GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL POLICY

(Reviewed and Approved by the Board as on 24/04/2019)

The Dhani Loans and Services Limited (“DLSL”) as a service organization, imparting good  customer  service  and  enhancing  level  of  customer  satisfaction  is  our  prime concern. Providing prompt and efficient service is essential to attract new customers, as  well  as  to  retain  existing  ones.  We  believe  that  increase  in  market  share  and building  brand  value  is  possible  only  by  providing  quality  service  in  the  shortest possible time ensuing prompt redressal of customer complaints and grievances.

Our policy on grievance redressal follows the under noted principles:

  • Customers shall be treated fairly at all times.
  • Complaints raised by customers are dealt with courtesy and without undue delay.
  • Grievances  of  pensioners,  physically  challenged  and  senior  citizens  are  dealt with on priority basis.
  • Customers are fully informed of avenues to escalate their complaints/grievances within the organization and their rights to alternative remedy, if they are not fully satisfied with the response of the company to their complaints.
  • All complaints to be dealt efficiently and fairly as otherwise they can damage our reputation and business.
  •  Our employees would work in good faith and without prejudice to the interest of the customers.

In order to make Grievance Redressal Mechanism more meaningful and effective, a structured system has been built up towards such an end. This system would ensure

The   review   mechanism   for   grievance   redressal   should   help   in   identifying shortcomings in product features and service delivery.

This DLSL grievance redressal policy aims at ensuing prompt redressal of customer complaints and grievances. It also deals with the issues relating to services provided by the outsourced agency that the redressal sought is just and fair, and is within the given frame-work of rules and regulation.

However in relation to grievance redressal procedures, we have a dedicated email id displayed on our website to lodge any grievance by any customer if they want to do so – grievance@dhani.com.

1. A complaint is an expression of dissatisfaction made to an organization, related to its products, or services, or the complaints’ handling process itself, where a response or resolution is explicitly or implicitly expected.

The reason for customer complaint can be divided into two main categories:

  • The behavioural aspects in dealing with customers.
  • Inadequacy of the working/operations or gaps in standards of services expected and actual services rendered.

The  customer  has  a  right  to  register  his  complaint  if  he  is  not  satisfied  with  the services  provided.  There  are  four  ways  to  lodge  a  complaint  –  in  person,  by telephone,  by  mail/post  or  by  e-mail/internet.  Complaints  received  through  all  of these channels must be handled efficiently and swiftly. If customer’s complaint is not resolved within the prescribed time frame or if he is not satisfied with the resolution provided by us, he can also approach the office of Non-Banking Ombudsman set up by RBI with his complaint.

The  DLSL  recognizes  that  customer’s  expectation/requirement/  grievances  can  be better appreciated through personal interaction with customers by their staff. Many of the  complaints  arises  on  account  of  lack  of  awareness  among  customers  about services offered and such interactions helps customers to avail such services and it reduces the no of queries/complaints at later stage.

8.Sensitizing operating staff    for    improvement    in    service    &    handling complaints:

With an open mind and a smile on the face, staff should be able to win  the  customer’s  confidence.  Imparting  soft  skills  required  for  handling  irate customers,  should  be  an  integral  part  of  the  training  programs.  It  would  be  the responsibility of the Nodal Officer to ensure that the internal machinery for handling complaints/grievances operates smoothly and efficiently at all levels.
