For a whole new generation of young salaried and tech-savvy professionals in the country, the idea of approaching traditional banks often seems unappealing.

Gaurav Chopra, Founder & CEO, IndiaLends said, \u201cThe emergence of \u2018leisure consciousness across India\u2019s younger
\ngeneration and the realization that a balanced lifestyle is important, has led to increase in domestic as well as international travel.\u201d<\/p>\n
A growing number of millennials are taking personal loans to satisfy their wanderlust. In many cases, the loan amount is a safety cushion that enhances the full experience of a destination. The new generation of young Indians are now planning holiday loan, just the way one plans investments. \u201cThere has been a shift in the younger generation in terms of financial planning. Not just those who don\u2019t have enough savings, but also those who want better travel experiences or wish to visit finer destinations are opting for loans. This also indicates the popularity of digital lending which is growing substantially in India. For a new generation customer, the ease of services is one of the important criteria for choosing the servicing company\u201d, he further added.<\/p>\n
