Know about the Finance and Investments Terms

There are many people who have no idea how they could influence working capital finance in favor of their business. If the same is true even in your case, here are some simple methods that can help you satisfy your basic business needs with the help of working capital finance.

1. Find out if you really need a working capital loan: The first and only way to ensure a working capital loan is beneficial for your business is by applying for it only when required. So, if you are applying for the said credit facility, ask yourself if your business really needs it. 

2. Make optimal use of the loan: There’s a defined process for availing a loan, but there’s no defined way to use the borrowed amount. Hence, it becomes very difficult to find out the optimal ways to use a loan. To answer this, sit down with your entire operation and management team and find out prospective areas which can help in overall growth of your business with a bit of investment. That’s where you should invest the borrowed money.  

3. Apply for flexi loan instead: There are times when people end up borrowing more than what their business actually needs and then pay interest for the unused amount as well. To minimize such evitable expenses (call it wastage of money), take a working capital instead of the regular version. A flexi working capital loan would approve you for a loan amount higher than your eligibility and then entitle you with the flexibility to withdraw money as you like. This way, you can withdraw only what you need and pay interest only for used amount. 

Bottom line: Irrespective of when you apply for the loan and how you plan to use it, applying for a loan and getting rejected badly impacts your CIBIL score. Thus, it’s highly recommended to check your credit eligibility in advance and ensure maximum chances of approval in the first go.
