“Paison Se Badhkar” is not just a brand philosophy, it’s brand commitment

The film is particularly relevant in today’s environment where Home Loans are seeing a surge in demand, but remains a complex product with long-term financial implications on consumers.

Paisabazaar conducted a survey as a part of its pre-production research for the film to understand the struggles consumers go through in order to buy their home. The survey revealed the following consumer insights:

• 
  74% of home loan customers had to spend a large part of their life savings to pay the down-payment of their house

• 
  14% of borrowers also withdrew their PF savings

• 
  For 25% of respondents, it took more than 3 years, from planning to buying a house

• 
  9% had to wait for 10 years before they could afford to buy a house

“Choosing the right offer, especially in a long-term product like Home Loans, is critical due to the high costs involved. Paisabazaar.com has always strived to help consumers choose the most-suited loan, through technology, product and process innovations that aims to resolve deep-rooted consumer need gaps. Our brand ethos of ‘Paison Se Badhkar’ is about this commitment to our consumers to be always on their side, with the right product and advise,” said Naveen Kukreja, CEO & Co-founder, Paisabazaar.com. 

As a high ticket size loan, the process of home loan is more complex and time-consuming due to paper-heavy, offline and multi-step processes. Paisabazaar, through its end-to-end expert assistance model, which includes document pick-up, thorough coordination with lender etc. aims to make it easy, transparent and convenient for consumers. 65% of Paisabazaar customers said they were able to avail the home loan in less than 3 weeks, through Paisabazaar.

“Our brand philosophy of Paison Se Badhkar is at the centre of everything we do as business. Over the years, conversations with our customers clearly indicated that taking a loan is not just a monetary transaction for them. More often than not, it usually represents life goals, aspirations and at times, dire need. It is with this deep awareness that we strive to create a technology-led brand with a human face,” said Sai Narayan, CMO, Paisabazaar.com.

Paisabazaar.com’s last brand film based on ‘Paison Se Badhkar’ “The Wedding Speech” released last year and received tremendous response from all over the country and beyond, with over 100 million views on digital platforms.
