Machinery & Equipment Procurement Financing
Acquire state-of-the-art production machinery without straining your working capital. We structure equipment loans, buyer's credit, and technology upgradation schemes with competitive tenures.
The Dilemma of Capital-Intensive Equipment
Modern manufacturing demands automated, high-precision machinery to compete globally. However, committing operational cash reserves to purchase heavy machinery starves the company of working capital, while traditional lenders take months to appraise equipment loans.
Depleting liquid working capital reserves to pay machinery supplier advances
Navigating complex import documentation (LCs, Buyer's Credit, customs duties)
Missing out on central government technology upgradation subsidies (CLCSS / TUFS)
Lengthy bank appraisal cycles resulting in missed machinery delivery schedules

Frequently Asked Questions
Institutional insights regarding appraisal standards, banking requirements, and advisory methodology.
Can machinery loan be availed without giving collateral property?
Yes. Many commercial banks, SIDBI, and asset-backed NBFCs provide equipment loans secured solely by the primary hypothecation of the machinery being purchased, especially if the borrower has a strong credit track record or qualifies under the CGTMSE scheme.
What is the typical promoter margin required for machinery loans?
Standard promoter margin required by lenders ranges from 15% to 25% of the total machinery invoice value (including GST). For imported machinery, additional margin may be required to cover currency fluctuations.
