Introduction
Finance is the lifeblood of business concern, because it is interlinked with all activities performed by the
business concern. In a human body, if blood circulation is not proper, body function will stop. Similarly,
if the finance not being properly arranged, the business system will stop. Arrangement of the required
finance to each department of business concern is highly a complex one and it needs careful decision.
Quantum of finance may be depending upon the nature and situation of the business Sources of finance
mean the ways for mobilizing various terms of finance to the industrial concern. Sources of finance state
that, how the companies are mobilizing finance for their requirements. The companies belong to the
existing or the new which need sum amount of finance to meet the long-term and short-term requirements
such as purchasing of fixed assets, construction of office building, purchase of raw materials and day-to-
day expenses.
SHORT-TERM FINANCE:
The finance is generally required for a period of one year or the business cycle which may be slightly
greater than period. Apart from the long-term source of finance, firms can generate finance with the help
of short-term sources like loans and advances from commercial banks, moneylenders, etc. Short-term
source of finance needs to meet the operational expenditure of the business concern. Types of short-term
source

LONG-TERM FINANCE:
The long term finance generally exceeds 5 years period. Finance may be mobilized by long-term or short-
term. When the finance mobilized with large amount and the repayable over the period will be more than
five years, it may be considered as long-term sources. Share capital, issue of debenture, long-term loans
from financial institutions and commercial banks come under this kind of source of finance. Long-term
source of finance needs to meet the capital expenditure of the firms such as purchase of fixed assets, land
and buildings, etc. Types of long-term sources

The above classifications are based on the nature and how the finance is mobilized from various sources.
But the above sources of finance can be divided into three major classifications:
● Security Finance
● Internal Finance
● Loans Finance
SECURITY FINANCE
If the finance is mobilized through issue of securities such as shares and debenture, it is called as security
finance. It is also called as corporate securities. This type of finance plays a major role in the field of
deciding the capital structure of the company.

Characters of Security Finance
Security finance consists of the following important characters:
1. Long-term sources of finance.
2. It is also called as corporate securities.
3. Security finance includes both shares and debentures.
4. It plays a major role in deciding the capital structure of the company.
5. Repayment of finance is very limited.
6. It is a major part of the company’s total capitalization.
Types of Security Finance
Security finance may be divided into two major types:
1. Ownership securities or capital stock.
2. Creditorship securities or debt capital.
Ownership Securities
The ownership securities also called as capital stock, is commonly called as shares. Shares are the most
Universal method of raising finance for the business concern. Ownership capital consists of the following
types of securities.
● Equity Shares ● Preference Shares ● No par stock ● Deferred Shares
EQUITY SHARES
Equity Shares also known as ordinary shares, which means, other than preference shares. Equity
shareholders are the real owners of the company. They have a control over the management of the
company. Equity shareholders are eligible to get dividend if the company earns profit. Equity share
capital cannot be redeemed during the lifetime of the company. The liability of the equity shareholders is
the value of unpaid value of shares. Equity shareholders are residual owners who have unrestricted claim
on income and assets. They possess all the voting power in the company. The rate of dividend on these
shares is not fixed. The rate of dividend depends on the availability of divisible profits and the discretion
of the directors. Equity shareholders have the opportunity of earning high dividend in times of prosperity.
They run the risk of earning nothing in periods of adversity. They control the company on account of
their entitlement to vote at the general meeting of the company. These shares are purchased by persons
who prefer risk to better return and also wish to have the voice in the management of the company. The
equity share capital is also called as venture capital as there is a greater risk involved in it.

TYPES OF EQUITY SHARES:
BONUS SHARES: It refers to issue of shares in place dividend. It is just capitalization of reserves or
conversion of reserves into equity share capital. A company which has sufficient profits may issue bonus

company cannot compel the equity shareholders to sell back their shares if they were fully paid-up
and shareholders are engaged in business competitive to the business of the company. However,
equity shareholders can be persuaded to sell their shares.
2. Claim on Income: Equity shareholders are residual owners. Their claims on income arise only
when the claims of creditors and preference shareholders have been met. In many cases, residual

dividends to them even if the company has sufficient income left after distribute profits. It is
internal management which possesses the discretion to distribute profits. It has entire right to
utilise business income in whatever manner it likes. The rate of dividend is not fixed. It depends
upon the availability of profits and discretion the management.
3. Claim on Assets: As the equity shareholders are residual owners, they are the last claimants to
assets of the company. In case the company winds up the business , assets are disposed off to
satisfy the claims of the creditors and also preference shareholders prior to equity shareholders.

obligations. As the equity share capital provides a cushion for creditors of the company.

