What is the difference between MCLR and EBLR pricing in Alwarpet, Chennai?
Marginal Cost of Funds Lending Rate (MCLR) introduced 1 April 2016 is internally computed by each bank based on marginal cost of funds, negative carry on CRR, operating cost and tenor premium. External Benchmark Lending Rate (EBLR) mandated by RBI Circular dated 04-09-2019 — effective 01-10-2019 — requires all floating-rate retail and Micro & Small Enterprise (MSE) loans to be linked to an external benchmark (RBI Repo Rate, 3-month T-Bill, 6-month T-Bill or any other FBIL benchmark). The bank cannot offer a non-EBLR floating rate to retail or MSE post-October 2019. EBLR transmits monetary policy faster than MCLR.
Applicable Laws & Rules
RBI Master DirectionRBI Master Direction on Priority Sector Lending — Targets and Classification (FIDD.CO.Plan.BC.5/04.09.01/2020-21) dated 04-09-2020 — mandates 40% of ANBC to PSL overall, 18% to agriculture (10% small/marginal farmers, 4.5% non-corporate farmers), 7.5% to Micro Enterprises and 10% to weaker sections; defines MSE, women borrower, SC/ST and education / housing eligibility for PSL classification.

Spread reset only on credit deterioration.
RBI CircularRBI Circular DBR.Dir.BC.No.107/13.03.00/2013-14 dated 05-05-2014 — Foreclosure Charges / Pre-payment Penalty on Floating Rate Term Loans — prohibits banks from levying any prepayment / foreclosure penalty on floating-rate term loans extended to individual borrowers; subsequently extended to Micro & Small Enterprises. Applies irrespective of source of prepayment funds.
Relevant Court Rulings
Supreme Court (2004)
Mardia Chemicals Ltd v Union of India (2004) 4 SCC 311 — the Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of the SARFAESI Act 2002 read down Section 17(2) (75% pre-deposit for DRT appeal struck down as arbitrary), and crystallised borrower's right of representation under Section 13(3A) — the secured creditor must give a reasoned reply within one week before proceeding to enforcement under Section 13(4).
Supreme Court / RBI
ICICI Bank v Prakash Kaur (2007) 2 SCC 711 and the RBI Charter of Customer Rights / Master Direction on Fair Practices Code — recovery agents cannot use force, intimidation or harassment; banks must follow due process. Coupled with the RBI-Integrated Ombudsman Scheme 2021 (RBIOS), borrowers have an independent low-cost forum for grievances on charges, foreclosure penalty, deficiency of service and fair practice violations.

RBI MSME Resolution Framework (Circular 01-01-2019) and Resolution Framework 2.0 (05-05-2021) — restructuring up to ₹25 crore aggregate exposure with extended tenure / moratorium / additional working capital, with the account remaining 'standard' on books.
2
Balance Transfer with Breakeven Analysis

RBI Co-Lending Model 2024 Access
80:20 bank-NBFC co-lending for priority sector advances — 80% bank-rate funding combined with 20% NBFC last-mile reach. Joint sanction issued; borrower benefits from blended pricing closer to bank rates.
4
Lower ROI via Multi-Bank Bidding
25-75 basis points spread reduction routinely captured through structured competitive bidding across 5-8 lenders — peer-benchmarked premium negotiated downward against the bank's discretionary loading.
5
Processing Fee Waiver / Reduction
Processing fee of 0.25%-1% plus GST waived 50-100% for ₹2 crore+ tickets with CMR 1-4. CERSAI, valuation, legal opinion and documentation charges separately reduced to bring transparent Total Cost of Credit.

