07 August 2010 NBFCs are doing functions akin to that of banks; however there are a few differences:

(i) an NBFC cannot accept demand deposits; (ii) an NBFC is not a part of the payment and settlement system and as such an NBFC cannot issue cheques drawn on itself; and (iii) deposit insurance facility of Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation is not available for NBFC depositors unlike in case of banks.
