The financing is typically secured by all of the project assets, including the revenue-producing contracts. Project lenders are given a lien on all of these assets and are able to assume control of a project if the project company has difficulties complying with the loan terms. Equipment financing is the use of a loan or lease to purchase or borrow hard assets for your business. This type of financing might be used to purchase or borrow any physical asset.

  • Sole Proprietorship or Professionals in service
  • Partnerships firms or Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs)
  • Private and Public Limited Companies
  • Trust and society
Loan Against Property

Loan against Property (LAP) or Mortgage Loan is a facility availed by keeping the residential or commercial property as collateral. The Value of mortgaged Property decides the amount of potential loan a borrower can be sanctioned. The lender or the financial institution keeps this property as collateral till the loan is fully repaid. Through Loan Against Property, MSME owners can unlock the financial potential of the property owned without the need to dispose it off. Interest rates are much lower for LAP due to the collateral given, and very often business owners overlook this opportunity due to apprehensions on documentation and delays in sanction.

Loan Against Securities

Loans Against Securities is available in the form of an overdraft facility which is pledged against financial securities like shares, units and bonds. Loan Against Shares/Bonds/Mutual Funds is basically a loan wherein you pledge the securities you have invested in as collateral against the loan availed. This product comes handy when you have significant market investments which are typically long term in nature. Instead of selling the securities, you can keep them as collateral to raise funds.

Housing Loans

A home loan, also referred to as a mortgage, is money borrowed to finance the purchase of a house. A loan that's used to purchase a home is commonly known as a mortgage. A home loan or housing loan is a form of secured loan availed to purchase a residential house/apartment or a plot of land for construction of a residential house. The property itself serves as collateral for the loan. It can also be taken or renovation, extension and repairs to your existing residential house. It has a fixed tenure and is repaid by Equated Monthly Instalments (EMI) over the sanctioned tenure. Home Loans are very popular among home-buyers due to the ease of transacting and the lower cost of borrowing.