4. Control: The equity shares run the risk of loss. However , the risk is compensated to some extend
as they have controlling power that rests with residual owners. In fact they have unchallenged
voice in management of the company. The equity shareholders retain control of the company
through voting power. Every equity shareholder has the right to vote on every resolution placed
before the company. A company is managed by the Board of Directors who control and direct the
affairs of the company. However , the supreme control is endowed with the equity shareholders

The parts of corporate securities are called as preference shares. It is the shares, which have preferential
right to get dividend and get back the initial investment at the time of winding up of the company.
Preference shareholders are eligible to get fixed rate of dividend and they do not have voting rights.
Preference shares may be classified into the following major types:
1. Cumulative preference shares: Cumulative preference shares have right to claim dividends for
those years which have no profits. If the company is unable to earn profit in any one or more
years, C.P. Shares are unable to get any dividend but they have right to get the comparative
dividend for the previous years if the company earned profit.
2. Non-cumulative preference shares: Non-cumulative preference shares have no right to enjoy the
above benefits. They are eligible to get only dividend if the company earns profit during the years.
Otherwise, they cannot claim any dividend.
3. Redeemable preference shares: When, the preference shares have a fixed maturity period it
becomes redeemable preference shares. It can be redeemable during the lifetime of the company.
The Company Act has provided certain restrictions on the return of the redeemable preference
shares.

4. Irredeemable Preference Shares

fixed maturity period for such kind of preference shares.

Features of Preference Shares
The following are the important features of the preference shares:
a. Maturity: Preference shares can be redeemable or irredeemable. Irredeemable preference shares
capital has to be repaid on winding up of the company. However, the companies (Amendment)
Act, 1988 has prohibited the issue of irredeemable preference share capital or redeemable after the
expiry of a period of 10 years from the date of issue. Thus, companies are prohibited from issuing
the redeemable preference shares greater than 10 years period.

shares are those which are convertible in to equity shares. As against this non-convertible shares
are those which are not convertible in to equity shares.

Participating preferences have a right to shares the surplus profits remaining after paying dividend
to equity shareholders at affixed rate as laid down by a company A/A. however non-participating
preference shares do not carry such right. Preference shareholders have priority claim to dividend
over equity shareholders. These shareholders are paid dividend at a fixed rate which is specified in
the agreement. The company can distribute earning among equity shareholders. The preferences
shareholders have no legal recourse against the company for not distributing dividend even
through it has earned large income.
d. Claim on Assets: No specific assets are pledged against the preference share capital. However ,
they have a claim on the general assets of the company. The preference shareholders claims on
assets are superior to those of equity shareholders. In the event of dissolution of the company , the
preference shareholders will receive their portion of the proceeds before holders of equity shares.
e. Controlling Power: In the ordinary course , the preference shareholders do not enjoy direct right
to participate in the management through voting for directors and on the other matters. Section 87

which directly affect the rights attached to their preference shares. In respect of this , any
resolution for winding up the company or the repayment or reduction of its share capital is to be
regarded as directly affecting the rights attached to the preference shares.
DEBENTURES
Debenture is a creditor ships security which enables a company to raise finance. A debenture is a written
instrument signed by the company under its common seal acknowledging the debt due by it to its holders.
Through this document the company promises to pay a specific amount of money as stated their in at
affixed date in future together with period payment of interest to compensate the holders for the use of
funds. Debenture loan may be with or without a cargo on the assets of the company. Thus, debenture is a
certificate issued by a company under its seal acknowledging a debt due by it to its holders. The company
act, 1956 does not define debenture. It merely states that denture includes “ debenture stock , bonds and
any other securities of a company whether constituting a change on the assets of the company or not”.

