Swabalamban Laghubitta also joins NPS to automate its payment process

Swabalamban Laghubitta has signed an agreement with Nepal Clearing House Ltd. (NCHL) for automating its various payment processes, including disbursements and collections through NCHL payment systems. The agreement was signed by Mr. Narendra Singh Bista, CEO of the microfinance and Mr. Neelesh Man Singh Pradhan, CEO of NCHL.

With this, Swabalamban has become one of the adopters to automate its payments by directly integrating its systems with National Payments Interface (NPI) of NCHL, enabling the company to access various digital instruments available under National Payment Switch. It will fully support automating various collection transactions such as saving deposits, EMI collections and various disbursement transactions such as salary payments, vendor payments, loan disbursements, tax payments, SSF, CIT, etc. Such transactions will be processed directly between the bank accounts of the laghubitta and its beneficiary/ customers at any BFIs. 

NPI is a consolidated interface for interconnection with multiple underlying payment systems of NCHL, which is now a part of National Payment Switch. It has over 55 BFIs within the network and is being used by more than 80 non-bank institutions including PSPs/PSOs, insurance companies, remittances, merchant banks, Government, Semi-Govt institutions, large corporates etc.
