Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a Section 8 company can be used for microfinance activities and if the term 'microfinance' can be used. While some believe it's possible if proceeds support public causes, recent MCA and RBI guidelines state that Section 8 companies generally cannot conduct microfinance business or use the term. Exceptions may apply if it's a minor, ancillary part of the main objective.

As per my knowledge yes use for micro finance with a objective to promote a public cause and the proceeds generated by the entity is only used to support the state public causes
don't know about the word using

No, as per recent mca and rbi guidelines, a section 8 company can't use word microfinance and also can't do the same business. only such company can do is a small portion of his business which is ancillary nto main object. For details feel free to contact harisarda01 @ gmail.com
