Application process

There are five primary steps to obtain a commercial loan from NBFCs:

Step 1: Choose a suitable NBFC and apply for a business loan online or offline.

Step 2: Once you receive your eligibility criteria, furnish the requested documents.

Step 3: Next, the NBFC will verify your loan application and furnished documents, usually involving a personal interview.

Step 4: Once the required documents are verified, NBFC approves the loan and starts the loan sanction process.

Step 5: Finally, the NBFC disburses the required loan amount in the bank account of the borrower.

In addition to the application form, borrowers may need to submit a loan processing fee. Also, the applicant may have to pay variable charges, including stamp duty, pre-payment charges, amortisation fee, cheque swapping fee, and more.

Eligibility criteria

Eligibility criteria are usually different for different NBFCs. Nonetheless, specific requirements remain the same across NBFCs, such as:

  • Applicant should meet the minimum annual income requirement as a company
  • Company in need of the loan should be business for a considerable amount of time
  • Applicant should be able to meet the age criterion, usually between 21-65 years
  • The business should have an upward turnover trend
  • The company should show only incur profit for the last three consecutive FY
  • The business should be able to deliver a balance sheet audited by a registered CA

Besides, companies should prepare the required documents well in advance and improve the chances of loan approval. An NBFC usually demands the following documents:

  • Filled loan application form
  • GST returns
  • Income Tax Returns
  • All the KYC documents of the company
  • KYC documents of the business owner/owners
  • Company bank statements
  • Balance sheet
  • Board resolution
  • Business continuation proof (Trade license, ITRs)

Once the requested documents are verified, and the loan application is approved, NBFCs start the loan sanction process. Besides, loan disbursement is quicker in case of unsecured commercial loans as compared to secured ones.
