FAQ
Common questions
Can a trust or society borrow for a school?
Yes. Many banks and NBFCs lend to educational trusts and societies. The trust deed must permit borrowing, and trustees typically provide guarantees. We check this upfront.
Is collateral always required?
Larger infrastructure loans are usually secured by the school or trust property. Smaller working-capital or equipment needs may have lighter collateral requirements, depending on the lender and the institution's track record.
Can repayments follow our fee-collection cycle?
Often, yes. Lenders familiar with the education sector can structure moratoriums during construction and repayment schedules that match term-wise fee inflows.
How long does the process take?
It depends on the loan type, amount and how complete the documentation is. A well-prepared file moves significantly faster — which is where we help most.