Types of Debentures
Debentures may be divided into the following major types:
1. Unsecured debentures: Unsecured debentures are not given any security on assets of the
company. It is also called simple or naked debentures. This type of debentures are treaded as
unsecured creditors at the time of winding up of the company.
2. Secured debentures: Secured debentures are given security on assets of the company. It is also
called as mortgaged debentures because these debentures are given against any mortgage of the
assets of the company.
3. Redeemable debentures: These debentures are to be redeemed on the expiry of a certain period.
The interest is paid periodically and the initial investment is returned after the fixed maturity
period.
4. Irredeemable debentures: These kind of debentures cannot be redeemable during the life time of
the business concern.
5. Convertible debentures: Convertible debentures are the debentures whose holders have the
option to get them converted wholly or partly into shares. These debentures are usually converted
into equity shares. Conversion of the debentures may be: Non-convertible debentures, Fully
convertible debentures, Partly convertible debentures

types of the debentures are as follows:

debentures consist of 10–20 years maturity period and are repayable with the principle investment at
the end of the maturity period.

every end of the accounting period. Debenture holders have priority of claim in income of the
company over equity and preference shareholders.

holders are treated as secured creditors and floating change of Debenture holders are treated as
unsecured creditors.

they have no voting rights. Debenture holders cannot have the control over the performance of the
business concern.

Hence the business will not affect the yield of the debenture.
INTERNAL FINANCE
A company can mobilize finance through external and internal sources. A new company may not raise
internal sources of finance and they can raise finance only external sources such as shares, debentures and
loans but an existing company can raise both internal and external sources of finance for their financial
requirements. Internal finance is also one of the important sources of finance and it consists of cost of
capital while compared to other sources of finance.
Internal source of finance may be broadly classified into two categories:
A. Depreciation Funds
B. Retained earnings

Depreciation Funds
Depreciation funds are the major part of internal sources of finance, which is used to meet the working
capital requirements of the business concern. Depreciation means decrease in the value of asset due to
wear and tear, lapse of time, obsolescence, exhaustion and accident.
Generally depreciation is changed against fixed assets of the company at fixed rate for every year. The
purpose of depreciation is replacement of the assets after the expired period. It is one kind of provision of
fund, which is needed to reduce the tax burden and overall profitability of the company. There is a
controversy among the experts regarding the treatment of depreciation as a source of funds , argue that
funds are raised of finance , a company would have improved its financial position by charging periodical
depreciation. The experts argue that the depreciation is a non- cash expenditure and as such , it does not
affect the working capital of the company and therefore , it is not a source of finance. The above
arguments cannot be questioned. It cannot be derived that depreciation being a non-cash expenditure does
not result in to cash outlay. As such, part of the profits adjusted for depreciation being a non-cash
expenditure does not result in to cash outlay. As such, part of the profits adjusted for depreciation can be
used by management to increase any of the current assets or pay taxes, dividend etc. Hence depreciation
can be considered as a source of finance in a limited sense. Depreciation can be regarded as a source of
finance because of the following reasons.
(i). Depreciation being non-cash expense, finds its way in to current assets through charging.
(ii). Although depreciation does not raise funds, it certainly saves funds
(iii). Depreciation result in to reduction of taxable income and hence, income tax liability for the period is
reduced.
Retained Earnings
Retained earnings are another method of internal sources of finance. Actually is not a method of raising
finance, but it is called as accumulation of profits by a company for its expansion and diversification
activities.
Retained earnings are called under different names such as; self finance, inter finance, and plugging back
of profits. According to the Companies Act 1956 certain percentage, as prescribed by the central
government (not exceeding 10%) of the net profits after tax of a financial year have to be compulsorily
transferred to reserve by a company before declaring dividends for the year.
Under the retained earnings sources of finance, a part of the total profits is transferred to various reserves
such as general reserve, replacement fund, reserve for repairs and renewals, reserve funds and secrete.

