Advantages

Owing to their non-dealing with the funds of any person other than their members, the regulations imposed upon the Nidhi’s by RBI is limited.
The Ministry of Corporate Affairs has done away with the minimum capital requirement of INR 5 lakhs for Nidhis. It is only after Nidhi rules, 2014, that mandated the infusion of INR 10 lakhs for such companies.
Unlike Other NBFCS, Nidhi’s don’t have to obtain a license from RBI. They just have to incorporate themselves as a public company with the MCA, infuse the required amount of capital as per Nidhi Rules, 2014 and they are all set to go.
The main aim of such companies is to promote the habit of saving and thrifts among lower and middle section of the society. These small sections of the population contribute to the funds of and avail credit from Nidhi companies.
The loans given to the members are at a lower rate of interest than the market rate this brings greater savings to the members.
The Nidhi companies are formed by, managed by, and provide benefits to their members only the outsider is not allowed to intervene into the working of The Nidhis, neither allowed to deposit money or avail credit from these companies.

Disadvantages

Since the Nidhi Companies accept deposits from their members only, the funds raised are limited in accordance with the number of members.
When the funds raised are limited, the availability of credit is also restricted. This defeats the whole purpose for which the Nidhi Companies are established.
Although there are no strict compliances imposed upon the Nidhis by RBI, still their activities are governed by the Reserve Bank especially their deposit acceptance operations.
The central government issues rules and directions governing Nidhi Companies from time to time. Therefore, they are not totally exempt from the regulatory framework.
