Working Capital
Finance for day-to-day operations.
About Working Capital
Working capital finance covers the day-to-day gap between paying for stock, salaries and suppliers and receiving money from customers.
Common forms include cash credit and overdraft limits, short-term loans and receivables-based finance. The right one depends on whether your need is ongoing, seasonal or tied to a specific contract.

Questions about Working Capital
How is the working capital requirement worked out?
Lenders look at your operating cycle — how long cash is tied up in stock and receivables, less the credit you get from suppliers — and your projected turnover.
Can I get working capital without collateral?
Sometimes. Unsecured limits and government-backed guarantees exist for eligible MSMEs; larger limits usually need security.