LOAN FINANCING
Loan financing is the important mode of finance raised by the company. Loan finance may be divided
into two types:
(a) Long-Term Sources
(b) Short-Term Sources reserves, etc.
TRADE CREDIT
Trade credit is one of the most important sources of short-term finance. Trade credit refers to the sale of
merchandise on non-cash terms by one business organisation to another. There are three categories of
trade credit viz. open account is better known as accounts, notes payable and trade acceptances. Open
account is better known as accounts payable and is the most prevalent form of trade credit. Notes payable
is used in those situations where formal acknowledgment of the debt is called for. These notes are called
as promissory notes. In some business lines, the trade acceptance is employed in place of open account.
This kind of credit also involves a formal recognition of debt. Trade credit terms specified period of time.
The credit terms also include the payment period. Availability of trade credit are dependent on several
factors such nature and extend of competition.
COMMERCIAL BANKS
The commercial banks plays play a significant role in providing industrial finance to business enterprise.
Traditionally, the commercial banks used to provide short-term loans to the industries. However, the
commercial banks have been providing medium-term and long-term finance to industrial enterprises. The
bank loan can take the form of cash credit, overdrafts, loans are granted against the security of current
assets like inventories, shares, receivable etc.
LOANS: A loans is an advance to the business enterprise made with or without security. In respect of a
loan, the banker makes a lump-sum payment to the borrowed or credits his deposit account with the
money advanced. Loan is advanced for a fixed period at an agreed rate of interest. Repayment of loan
may be made either in instalments or at the end of the expiry period. The borrower has to pay interest on
the total amount of advance. Interest payment has to be made whether he with draws the money from his
account or not.

CASH CREDIT: A cash credit is a financial arrangement through which the commercial banks allow the
borrower to borrow money up to certain limit. Cash credit arrangement is ordinarily made against the
security of commodities hypothecated or pledged with the banker. Interest is charged on the amount
actually withdrawn for the actual period of use. Cost of finance is the interest charged by the bank. The
amount can be adjusted as per the need of finance. The security may be pledge of movable property.
HYPOTHECATION: Under this arrangement, the possession of goods is not given to the banker. The
commodities remain at the disposal and in the go down of the borrower. The banker is given access to
goods whenever he so desires. The borrowing unit has to furnish periodical return of the stock to the
banker. The banker advances the money only to the borrower in whose integrity it has full confidence.
PLEDGE: Under this arrangement, the goods are placed in custody of the banker with its name on the go
down where they stored. In the case of pledge, the borrower does not enjoy the right to deal with them.
OVERDRAFTS: If the borrower requires temporary finance, the banker may allow him to overdraw on
his account with or without security. As compared to cash credit, overdraft is advantageous to the
borrower, since the borrower has to pay interest only on the actual amount withdrawn by him.
BILLS DISCOUNTED AND PURCHASED: The commercial banks advance to the borrower by
discounting his bill. The account of the customer is credited with the net amount after deducting the
amount of discount. The banker may discount the bill with or without security from the debtor.
PUBLIC DEPOSITS
In the recent years, business firms are raising short-term finance from their members, directors and the
general public. This is a suitable method of raising short-term finance. It is a cheaper source of short-term
finance as compared to bank credit. A company cannot accept deposits for a period less than 6 months
and more than 36 months. Raising of finance through public deposits does not require any security.
BUSINESS FINANCE COMPANIES
Business finance companies are established primarily for providing short-term and medium-term loans to
business firms. As these firms have limited financial resources, they provide only short-term and
medium-term finance, such business firms raise the financial resources mostly from their owners ad their
relatives or friends. Lending by these business finance companies is generally secured against accounts
receivable, stock and other assets. These companies may specialise their lending for special purpose such
as financing of consumer durables, transport finance etc.

ACCRUAL ACCOUNTS
These accounts are spontaneous and self-generating such as wages and taxes. In case of this source, the
amounts become due but are not paid immediately. There is a time lag between provision of payment of
expenses and actual payment which makes the finance available.
INDIGENOUS BANKERS
These are private individuals business is to provide finance to small and local business units. They are
engaged in providing short-term and medium-term finance to business units. These bankers charge very
high rate of interest and therefore, they should be approached only as a last resort.
COMMERCIAL PAPER
It is a short term issue of promissory note issued by a company in a private sector or public sector at a
such a interest on face value as may be decided by the issuing company. It is negotiable by endorsement
and delivery.