Days
Form
Consequence
Creation of charge on company assets to secure a bank loan
30 days
Form CHG-1 (with instrument of charge)
Charge registrable within 30 days; extendable up to 120 days with additional and ad valorem fees. Beyond that the charge is void against the liquidator and other creditors, and the bank may withhold disbursement.
Monthly stock and book-debt statement submission for cash-credit/OD
10 days
Stock statement + debtor ageing statement
Drawing power is recomputed from the latest statement. Non-submission caps DP at the last statement, attracts penal interest on any excess drawing, and repeated default triggers SMA classification.
Annual renewal of working-capital (CC/OD) limit
365 days
Renewal CMA data + audited financials + next-year projections
Limit lapses if not renewed within 12 months of last sanction. Account treated as ad-hoc/overdrawn, interest may step up by 100-200 bps, and renewal is deferred until full papers are in.
Overdue instalment/interest before slipping to NPA
90 days
Reconciliation note + corrective action / regularisation plan
An account overdue beyond 90 days is classified NPA under RBI IRAC norms. Pre-NPA it moves through SMA-0 (up to 30 days), SMA-1 (31-60) and SMA-2 (61-90); curing within these windows protects the credit rating.
Buyer's payment default to a registered MSE supplier
45 days
MSME Samadhaan reference (with invoice/agreement)
Payment due within the agreed period capped at 45 days. Beyond it, compound interest at three times the RBI bank rate accrues in the supplier's favour and a Samadhaan claim can be filed against the buyer.
Submission of audited financials to the bank after FY-end
Expected within about 6 months of 31 March (by 30 September). Delay can suspend the limit, attract penal interest of around 2 percent over the agreed rate, and stall renewal.
Satisfaction/closure of a registered charge after loan repayment
30 days
Form CHG-4
Satisfaction of charge must be intimated to ROC within 30 days of full repayment. Delay leaves the charge open on the MCA index, complicating future borrowing and the company's search report.
Deadline pressure points we see in Alwarpet: Where Alwarpet differs: for Alwarpet's premium business segment that values fixed-fee compliance with senior-practitioner involvement.

Operative provisions cited on this page
Every claim on this page can be traced back to a section or rule below.
RBI Master Direction on Loans and AdvancesAnchor
RBI Master Direction on Loans and Advances - Statutory Rules
The Reserve Bank of India's Master Direction on Loans and Advances is the umbrella framework governing how banks appraise, sanction, disburse and monitor credit. For a business borrower it dictates the working-capital assessment methods banks may use (turnover method for limits up to Rs 5 crore, and the Maximum Permissible Bank Finance / CMA method above that), the margin and drawing-power rules on cash-credit accounts, and the periodicity of renewal. In loan advisory we align the client's project report and CMA projections to these appraisal expectations so the credit committee has no reason to trim or reject the limit. Understanding this Direction is what lets an advisor predict the eligible quantum before the file is even lodged.
Under RBI's Priority Sector Lending framework, scheduled commercial banks must channel 40 percent of Adjusted Net Bank Credit into priority sectors, with a defined sub-target for micro enterprises. Loans to MSMEs, agriculture-allied units and certain export and education borrowers qualify as PSL. For an eligible business this matters because banks actively seek PSL-compliant proposals to meet regulatory targets, which improves both the pricing and the speed of sanction. A core part of loan advisory is establishing and documenting PSL eligibility - correct Udyam classification, activity codes and end-use - so the borrower is positioned as a target-fulfilling asset rather than an ordinary commercial exposure. This framing frequently unlocks lower interest rates and collateral relaxations.
The Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act 2006 defines the investment-and-turnover thresholds that classify an enterprise as micro, small or medium, operationalised today through Udyam Registration. Correct classification is the gateway to almost every concessional lending benefit: CGTMSE collateral-free cover, priority-sector pricing, PMEGP and Mudra eligibility, and government subsidy schemes. In loan advisory we verify that the client's Udyam certificate reflects the right category, that investment in plant and machinery and turnover are computed on the prescribed basis, and that the classification is consistent with the financials submitted to the bank. A mismatch between Udyam status and the balance sheet is a common reason concessional benefits are denied at sanction stage.
The Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises provides a guarantee cover to member lending institutions against default on collateral-free credit extended to eligible micro and small enterprises. Cover extends to substantial limits with a graded guarantee percentage, letting a viable but asset-light business raise term and working-capital finance without pledging land or property. In loan advisory the objective is to structure the proposal so the bank routes it under CGTMSE - confirming the activity is eligible, keeping the exposure within scheme ceilings, and ensuring the borrower is prepared for the annual guarantee-fee outflow. Many first-generation Chennai entrepreneurs are bankable only because of this scheme, so getting the documentation scheme-compliant is central to the advice.
Companies Act 2013 - Section 77 (Registration of Charge)Anchor
Companies Act 2013 Section 77 - Registration of Charge
Section 77 obliges a company that creates a charge on its assets - which is what happens when it hypothecates stock or mortgages property to secure a bank loan - to register that charge with the Registrar of Companies within 30 days of creation, in Form CHG-1. Registration within the extended windows is possible on payment of additional and ad valorem fees, but an unregistered charge is void against a liquidator and other creditors, which can jeopardise the bank's security and, in practice, its willingness to disburse. For corporate borrowers, loan advisory includes coordinating timely CHG-1 filing with the lender, because banks routinely make disbursement or continued limit availability conditional on charge registration.
Income-tax Act Section 43B - Interest Allowed on Actual Payment
Section 43B provides that certain expenses, including interest on any loan or borrowing from a scheduled bank, NBFC or financial institution, are deductible only in the year the interest is actually paid, not merely accrued. Critically, unpaid interest that is converted into a fresh loan or funded interest term loan is not treated as paid and stays disallowed until genuinely discharged. For a stressed borrower who reschedules or has interest funded, this is a real tax trap. In loan advisory we track interest actually paid versus accrued and flag any funding or conversion arrangement, so the client neither overclaims a disallowed deduction nor misses a legitimate one in the year of payment.

