Nice article.

Few clarification/questions though...

1. Slice is NOT using its own money. It is raising cash from "retail-investors" in the market by selling bonds at 11.5%. For example they raised 40Crores in Feb-2022 herehttps://www.wintwealth.com/app/assets/Wint-Feb22-11 Thus, it is the so called "investors" whose money is at risk, not Slice.

Note that on the above link, Wint mentions that there is 1.2x collateral. It will be interesting to find out what this collateral is.

2. Since you mention Slice generated a revenue of 35Cr, it will be interesting to find out how much credit did they provide to generate that much revenue. As they are raising the money through their NBFC bonds at 11.5%.

3. What is your reference/source to claim Slice made 24Cr revenue from Interchange payments (of the total 35Cr revenue)?

4. Finally, i am most interested to find out Slice's repayment schedule. though they say 3 months. Is it in 3 monthly-EMIs over 90days. Dhaniloans, one of Slice's peers in this unregulated BNPL credit game has resorted to predatory loans with convoluted repayment schedules designed to loot naive unsuspecting folks.

For those who are interested, here's the detailed analysis/math
