Raising public deposits is a popular way by which NBFC's look to raise capital to meet their own funding requirements. Given that public deposits from NBFC's are not secure, the Reserve Bank Of India (RBI) authorizes only select companies to raise money by way of Public Deposits.
What this means is that all NBFC Companies are not allowed to raise money from the Public.
Here is a list of companies that are allowed to raise money by way of Deposits.

Apart from the list mentioned above, there are many other NBFCs that are authorized to raise fixed deposits. The above list is only selective. The Reserve Bank of India keeps updating the list from time to time. We wish to emphasize once again that not all NBFC's are allowed to raise money and are list is not complete by any means.
Does registration with the RBI allow you to raise deposits?
No, a mere registration with the RBI does not allow a company to raise money by way of fixed deposits. In fact, we suggest that when investors wish to apply for fixed deposits, they do so only from the larger and well managed NBFC fixed deposits.
These should be AAA rated by the rating agencies in the country. From among the host of NBFCs you can pick companies like Mahindra Finance and Bajaj Finance. These are highly rated AAA deposits.
How to apply to the RBI for license to raise public deposits?
The application can be done by an online mechanism and thereafter one can send the physical formalong with the documents to the regional office of the RBI.
The application can be checked and viewed online.These days it not a very cumbersome process to get registration, though you need to comply with the Reserve Bank of India guidelines from time to time.