Alwarpet reads as a upscale residential with healthcare and dining pocket with high commercial activity, anchored around TTK Road and fed by the TTK Road Bus Stand corridor.

Serving Alwarpet and Royapettah from one team keeps Loan Advisory turnaround identical across the cluster. A client relocating between Alwarpet and Royapettah keeps the same Loan Advisory file and the same team.

People Also Ask — Loan Advisory in Alwarpet
Who is eligible for loan advisory engagement in Alwarpet?
Any individual borrower, proprietor, partnership firm, LLP, company, HUF or trust in Alwarpet approaching scheduled commercial banks, Small Finance Banks, NBFCs or co-operative banks for retail, MSE, SME or corporate credit. Specifically — first-time borrowers seeking Mudra / Stand-Up India / PMEGP scheme mapping; existing borrowers seeking ROI re-pricing or balance transfer; stressed borrowers seeking restructuring under the RBI MSME Resolution Framework; large borrowers structuring multi-bank consortium for ₹150 crore+ working capital.
How do you negotiate ROI without a banking relationship?
Independent advisory leverages competitive bidding — we float a structured RFP across 5-8 lenders simultaneously with identical financials and tenor, collect indicative term sheets, benchmark the offered ROI against peer borrowers in the same NIC code, CIBIL band and exposure range, then run a counter-offer round citing the lowest bid. RBI Fair Practices Code requires written sanction with all charges disclosed — there is no scope for discretionary loading once benchmarks are established. Spread reduction of 25-75 basis points is routinely achievable for Alwarpet clients with CMR 1-4.
Can you really get the processing fee waived?
Processing fees of 0.25%-1% plus GST are commercial — they are revenue for the bank but uniformly negotiable. Waivers / reductions of 50-100% are achievable where (a) loan size is ₹2 crore or above, (b) borrower has a CMR of 1-4 / CIBIL 750+, (c) competitive bids exist on file, (d) ancillary banking (current account, salary account, term deposits) is committed. Where direct waiver is refused, we negotiate offsetting reductions on CERSAI, valuation, legal opinion and documentation charges to bring net cost down.
Is foreclosure penalty really NIL or do banks charge it anyway?
For floating-rate term loans extended to individual borrowers and Micro & Small Enterprises, the RBI Circular dated 05-05-2014 (and reaffirmed in Master Directions) prohibits any prepayment / foreclosure penalty — irrespective of source of prepayment funds. Banks that levy a penalty in violation are challengeable before the RBI-Integrated Ombudsman (RBIOS 2021) — refunds with interest are routinely ordered. For fixed-rate loans, penalty (1-2%) is permissible only if expressly disclosed in sanction. We pre-validate sanction letter clauses to flag and strike non-compliant penalty terms.
What is the difference between Mudra Tarun and Tarun Plus?
Tarun under the original PMMY framework (April 2015) covers loans from ₹5,00,001 to ₹10,00,000. Tarun Plus introduced in Union Budget 2024-25 covers loans from ₹10,00,001 to ₹20,00,000 — but only for borrowers who have previously availed and successfully repaid a Tarun-category loan. Both are collateral-free, backed by CGFMU credit guarantee and extended to non-corporate, non-farm micro / small enterprises. Tarun Plus is intended for graduating micro-borrowers expanding capacity.
How long does a CGTMSE-backed loan take from application to disbursement?
Indicative timeline — 30 to 60 days from complete documentation. Steps — (a) borrower's application and CIBIL pull (Day 1-3); (b) appraisal and credit committee (Day 7-21); (c) sanction letter (Day 21-30); (d) CGTMSE coverage application by Member Lending Institution (Day 30-45); (e) Documentation Execution and disbursement (Day 45-60). Annual Guarantee Fee of 0.5%-2% is borne by borrower; coverage is 75% (general), 85% (women / SC/ST / NER / Aspirational District) — collateral-free up to ₹5 crore (enhanced 09-03-2023).
What documents do banks ask for an MSE / SME term loan?
Standard documentation — (a) PAN and Aadhaar of promoters; (b) constitution documents (proprietorship declaration / partnership deed / MOA-AOA / LLP agreement); (c) GST Registration and last 6-quarter GSTR-3B; (d) last 3 years' audited financial statements (B/S, P&L, schedules); (e) last 3 years' Income-tax Returns with computation; (f) last 12 months' bank statements for all...
What CIBIL score do I need for loan approval?
Indicative thresholds — Public Sector Banks generally require CIBIL score of 700+ for retail and MSE loans; Private Sector Banks usually 750+ for unsecured and 720+ for secured; NBFCs lend from 650+ but at risk-priced ROI. CIBIL Commercial Rank (CMR) for entities is on a 1-10 scale — CMR 1-4 is the bankable zone. Below...
How do I improve my CIBIL score before applying?
Practical levers — (a) settle and obtain NDC (No Dues Certificate) on all closed loans; (b) reduce credit card utilisation to under 30% of limit; (c) avoid hard enquiries — every fresh application drops 5-15 points; (d) clear DPDs (Days Past Due) — even 1-30 day delays hurt; (e) maintain a healthy mix of secured...
What is loan advisory and how does it differ from a DSA / loan agent?
Loan advisory is independent professional structuring of credit — comparing schemes, banks and NBFCs, negotiating Rate of Interest (ROI), processing fee and prepayment terms, and aligning the facility with the borrower's cash flow and asset base. A DSA / loan agent, by contrast, is paid commission by the bank and represents the lender's product. FilingPro...
What is the priority sector lending framework and how does it benefit my loan?
The RBI Master Direction on Priority Sector Lending dated 04-09-2020 mandates that scheduled commercial banks lend 40% of Adjusted Net Bank Credit (ANBC) to priority sectors — 18% agriculture (with 10% to small/marginal farmers and 4.5% to non-corporate farmers), 7.5% to Micro Enterprises and 10% to weaker sections. MSMEs, women borrowers, SC/ST entrepreneurs, education and...

