90+ RBI circulars a year. Scale-Based Regulation layers. SARFAESI, DRT, NCLT, Ombudsman, CERT-In — all simultaneously. LEANM is the first agentic platform built specifically for how NBFCs, MFIs, and SFBs manage their regulatory and legal notice load.
India's NBFC sector faces a unique convergence of regulatory intensity, scale, and under-investment in compliance infrastructure.
Scale-Based Regulation created Base, Middle, Upper, and Top Layer obligations — each with distinct thresholds, governance norms, and reporting requirements. Most compliance teams are still operating on pre-2022 playbooks while the circulars keep coming: NBFC Ombudsman Scheme, Internal Ombudsman mandate, revised PCA triggers, and 2024 co-lending audit requirements.
A mid-tier NBFC is simultaneously managing notices from RBI (DNBR/DBR), MCA/ROC, DRT, NCLT, SEBI (if listed), Enforcement Directorate (PMLA), and state consumer forums. None of these systems talk to each other. The result: a Frankenstein of email threads, spreadsheets, and missed responses.
The deadlines are not forgiving. CERT-In mandates cyber incident reporting within 6 hours. The NBFC Ombudsman Scheme requires resolution within 30 days. DRT Securitisation Applications require response within 45 days. Missing any of these is not a compliance issue — it becomes a regulatory event.
Ujjivan, Jana SFB, Bandhan, AU — these institutions graduated from NBFC-MFI to full banking licensees but retained their original microfinance portfolio. They now face the complete RBI banking compliance framework PLUS the Sa-Dhan/MFIN code, household income caps, indebtedness limits, and MFI-specific Ombudsman routing — simultaneously.
Not a ticketing system. Not a document store. An autonomous agent that reads, classifies, routes, drafts, tracks, and learns — across every regulatory and legal notice your institution receives.
Captures from RBI portal, SEBI SCORES, MCA21, DRT e-filing, NCLT NCLAT, email, registered post, and WhatsApp. Every channel, one inbox.
Reads the notice, identifies the regulator, deadline, required action, risk level, and applicable regulation — in seconds. No manual triage.
Routes to the right compliance officer, legal counsel, or CRO based on notice type, urgency, and team structure. Escalates automatically if unacknowledged.
Drafts the response using regulatory context, prior correspondence history, and approved templates. GC or CCO reviews and approves. Nothing sent without sign-off.
Tracks every statutory and court-set deadline. Daily digest for leadership. Escalating alerts 7 days, 3 days, 1 day before. Zero missed deadlines.
Live feeds from 18 regulatory portals. See what's coming before it arrives. Compare your notice load vs peers. Benchmark resolution velocity.
Generic legal notice tools weren't built for India's regulatory complexity. LEANM is trained on the specific regulatory landscape your compliance team lives in.
LEANM maps every notice to the correct SBR layer — Base, Middle, Upper, or Top. Different thresholds, different governance obligations, different response authority levels.
For NBFCs eligible under SARFAESI (AUM >₹100Cr), LEANM tracks the full enforcement cascade: S.13(2) demand, S.13(4) possession, DRT proceedings, and HC writs — per account.
Sa-Dhan and MFIN codes embedded. Tracks household income cap adherence, ₹2L indebtedness limits, and customer protection norms that the RBI Ombudsman scrutinises.
Small Finance Banks need both banking-framework compliance AND their legacy microfinance obligations managed simultaneously. LEANM handles both in one dashboard with separate routing rules.
When a cyber incident hits, LEANM auto-triggers the CERT-In report template, pre-fills known technical facts, and routes to CISO + legal with a 6-hour countdown clock.
Manages the mandatory Internal Ombudsman routing for NBFC-MFIs with AUM >₹100Cr — complaint classification, 30-day resolution tracking, and escalation to the NBFC Ombudsman if needed.
LEA Notice Pulse is a live regulatory intelligence layer covering 18 portals — so you're never surprised by a circular, enforcement wave, or peer penalty.
RBI (DNBS, DNBR, DBR), SEBI, MCA/ROC, DRT, NCLT, IBBI, FIU-IND, IRDAI, CERT-In, Sa-Dhan, MFIN, and state consumer forums — all in one feed.
See your institution's notice volume by regulator, by quarter, by resolution status — with trend lines that surface patterns your compliance team can act on proactively.
How is your notice load and resolution velocity vs Ujjivan SFB, Jana SFB, AU SFB, and CreditAccess? The first tool that shows you where you stand in your peer group.
When you receive a new notice, see how similar institutions resolved the same notice type. Pulls from anonymised resolution patterns to suggest optimal response approaches.

Each scenario is a live demo walkthrough — mapped to real compliance situations your CRO, CCO, or CFO faces every week.
LEANM captures the RBI DNBS letter, classifies it as a PCA notice, extracts the compliance timeline, and drafts an acknowledgement response with regulatory context — before your compliance team has even opened their email.
Each complaint classified by category (mis-selling, recovery harassment, digital lending), routed to the right team, 30-day countdown started, resolution templates pre-loaded. Your team sees a structured queue instead of 12 panicked emails.
Notice Pulse pulls up the peer comparison view: your institution's notice volume vs Jana SFB, Ujjivan SFB, and AU SFB — broken down by regulator, quarter, and resolution velocity. Exportable for the board pack.
LEANM auto-triggers the CERT-In reporting workflow, pre-populates the incident details, routes to CISO + legal, and shows a live countdown. The report is drafted and reviewed within 2 hours, submitted within 4.
A 30-minute live demo — your institution type, your regulatory profile, your notice categories. We'll show you what LEANM does on Day 1.
