Central Bank of India & Capri Global Capital Renew Co-Lending Partnership to Boost Loans Nationwide

Mumbai, March 10, 2026: Central Bank of India has renewed its co-lending partnership with Capri Global Capital Ltd., promising easier access to loans for individuals and businesses across the country. The move comes under RBI’s updated Co-Lending Arrangement (CLA) guidelines, aiming to make credit more accessible and affordable.

Under this arrangement, Capri Global Capital, which operates 1,331 branches in 19 states and union territories, will originate loans like Gold Loans and LAP, while Central Bank of India will process them jointly. Borrowers will benefit from a blended interest rate, making the loans more competitive.

“This renewed partnership will expand our reach and help more people get access to credit,” said a senior official from Central Bank of India. Capri Global Capital will also manage the loans throughout their lifecycle, ensuring smooth service for borrowers.

With an AUM of Rs. 23,916 crore as of December 2025, Capri Global Capital brings the infrastructure and experience to handle a large number of accounts efficiently. Experts say such co-lending partnerships are crucial for financial inclusion, especially in underserved regions.

This initiative is expected to strengthen MSME financing, improve liquidity in the lending ecosystem, and help Central Bank of India and Capri Global Capital reach millions of potential borrowers across India.
