OVERVIEW

Short-Term Funding That Keeps Your Business Running

Short term funding

A working capital loan covers your day-to-day costs, such as payroll, rent, inventory and utility bills. It is different from a long-term loan used to buy assets or expand. Its job is to keep your cash flow smooth so you can meet your immediate bills.

It is useful when your sales go up and down with the season, when customers pay late, or when your income dips for a short time. You can keep running without using up your savings or giving up growth plans.

These loans come in several forms, including lines of credit, invoice financing and short-term business loans. Structured EMIs help you plan. Rates are often higher than long-term loans, so borrow with care. We guide you from choosing a lender to planning your repayments.

CASE STUDY

A recent case from our work.

WORKING CAPITAL ENHANCEMENT

₹8 Cr

A Mumbai-based engineering components manufacturer with ₹60 Cr turnover and 12 years in business. Its existing ₹4 Cr cash credit limit no longer matches its order book.

 

Our approach: assess the working capital need from audited financials, the stock and debtor cycle, and the order pipeline. Then propose increasing the limit to ₹8 Cr, backed by stock and book debts, with the factory land and building as additional security.

Client

Engineering manufacturer, Mumbai

Turnover

₹60 Cr

Structure

Cash credit enhancement (₹4 Cr → ₹8 Cr)

Security

Factory land & building, valued ~₹12 Cr