What is Loan Advisory and when is it required
Service overview
Loan Advisory in Chennai () is delivered at FilingPro on a fee-only borrower-side engagement under the RBI Master Direction on Priority Sector Lending dated 04-09-2020 and the Fair Practices Code. We compare schemes (Mudra / Stand-Up India / CGTMSE / PMEGP / PM Vishwakarma), shop across 5+ scheduled commercial banks and NBFCs, benchmark the offered ROI against peer borrowers and negotiate the risk premium downward. No bank commission — we work for you alone.
Why loan advisory matters for your business
NIL Foreclosure Penalty Enforced
RBI Circular of 05-05-2014 enforced — zero prepayment / foreclosure penalty on floating retail and MSE term loans irrespective of source of funds. Non-compliant clauses struck before sanction.
Lower ROI via Multi-Bank Bidding
25-75 basis points spread reduction routinely captured through structured competitive bidding across 5-8 lenders — peer-benchmarked premium negotiated downward against the bank's discretionary loading.
Processing Fee Waiver / Reduction
Processing fee of 0.25%-1% plus GST waived 50-100% for ₹2 crore+ tickets with CMR 1-4. CERSAI, valuation, legal opinion and documentation charges separately reduced to bring transparent Total Cost of Credit.
How the engagement runs end to end
Multi-Bank RFP and Term Sheet Comparison
Structured RFP floated across 5-8 lenders with identical financials and tenor. Indicative term sheets collected, ROI / processing fee / ancillary charges / TCC benchmarked, lowest bid surfaced, counter-offer round run.
Sanction Letter Negotiation
Sanction letter reviewed clause-by-clause — EBLR linkage, spread, processing fee, ancillary charges, foreclosure terms, default clauses. Counter-offers issued for non-compliant or unfavourable terms. Final sanction at peer-benchmarked pricing.
Eligibility and CIBIL Diagnostic
Initial consultation with the Chennai client — business profile, fund requirement, tenor, collateral position. CIBIL Commercial Rank and Consumer Score pulled. Eligibility mapped against Mudra / Stand-Up India / CGTMSE / PMEGP / PM Vishwakarma / open-market schemes.

