The details
- Per Annum (Transactree platform) is under scrutiny for making high-return pitches.
- Sales personnel promised up to 14-15% returns on P2P products and 30-40% gains on fractional real estate.
- These pitches violate RBI 2024 P2P rules that ban such return guarantees.
- Sales staff assured prospects that borrower spreads could soften losses, another violation.
- Per Annum sells 'Estates' (fractional real estate) and 'P2P Edge' (lending, up to 15% returns over 6 months).
