Business owners often hear two words from lenders: working capital and term loan. Choosing the right one saves interest and stress.
Working capital is money for day-to-day running: buying stock, paying suppliers and salaries while you wait for customers to pay. It is often given as an overdraft or cash credit limit – you use what you need and pay interest only on the amount used.
Example: a garment trader buys stock before the festival season and gets paid by shops 60 days later. A working capital limit fills that gap.
A term loan is a fixed amount repaid by EMIs over a fixed period, usually for something that lasts – a machine, a vehicle, renovating a shop or opening a new branch.
Example: a printing press buys a new machine and repays it over 4 years from the extra work it brings.
| Need | Better fit |
|---|---|
| Stock, supplier payments, salaries | Working capital |
| Machine, vehicle, renovation | Term loan |
| Seasonal ups and downs | Working capital |
| One-time expansion | Term loan |
Using a short working capital limit to buy a machine leaves no money for daily needs. Match the loan to the purpose. Plan EMIs with the EMI calculator.