By Industry
Industry-specific patterns in Alwarpet
How the local trade mix shapes this — In Alwarpet, the cluster of healthcare, hospitality, jewellery businesses that defines Alwarpet's commercial fabric.
Textiles
Common issue:Textile trading and processing units in {{area_name}} carry long working-capital cycles, with funds locked in inventory and in receivables from large buyers who pay slowly. Extended debtor days push the ageing well beyond norm, and banks price that risk into a reduced drawing power, prompting owners to seek larger limits merely to bridge collections that are already overdue. Seasonal demand swings and margin pressure make it hard to service any over-borrowing, and stock-statement discipline is often weak.
How we handle it:We use the unit's registered MSE status and the MSMED Act delayed-payment protection as both a collection lever and a credit-file argument, initiating structured 45-day follow-up and, where needed, MSME Samadhaan recourse against slow buyers. Debtor ageing in the CMA is annotated to show the protected, recoverable nature of overdue amounts, and seasonal fund needs are mapped month-wise. Improved collections and mitigated ageing risk keep drawing power steady and reduce the enhancement actually required.
Construction Contractors
Common issue:Construction and civil contractors in {{area_name}} face lumpy, milestone-based cash flows and heavy retention money and security deposits locked with clients, which distort the working-capital picture banks assess. Corporate contractors frequently create charges on assets to secure limits but miss the 30-day CHG-1 registration window, risking an unenforceable security and a bank refusal to disburse. Non-fund limits such as bank guarantees and LCs are often needed alongside cash credit, and weak documentation of work orders and receivables depresses the assessed limit.
How we handle it:We build CMA and projections that reflect retention, mobilisation advances and milestone billing so the genuine working-capital gap is captured, and structure the right mix of fund-based and non-fund-based (BG/LC) limits. For corporate borrowers we ensure timely Form CHG-1 registration with the ROC and align the board resolution and instrument of charge with the sanction, so the security is enforceable and disbursement is not withheld. Work-order-backed receivables are documented to support the assessed limit.
MSME Manufacturing
Common issue:Small manufacturing units in and around {{area_name}} are typically asset-light on immovable property, so banks default to demanding collateral the promoter cannot give. Term-loan needs for plant and machinery are real, but self-prepared project reports often carry over-optimistic capacity-utilisation and sales assumptions that do not reconcile with GST turnover or past bank credits, so the credit officer discounts the projections and either trims the quantum or asks for security. Under-classification or an outdated Udyam certificate further blocks the concessional benefits the unit is actually entitled to.
How we handle it:We confirm and correct Udyam classification, then structure the proposal under CGTMSE so the machinery term loan can be collateral-free within the scheme ceiling, with the guarantee fee built into cash flow. Project report and CMA projections are reconciled to GST and bank statements so capacity and sales are defensible, and priority-sector eligibility is documented to secure better pricing. The result is a credible, scheme-aligned file that clears appraisal without pledging family property.
Traders
Common issue:Wholesale and retail traders in {{area_name}} live on working-capital cycles, yet their cash-credit limits are frequently under-sanctioned because the turnover method is applied mechanically and current-asset build-up is poorly presented. Overstated debtor days, slow-moving stock lumped with good inventory, and irregular monthly stock statements all depress drawing power. When the sanctioned limit falls short of the genuine trade cycle, traders bridge the gap with costlier informal or NBFC funds, eroding margins, and repeated non-submission of statements risks penal interest and SMA flags.
How we handle it:We compute the working-capital gap on a realistic holding period, separate slow-moving inventory, and present both turnover-method and MPBF-method eligibility so the bank sees the defensible limit. Peak and lean-season fund needs are shown month-wise to justify the quantum, and a disciplined monthly stock-and-debtor statement routine is set up to keep drawing power aligned with the sanction. This restores adequate, correctly-priced limits and removes penal-interest leakage.
IT / Services Startup
Common issue:IT and services start-ups in {{area_name}} are cash-flow rather than asset businesses, so conventional collateral-based appraisal understates their bankability. They often mix personal, business and inter-company funds, drawing term loans that partly fund non-business advances, which both breaches bank end-use covenants and puts the interest deduction at risk under Sections 36(1)(iii) and 43B. Thin balance sheets and revenue concentration in a few clients make credit officers cautious, and founders rarely document the end-use trail the bank and the assessing officer both expect.
