Factors That Affect Interest Rates For A Business Loan in India

  • Nature of Business: The most important factor affecting your business loan is the nature of your business. Your business should be positive and the place of doing the business should not be blacklisted. Lenders examine the previous nature of your business to see whether it is profit-making or is incurring losses before deciding the interest rates.
  • Credit score: A credit score is a three-digit number that is in the range of 300 to 900. It shows your creditworthiness to your lender. Lenders use your credit score to evaluate your reliability. If you have a good credit score, then the interest rates for your business loan will be much lesser. A credit score of 750 and above is considered a good score by most lenders. If you have a low credit score, then your lender will consider you to be a risky borrower and will increase the interest rate for the loan or reject your loan application. Always check your credit score before applying for a business loan.
  • Business Vintage: Your business experience or age is important. If you have a long and established business, then lenders may charge a lower interest rate for business expansion. Lenders may charge higher interest rates for startup loans due to defaults and non-payments. Individuals who have been doing business for a long time have many business loan products to choose from.
  • Annual Turnover: The lender sets the business loan interest rate according to the annual turnover. If the annual turnover of the business is high, the rate of interest and the EMI will be lower. If your turnover is low or does not satisfy the lender, then a higher interest rate will be charged. This will lead to a higher EMI amount
  • Revenue and Profit: The lender always checks the monthly, quarterly, and annual revenue of your business before deciding the interest rate. If your revenue is not good, then the lender may approve your application. But, they will levy higher interest rates.
  • Credit history: If you have a long credit history marked by timely repayments of loans and credit card bills, then the interest rates that you will receive from your lender for your business loan will be low. If your credit history is bad, the interest rates will be higher as you will be seen as a risky customer.
  • Relationship with the lender: If you have a good and healthy relationship with the lender you are borrowing from and are an existing customer with them, then the interest rates can be negotiated for and one can get a lower interest rate.

What Are The Reasons For Taking Business Loans?

The following are the circumstances to apply for business loans

  • For starting out on a business: If you have a great idea for a startup that you want to turn into an endeavor for potential income, a business loan can be taken for the same purpose. You should make sure that your idea is good enough to generate enough profits and the overhead cost of the business is not so high.
  • While Expanding Your Business: The chances of getting a business loan approval are high when you take a business loan for expansion. This is because it will already have a proven track record. Business expansion can include the launch of a new product, starting a new department, upgrading an operation or a product, and exploring a new area or market, etc.
  • To Purchase Machinery and Equipment:it is essential for a business to maintain a regular supply to the market for a product that is high in demand. For this, the company has to invest in equipment and machinery with the latest technology. Furthermore, a company may also need to buy equipment during an expansion. Business loans are a great way to fund the purchase of machinery and equipment.
  • To Convert Business Losses Into Profits: A business loan can also be availed to convert a business that has been incurring losses into a profitable one. Lenders may hesitate to fund a business that has been running with losses. But, if you have a proper plan as to how you are going to improve the profits, you will succeed in finding a business loan.
  • To Settle Previous Debts: You can get a business loan to repay previous debts.
  • For Running A Seasonal Business: If you are operating a seasonal business, then orders may start rushing in that season. Then, it may be difficult for you to manage the expenses due to the high demand. In that case, you can secure a short-term business loan to offer continuous service to your customers. Then, you can repay the loan using the profits made after the season is over.
  • Working Capital For Business: When the cash flow within the organization is less due to a boom in the market or the increase in the operating cycles, It is tough to manage regular expenses such as supplies, raw materials, and salaries. In order to keep the business operational and recover from the financial crisis, an entrepreneur can take a business loan.

Dos and Don'ts Of Business Loans

Dos

  • Applicants should also have a viable business plan for the right allocation of funds.
  • Research the various types of business loans. Some business loans cater to specific segments of the society. This will help such people get loans at favorable interest rates and terms.
  • The applicant must cross-check all the mandatory documents required for this process.
  • Applicants must verify their credit score since some digital lenders consider it at the time of approving the business loan.
  • Compare between lenders before you apply for a business loan. Compare in terms of interest rates, flexi repay options, terms and conditions, prepayment penalties, and preclosure charges.
  • Borrow the right amount at the proper time
  • Calculating the actual business loan requirements in advance before applying is recommended
  • Understanding the lender’s repayment terms will help you repay the loan without hurting your credit score.
  • Verify the charges of the loan beforehand to understand the cost of the loan. Check the preclosure charges, prepayment charges, processing fee, documentation charges, part payment fee, and default fees.

Don'ts

  • Do not apply with multiple lenders
  • Do not fall for lenders offering low-interest rates
  • Don’t use the funds from the business during the incubation period in order to pay back too fast.
  • Applicants should be aware of fake lenders online. They charge an upfront fee for approving the business loan online. However, any credible digital lending platform will never ask for an upfront fee. However, it will levy a minimal percentage after loan disbursal.

