The operational model of this emergency borrowing app is simple.

CASHe?s target clients are young professionals between 20-35 years old.

The tech-based lending start-up will have an initial fund of about Rs 125 crore for loan disbursal. “We will start with a maximum loan of Rs 50,000 and it may go up to Rs 4 lakh over a period of time,” he said.