How we handle it:We map each disbursement to its actual business application, keep a clean tranche-wise end-use trail to satisfy covenants, and demarcate deductible interest from any disallowable portion for the tax return. Where suitable we position the unit under CGTMSE and priority-sector norms, and build projections around contracted and pipeline revenue rather than optimistic hockey-sticks. This produces a fundable proposal and protects the interest deduction at assessment.
Case Studies
Anonymised engagements we have handled
Real client situations (names changed); illustrative of the kind of work we do.
Working-capital enhancementTraders
Rebuilt CMA data recovered a working-capital limit the bank had trimmed
Issue:A wholesale trading firm applied for a Rs 1.5 crore cash-credit limit but the bank offered only about Rs 90 lakh. The turnover-method computation had been applied mechanically, the debtor cycle was overstated, and slow-moving inventory inflated the current-asset picture, so the maximum permissible bank finance came out far below what the genuine trade cycle required.
Approach:We recomputed the working-capital gap using a realistic holding period for stock and receivables, separated slow-moving inventory, and presented both the turnover method and the MPBF method so the bank could see the eligible limit under each. Peak-season and off-season fund needs were shown month-wise to justify the higher sanction, with a clean margin on current assets.
Outcome:The bank restored the limit close to the original request after seeing the defensible current-asset build-up. The firm gained enough headroom to negotiate better supplier terms, and the documented monthly stock-statement discipline we set up kept drawing power aligned with the sanction thereafter.
Term loan structuring & taxIT / Services Startup
Correct end-use documentation protected a start-up's interest deduction
Issue:An IT services start-up drew a term loan partly to fit out office premises and partly, informally, to give an interest-free advance to a sister concern. At the next assessment, interest attributable to the diverted funds was at risk of disallowance, and the bank had also flagged a possible end-use covenant breach that could have frozen the limit.
Approach:We traced each disbursement tranche to its actual application and separated the genuinely business-linked spend from the diverted advance. The interest-free advance was regularised, the business end-use was documented tranche by tranche to satisfy the bank covenant, and the interest eligible under Section 36(1)(iii) was clearly demarcated from the disallowable portion for the tax return.
Outcome:The bank's end-use concern was closed without any freeze on the facility, and at assessment the deduction for the genuinely business-linked interest was accepted while only the small diverted portion was offered as disallowed. The client avoided a larger addition and penalty exposure that an unexplained diversion would have invited.
Receivables & working capitalTextiles
MSME delayed-payment leverage cut the working-capital ask
Issue:A textile processing unit was carrying heavy overdue receivables from two large corporate buyers, which had pushed its debtor days well beyond the industry norm. The bank was pricing this ageing risk into a reduced drawing power, and the promoter was seeking a larger cash-credit limit simply to bridge collections that should already have come in.
Approach:We confirmed the unit's registered MSE status and used the MSMED Act delayed-payment protection as both a collection tool and a credit-file argument. A structured follow-up citing the 45-day rule and MSME Samadhaan recourse was initiated with the buyers, and the debtor-ageing note in the CMA was annotated to show the protected, recoverable nature of the overdue amounts.
Outcome:Two of the largest overdue invoices were settled once the statutory interest exposure was pointed out to the buyers, shrinking the working-capital gap. The bank, seeing collections improve and the ageing risk mitigated, held the drawing power steady rather than cutting it, so the unit needed a smaller enhancement than first feared.
Late CHG-1 regularised before it derailed a disbursement
Issue:A private limited contracting company had been sanctioned a term loan and cash-credit limit, but the charge in favour of the bank had not been registered with the ROC within 30 days of creation. The bank made further disbursement conditional on charge registration, and the delay had already crossed the ordinary window, risking additional fees and an unenforceable security.
Approach:We prepared and filed Form CHG-1 within the extended condonation window, paying the additional and ad valorem fees, and reconciled the instrument of charge with the sanction letter so the registered particulars matched the bank's security. The board resolution authorising the borrowing and charge was put in order at the same time to close any governance gap.
Outcome:The charge was registered and reflected on the MCA index, satisfying the bank's condition so the balance disbursement was released on schedule. With the security now enforceable and properly recorded, the company avoided both the void-charge risk and the prospect of the bank withholding the limit at a critical project stage.