Types of Business Loans

  • Overdraft Facility: The bank offers a withdrawal facility to its customer even if the account balance is zero. This is called overdraft facility. The interest rate is levied on the amount used from the approved limit. The bank sanctions a credit limit depending upon the account holder’s relationship with the bank, credit history, cash flows, and the repayment history if any. The overdraft limit is revised every year and can be used for any purpose if the interest is paid on time. The bank offers an overdraft facility against collateral/securities.
  • Working Capital Loan: A working capital loan is obtained to meet the company’s day-to-day expenses. It is obtained to meet the company’s expenditure during the off-season and meet the demand during the peak season. Most eligible applicants include service providers, manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, or traders engaged in exports or imports.
  • Term Loans: Term loans are generally taken for a specific purpose, especially for capital expenditure. The loan amount lent is based on the business’s credit history. The tenure is fixed and ranges between 1 and 5 years for unsecured loans and between 15 to 20 years for secured loans.
  • Demand Loans: Demand loans can be both secured and unsecured. They can be used to meet a short-term financial crisis. The maximum term for these types of loans is generally 12 months, but the entrepreneur can choose to renew it once the term ends. For such loans, the merchant has to repay the loan when the NBFC or the bank recalls it.
  • Business loans for Women Entrepreneurs: Many NBFCs have schemes in place to give business loans to women entrepreneurs. The government of India has also designed schemes to encourage women who want to enter into and do business. The benefits of business loans for women entrepreneurs include concessional interest rates, flexible loan tenures, flexible loan amounts, and a faster loan process.
  • Bank Guarantee: a bank guarantee business loan is a type of guarantee provided by the bank to the stakeholders of the business. In this, the bank will take care of the losses or pay the stakeholders if the borrower fails to repay the loan.
  • Letter of Credit: This is a type of business loan where the bank or financial institution offers a payment guarantee to enterprises that deal in international trade. Companies that deal in international trade have to deal with many unknown suppliers. So, they would want a payment assurance before they do any transaction. This is when a letter of credit giving the same is issued by the bank or financial institution.
  • Loan Against Securities: A business can opt for a loan against its approved securities such as mutual funds, bonds, stocks, insurance policies, savings, demat shares, exchange-traded funds, etc.

Two Types of Business Loan:

Secured Business Loans:

A secured business loan is when the individual provides collateral in the form of land, machinery, a house, etc, as security for the loan amount. This has the added benefit of a lower rate of interest.

Unsecured Business Loans:

An unsecured business loan is when the loan amount is given without any collateral. The interest rates for unsecured loans are generally higher as there is a risk factor involved for the lender.

Business Loan EMI

The business loan EMI or the equated monthly installment is the monthly repayment you make to the business loan issuer. Before you take a business loan, you should compute your business loan EMI. This helps you manage your finances better. A business loan EMI calculator is the best tool to compute your business loan EMI. All you have to do is enter the amount, tenure, and interest rate. The result gets displayed instantly.

You also have a formula to compute the business loan EMI. It is as follows:

EMI = {P * R * (1 + R) ^ N} / {(1+R) ^ (N - 1)}

Business Loan Interest Rates

Business loan interest rates vary across lenders. It also depends on various factors like business and personal credit score, nature of the business, revenue, annual turnover etc.

Business Loan Eligibility

Lenders set various eligibility criteria, such as age, nationality, occupation, credit score, etc. to qualify for business loans. The business loan eligibility criteria may vary slightly across lenders.

Business Loan Status Check

Businesses can track the status of their business loan application using online portals or netbanking and mobile apps. They can also contact customer care.

Business Loan Schemes

Business loan schemes launched by the Government of India provide funds to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and other business firms. There are many loan schemes that entrepreneurs can adopt based on their needs. Business entities can choose the right loan scheme which is most suitable to them.

Business Plan

A business plan is a written document that gives details about the business and how it is going to achieve its goals. A good business plan is required to get a business loan approval, preferential interest rates, and favorable terms for the loan.

Business Loan Rejection

For your business loan to be approved, there are multiple factors. Your loan application may be rejected in case these parameters are not fulfilled. Common reasons for business loan rejection could be poor credit score, absence of collateral, absence of proper business plan, etc. For more about business loan rejection and ways to overcome it..

M2P Fintech, an API Infrastructure provider for banks and NBFCs, will be launching a core lending suite (CLS). Through the consolidation of various solutions, M2P expects to provide a consolidated offering instead of having its clients partner with various loan management systems. M2P Fintech cofounder and chief executive Madhusudanan R said that banks and large financial institutions currently have four or five LMS since they either launched different products or the current LMS did not have the ability to support their new products. He further added that lending products are not offered in an integrated fashion and that is where M2P will be providing an integrated approach where lenders will not be required to find and integrate with new LMS and can save time. The core lending suite is to provide end-to-end management from customer onboarding, loan management, customer underwriting and also payment clearing. With the core lending suite any lending institution can level up owing to it being a single solution from onboarding to collections to ‘go to market’ strategies. This means that one could seamlessly build or remove products, solutions, or services on top of their existing systems, depending on the shift in consumer behaviour without affecting business continuity.
