Cancellation & refund policy – NBFC
This Cancellation & Refund Policy ("Policy") applies to loan products offered by Sonu Marketing Pvt. Ltd., a Non-Banking Financial Company ("NBFC"), and facilitated through the digital platform operated by Clickra Solutions Private Limited, acting as a Lending Service Provider ("LSP").
While the NBFC is the lender and solely responsible for credit sanction, disbursement, and repayment decisions, the LSP facilitates customer onboarding, digital processing, and communication in accordance with applicable RBI Digital Lending Guidelines.
This Policy governs transactions conducted through the LSP's digital platform and applies to all borrowers availing loan products from the NBFC through such platform.

- Improper, incomplete or fraudulent documentation is submitted
- Misrepresentation is discovered at any stage of the application or disbursement process.
1.2 Misuse of Loan Funds:
NBFC may cancel the loan sanction and recall the entire disbursed amount, along with applicable interest and penalties, if it is found that the loan funds are not utilized for the stated purpose as specified/ declared in the loan application.
1.3 Non-Completion of Formalities:
If a borrower fails to complete the prescribed formalities or submit required documents within the agreed-upon timeframe or fails to fulfil any conditions precedent to disbursement, NBFC reserves the right to cancel the sanction letter without any liability.
1.4 Change or Withdrawal of Sanction Before Disbursement:
Before disbursement, the NBFC may revise or withdraw a proposed sanction if any adverse credit, fraud, compliance, documentation or underwriting concern arises, or if the borrower’s information materially changes. The Borrower shall be informed in writing of any such revision or withdrawal before disbursement. Any revision shall apply only to the proposed sanction prior to disbursement and shall not affect any loan already disbursed. If the Borrower does not accept the revised sanction terms, the Borrower may decline the proposed loan without any charge or obligation.
Any final sanctioned loan terms, including loan amount, tenor, charges and repayment obligations, shall be communicated to the borrower through the applicable sanction letter, KFS and loan documents.
1.5 Extension / Renewal of Loan Tenure:
Where the relevant product permits extension / renewal of tenure, the same may be offered subject to the terms of the loan agreement, KFS, the Loan Extension Policy and the NBFC’s applicable policy.
Where an extension option is available, the Borrower may request an extension before the Due Date by paying the applicable Minimum Amount Payable (MAP), subject to the applicable terms and eligibility criteria. Before making such payment, the Borrower shall be provided with the applicable extension terms, including the revised repayment date, through the relevant customer interface.
The Loan Tenure shall be extended upon payment by the Borrower of the applicable amount, without the need for any further confirmation, and the updated loan terms and repayment details, including the updated KFS (where applicable), shall be made available to the Borrower on a durable medium.
Extension shall not operate as a waiver of default or of any rights available to the NBFC under the loan documents.
