2026

⚠️ Important Disclaimer

Please read this disclaimer carefully. Cashmela is a loan comparison and lead generation platform, NOT a lender. Loans are provided by RBI-regulated banks and NBFCs at their sole discretion and subject to their approval. Cashmela does not guarantee loan approval, interest rates, or any specific terms.

1. Nature of Cashmela's Services

Cashmela operates as an intermediary, loan comparison platform, and lead generation service. We are NOT a direct lender and do not:

  • Extend credit or provide loans directly
  • Determine loan eligibility or creditworthiness
  • Guarantee any specific interest rate or loan amount
  • Approve or reject loan applications
  • Disburse funds or manage loan accounts

What we do: We compare loan products, match qualified applicants with lenders, provide financial information and tools, and facilitate loan applications on your behalf with lending partners.

2. No Guarantee of Loan Approval

Cashmela cannot and does not guarantee:

  • Approval of your loan application by any lender
  • Best or competitive interest rates
  • Quick disbursement (timelines depend on lenders)
  • Specific loan amounts or terms
  • Processing within any guaranteed timeframe
  • Matching with any specific lender

Lender's Decision: Loan approval, interest rates, and terms are entirely at the discretion of the lending partner. Factors such as credit score, income verification, employment status, and debt-to-income ratio will be independently assessed by lenders.

3. Financial & Investment Information Disclaimer

All financial information, articles, guides, calculators, and tools available on Cashmela are provided for general educational and informational purposes only. They are NOT investment advice, financial advice, or legal advice.

Accuracy of Information: While we strive to maintain accurate information, we do not guarantee:

  • Accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of all content
  • That calculations are free from errors
  • That interest rates displayed are current or binding
  • That all lender offers are still available

Consult Professionals: For investment, tax, or legal decisions, please consult qualified financial advisors, chartered accountants, or lawyers.

4. Calculator Limitations

EMI calculators, eligibility assessments, and other financial tools on Cashmela are:

  • Provided for approximate calculations only
  • Not binding or definitive
  • Subject to variations based on different lender criteria
  • May not account for processing fees, insurance, or other charges
  • Should not be considered as actual loan terms

Actual Loan Terms: Final EMI, interest rate, and terms will be determined by the lender and may differ significantly from calculator results.

5. Data & Personal Information

By using Cashmela and submitting your information:

  • You authorize us to share your data with lending partners for loan processing
  • You understand that lenders will conduct credit checks and verify information
  • You acknowledge that multiple enquiries may impact your credit score
  • You consent to receiving communications from Cashmela and lenders

Credit Impact: Each lender enquiry may result in a hard enquiry to credit bureaus (CIBIL, Experian, etc.), which can temporarily lower your credit score. Cashmela is not responsible for credit score changes.

6. Third-Party Content & Links

Cashmela may contain links to third-party websites (lender websites, financial blogs, regulatory sites). We are not responsible for:

  • Content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites
  • Changes or unavailability of external links
  • Privacy practices of third-party websites
  • Technical issues on linked sites

Your Responsibility: Review third-party terms and policies before using their services.

7. Regulatory Compliance

All lending partners on Cashmela are RBI-regulated entities (banks and NBFCs). However:

  • Cashmela is not a regulated entity under RBI, SEBI, or other financial regulators
  • We do not fall under deposit insurance schemes
  • We do not have regulatory licensing like banks or NBFCs
  • Regulation applies to lending partners, not to our comparison/matching services

8. Platform Availability & Technical Issues

Cashmela is provided on an "AS IS" basis. We do not warrant:

  • Uninterrupted availability of the Platform
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, or technical issues
  • Data backup or recovery services
  • Compatibility with all devices or browsers

Maintenance & Downtime: Cashmela may undergo scheduled or emergency maintenance, during which services may be temporarily unavailable.

9. Risk Acknowledgment

By using Cashmela, you acknowledge and assume the following risks:

  • Risk of your personal information being shared with lenders
  • Risk of credit score impact from multiple enquiries
  • Risk of receiving unsolicited communications from lenders
  • Risk of loan terms being unfavorable compared to expectations
  • Risk of loan rejection despite using our platform
  • Risk of identity theft or unauthorized use of information

10. No Liability for Lender Actions

Cashmela is NOT responsible or liable for:

  • Lender policies, practices, or decisions
  • Unfair or deceptive practices by lenders
  • Delays in loan processing or fund disbursement
  • Hidden charges or undisclosed fees by lenders
  • Breach of privacy by lenders
  • Quality of customer service from lenders

Lender Disputes: Complaints against lenders should be directed to the respective lender's grievance redressal department or the RBI.

11. Limitation of Liability

CASHMELA SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Our total liability to you shall not exceed any amount paid by you to Cashmela (if any) in the preceding 12 months.

12. No Professional Advice

Nothing on Cashmela constitutes advice. We provide:

  • General informational content for educational purposes
  • Loan comparison tools without recommendations
  • Financial guides without personalized advice

You must independently evaluate whether a loan product is suitable for your financial situation. Consider consulting with financial professionals before borrowing.

13. Responsible Lending

Cashmela is committed to responsible lending practices. However:

  • We encourage borrowing only when necessary
  • Compare interest rates and review loan terms carefully
  • Ensure you can afford the EMI before borrowing
  • Avoid over-borrowing that could lead to financial distress

If you have concerns about predatory lending or unfair practices, report to the RBI or consumer forums.
