## The Challenge

Real estate transactions involve India's largest personal financial commitments. Home loan KYC still relies on physical document submission and manual scrutiny that takes weeks. Housing finance companies are under RBI pressure to digitise borrower onboarding while maintaining robust fraud prevention.

## Use Case Scenarios

### Digital home loan KYC
**Situation:** A housing finance company wants to move from physical document submission to fully digital loan applications.

**Integration:** Lending KYC Pack: applicant submits Aadhaar OTP → PAN fetch → DigiLocker pulls ITR-V and Form 16 → bank penny-drop for EMI account → loan processing begins instantly.

**Outcome:** Application processing from 14 days to same-day. Document fraud dropped to near zero.

### Proptech broker onboarding
**Situation:** A proptech marketplace onboards 1,000 brokers per month and needs to verify them before enabling listing and commission settlement.

**Integration:** Merchant Onboarding Pack: mobile OTP → PAN verify → GST check → bank penny-drop. Brokers activated for listing and disbursals.

**Outcome:** Broker activation from 5 days to under 10 minutes. Commission payout failures from 6% to 0.2%.

### Tenant employment screening
**Situation:** A co-living platform screens thousands of tenant applications per month and needs employment verification alongside ID checks.
