The banking regulator RBI has lifted the restrictions imposed on the gold loan business of IIFL Finance, the company said in a regulatory filing.

The RBI’s decision is effective immediately and allows the Company to resume the sanctioning, disbursal, assignment, securitization, and sale of gold loans in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations,” the BSE filing said.
The company is committed to upholding the highest standards of compliance and will continue to ensure that the remedial actions taken are sustained, it added.