“FilingPro shopped our ₹3 crore working capital across five banks — three PSU and two private. The final sanction came in 80 basis points below our incumbent bank's offer with full processing fee waiver and CERSAI charges absorbed by the bank. Independent advisory clearly works — no DSA can negotiate this hard.”

“During COVID stress, FilingPro applied the RBI Resolution Framework 2.0 of 05-May-2021 to restructure our ₹1.4 crore term loan without NPA downgrade — 18-month moratorium and tenure elongation negotiated. CIBIL preserved. Without their intervention we would have slipped to SMA-2 and lost bank credit.”

Marginal Cost of Funds Lending Rate (MCLR) introduced 1 April 2016 is internally computed by each bank based on marginal cost of funds, negative carry on CRR, operating cost and tenor premium. External Benchmark Lending Rate (EBLR) mandated by RBI Circular dated 04-09-2019 — effective 01-10-2019 — requires all floating-rate retail and Micro & Small Enterprise (MSE) loans to be linked to an external benchmark (RBI Repo Rate, 3-month T-Bill, 6-month T-Bill or any other FBIL benchmark). The bank cannot offer a non-EBLR floating rate to retail or MSE post-October 2019. EBLR transmits monetary policy faster than MCLR.
PM Street Vendor's AtmaNirbhar Nidhi (PMSVANidhi) launched 1 June 2020 is a micro-credit facility for street vendors in urban areas. First tranche — ₹10,000 working capital loan, repayable in 12 months. On timely repayment, second tranche of ₹20,000 and third tranche of ₹50,000. Interest subvention of 7% per annum, cashback up to ₹1,200 per year on digital transactions. Vendor Certificate / Letter of Recommendation from Urban Local Body required.

Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY) launched in April 2015 has four tiers — Shishu up to ₹50,000; Kishore from ₹50,001 to ₹5,00,000; Tarun from ₹5,00,001 to ₹10,00,000; and Tarun Plus from ₹10,00,001 to ₹20,00,000 (introduced in Union Budget 2024-25 for entrepreneurs who have repaid an earlier Tarun loan). All Mudra loans are collateral-free, extended to non-corporate, non-farm micro and small business activities, and backed by CGFMU credit guarantee.
PM Vishwakarma Yojana launched 17 September 2023 supports 18 traditional artisan and craft trades — carpenter, blacksmith, goldsmith, potter, sculptor, cobbler, tailor, mason, barber, washerman, fisherman and others. Two tranches of credit — first ₹1 lakh repayable in 18 months, second ₹2 lakh in 30 months — at concessional 5% interest with Government of India interest subvention of 8%. Toolkit incentive of ₹15,000 and skill training stipend of ₹500 per day also provided.

