4. INTRODUCTION
Debt capital of a company may consist of either debentures or
bonds which are issued to public for subscription or term loans
which are obtained directly from the banks and financial
institution. Term loans are sources of long term debt. In India,
they are generally obtained for financing large expansion,
modernisation or diversification projects. Therefore, this method
of financing is also called project financing.
5. The repayment of the loans and facilities is normally fixed on case to case
basis depending on projected cash flow of the borrower.
Term loans are a good way of quickly increasing capital in order to raise a
business’ supply capabilities or range.
One thing to consider when getting a term loan is whether the interest rate is
fixed or floating

12. Time to maturity
Banks and specially created financial institutions are main source of term loans
in India. FIs provide term loans generally for a period of 6 to 10 years
Interest
The general rate of interest on term loans in India is above 14 or 15 %. For
companies undertaking their projects in specified backward areas, loans at
concessional interest rate (usually 1 and half % lower)
13. Security
Term loans are always secured. Specifically the assets acquired using term loan funds
secure them. This is called Primary security. The company’s current and future assets
also generally secure term loans. This is called secondary security or collateral security.
Also the lender may create either fixed or floating charge against the firm’s assets.
14. Repayment Schedule
The principal amount of a term loan is generally repayable over a period of 4 to
7 years. Typically, term loans provided by financial institutions are repayable in equal
semi-annual instalments or equal quarterly instalments
The interest burden declines over time, whereas the principal repayment remains
constant. This means that the total debt servicing burden (consisting of interest
payment and principal repayment) decline sover time. This pattern of debt servicing
burden, typical in India, differs from the pattern obtaining in western economies
where debt is typically amortized in equal periodic instalments
15. QUESTION
Suppose a company negotiates a RS 3 crore loan for 8 yrs. from FIs. The interest rate
will be 14 % annum on the outstanding balance. The principal will be repaid in 8 equal
yr. - end instalments . What is the payment schedule?
Solution –the payment schedule will include both interest and principal payment.
Interest will be calculated on the outstanding balance on loan. Note that Rs 3 crore was
borrowed in the beginning of 1st yr. therefore, the interest charges at the end of the yr.
will be
1. Interest is 14%
0.14x3=Rs 0.42 crore.
2 Instalments 8 yrs.
3/8= Rs 0.375 crore.
Thus, loan balance at the end of 1st yrs. Will be 3.0-0.375= Rs 2.62

18. Advantages & Disadvantages of Term Loans
Term loans provide you with the money you need, but they have some risks.
Banks routinely offer various types of loans that cover the cost of whatever a person or business needs.
One type of loan a company or individual may consider is a term loan. A term loan is a loan in which the
borrower pays interest only for a set period. These loans have both advantages and disadvantages that
the lender needs to weigh before signing any paperwork and committing to the loan agreement.
Flexibility
Term loans are more flexible when compared to other types of loans. With a term loan, the borrower
doesn't have to make a payment toward both the interest and the principal balance. He can do so if it is
financially feasible, but it isn't required. Thus, a term loan better accommodates changes to a person's
budget due to unexpected life or business changes.
Interest
Term loans usually have a fixed interest rate, but this is not always the case and depends on the type of
the bank. If a term loan does have a fixed interest rate, then the term loan is extremely beneficial to the
borrower because it lets the borrower predict the payment they'll need to make. This is good for
budgeting. Term loans that have unfixed interest rates still can be advantageous, but they are riskier
because the borrower has no real control over how much interest they will pay in the future. This can
translate into more money paid toward the loan in the long run.

19. Penalty Agreements
Eugene F. Brigham and Louis C. Gapenski, authors of "Test Bank: Financial Management: Theory and
Practice," claim that the agreements for term loans often contain penalty clauses. These clauses give the
issuing bank the right to issue additional charges if the borrower is late or deficient in payments. Since
people who take out term loans generally do so because they cannot afford a regular loan, this is not
desirable.
Predictability
A term loan specifies when the interest on a loan will be completely paid. For example, a five-year term
loan will have the interest paid predictably in five years. This is different from a regular loan in which
accumulated interest may draw out the payoff date. This can be extremely beneficial for budgeting and
receipt of future loans, since an individual has some proof that her debt will be repaid within a given
period.
Assumption of Assets
Term loans work by having the principal balance come due in full once the interest is completely paid.
Therefore, people generally use a term loan to get the capital they need to generate additional funds that
will pay off the loan. However, that a borrower's venture will succeed and that they can generate the
principal amount is not guaranteed. If a person cannot generate the principal with the loan funds, then
they have to figure out how to repay a large amount of money very quickly.

21. The term Loan can be availed to
Purchase of Fixed Assets
The term loan can be used to purchase fixed assets like premises, plant & machinery
etc. The usage or performance of assets increases the business performance and
hence the profit and makes the repayment of the loan easier. Even the term loan is
settled the assets procured continue the productivity as asset life span is certainly longer
than the term loan span. If a premises is purchased then the value of premises is always
appreciated and in that case the business leverages higher value of premises which
further can be used to raise funds for business expansion or diversification.
22. Mortgage Term Loan
A Term Loan can be availed by mortgaging a kind of security like home, office premises
etc. This type of loan is borrowed for longer period of time that is 10, 15 or 20 years. The
repayment of the principal amount and interest may be fixed in nature or it may vary
over the course of repayment. The borrower may avail the revised rate of interest later
and may be benefited by saving in interest.
23. Switching of Higher Interest Loans
Many a time’s business owners opt to raise business loans at higher rate of interest.
Such loans are processes and sanctioned faster but result in heavy burden interest. This
interest payment becomes a fixed monthly expenses and starts leaking the profit. To
arrest the growing rate of interest and penalties the higher interest loan can be switched
to lower rate of interest loans or term loans. This way a borrower reduces the growing
burden of interest on business loan and can save a considerable amount of money. It
also benefits in maintaining the credit rating as the borrower closes one loan liability and
opens another in form of term loan with lower rate of interest and easier repayment
conditions
25. BENEFITS OF TERM LOAN
Fixed rate - Enjoy the peace of mind of fixed monthly repayments.
Variable rate - linked to base rates (Rates can rise or fall).
Repayment holidays - Improve your cash flow by making no loan
repayments or repaying only interest for a fixed term after drawing down
your loan.
27. Specialized Financial Institutions in India

specific needs of private enterprise. They provide deposit, loan and trading facilities but
will not service investment activities in financial markets.

Export-Import Bank Of India, Board for Industrial & Financial Reconstruction, Small
Industries Development Bank of India, National Housing Bank. They are government
undertakings established with a view to offer financial as well as technical assistance to
