MSME loans is there next big launch. Doesn’t take a genius to figure out that it’s a pivot considering there is no connection between what they are doing & what they are launching.

No plan to launch as well. Do we have any anonymously betting app too? Can bet for next 3 quarters easily.

Okay let me try again! they are already in consumer lending for quite some time (available to selected users), and I read like, they are pivoting from consumer to MSME lending (my bad), which they are not. And spare change is just a facade to optimise CAC for other business.

You should further clarify that if they are lead generators for MSME loans or planning to write loans on their books (via NBFC license route)

Of course lead generation if anyone gets a NBFC license or acquires one there would be many Press Releases