Credit Guarantee Fund Trust for Micro and Small Enterprises (CGTMSE), administered through NCGTC, provides collateral-free guarantee cover to Member Lending Institutions (MLIs) — banks, NBFCs, SFBs and RRBs. Guarantee coverage ranges 75% to 85% of the credit facility. Effective 9 March 2023, the ceiling per borrower was enhanced from ₹2 crore to ₹5 crore. Annual Guarantee Fee is 0.5% to 2% per annum (slab-based on amount and category — woman / SC/ST / NER / Aspirational District units pay lower fees).
Yes — under EBLR, the spread component (Bank's margin over benchmark) is contractually allowed to be reset only on credit deterioration of the borrower (per RBI Circular dated 04-09-2019). Routine changes flow only from movement in the benchmark itself. RBI Circular dated 18-08-2023 mandates banks to give borrowers the option at every reset to (a) switch from floating to fixed; (b) elongate tenure; (c) prepay partly / fully. Borrower must receive a written communication detailing the available options.

For fund-based working capital limits aggregating ₹150 crore or more, RBI permits / encourages multi-bank consortium lending or Joint Lending Arrangement (JLA) — one lead bank, common documentation, common security and proportional sharing. Below ₹150 crore, sole banking is standard. For exposures crossing ₹500 crore, consortium with at least 2 banks is regulatory norm. We structure the consortium memorandum, define lead bank's role and negotiate the common ROI band.
Indicative timelines — Mudra Shishu: 7-15 days from complete documents; Mudra Kishore/Tarun: 15-30 days; PMEGP: 60-90 days (DLTFC clearance route); Stand-Up India: 30-45 days; CGTMSE-backed MSE term loan: 30-60 days; SME loan ₹2-10 crore: 45-90 days; Corporate facility ₹50 crore+: 90-150 days. Sanction depends on completeness of documents, financial vintage and CIBIL — incomplete files cause 60-70% of delays. We pre-validate the dossier before submission to compress timelines.
WhatsApp 9566-068-468 anytime and we respond as soon as we can, including outside standard hours for urgent Loan Advisory matters. Alwarpet clients value not being tied to a strict 10-to-5 window.
Loan advisory is independent professional structuring of credit — comparing schemes, banks and NBFCs, negotiating Rate of Interest (ROI), processing fee and prepayment terms, and aligning the facility with the borrower's cash flow and asset base. A DSA / loan agent, by contrast, is paid commission by the bank and represents the lender's product. FilingPro acts solely for the borrower under a fee-based engagement — no bank commission, no product bias, and full pre-sanction negotiation aligned with RBI Fair Practices Code.
Standard documentation — (a) PAN and Aadhaar of promoters; (b) constitution documents (proprietorship declaration / partnership deed / MOA-AOA / LLP agreement); (c) GST Registration and last 6-quarter GSTR-3B; (d) last 3 years' audited financial statements (B/S, P&L, schedules); (e) last 3 years' Income-tax Returns with computation; (f) last 12 months' bank statements for all operating accounts; (g) project report / CMA data for new loans; (h) Udyam Registration Certificate; (i) CIBIL Commercial and Consumer reports of entity and promoters; (j) collateral title documents where applicable.
Yes — processing fees (typically 0.25% to 1% of sanction amount plus GST) are fully negotiable. We routinely secure waivers / reductions on processing fee, documentation charges, CERSAI charges, valuation fees and legal opinion fees — particularly for repeat customers, high-ticket loans (₹2 crore+), and where multi-bank competitive bids are placed. Under RBI Fair Practices Code, all charges must be transparently disclosed in the sanction letter — hidden charges are challengeable before the Banking Ombudsman.
Yes. Per RBI guidelines, every borrower whose floating-rate retail or MSE loan was sanctioned on MCLR (or older Base Rate / BPLR) has the right to switch to the EBLR regime. The bank must offer the switch — usually with a one-time switching fee (typically 0.10% of outstanding plus GST, or sometimes nil under negotiated terms). After switch, ROI = External Benchmark + Spread, reset at least once every 3 months. We routinely negotiate the switch to capture the gap when repo rate falls.
