Where we come in

Five mistakes we often see.

Each is easier to prevent at signing than to fix at default.

  1. Security that is not perfected

    A charge that is created but not registered on time may not protect the lender when it matters.

  2. Covenants nobody tracks

    Missed reporting or ratio covenants can be a default even when payments are on time.

  3. Offering a personal guarantee casually

    Guarantees are often enforceable against the individual and can survive changes in the company.

  4. Launching lending without checking RBI rules

    Digital lending and NBFC activity carry specific requirements. Getting them wrong can stop the business.

  5. Ignoring the first notice

    Notices before enforcement or insolvency carry time limits. Silence can narrow later options.

Questions

Common questions.

General information only, not legal advice. Every situation differs, so speak to us about yours.

What documents are needed for a business loan?

Usually a sanction letter, facility agreement, security documents, guarantees and board resolutions, plus registration of charges with the registrar where applicable.

We review or prepare the full set.

Do we need an RBI licence for a lending business?

Regularly lending as a business generally needs registration as an NBFC, subject to exceptions. Partnering with a regulated lender is an alternative model with its own rules.

We assess your model and the right route.

What are the digital lending rules?

RBI directions set standards for lending apps, including disclosures, flow of funds, data collection and use of third-party service providers.

We review your flows and agreements against the current directions.

How can a lender recover a defaulted loan?

Routes include enforcement of security, proceedings before a debt recovery tribunal, and insolvency proceedings in suitable cases. The right choice depends on the amount, security and borrower.

We advise on the most effective route.

What happens if a company enters insolvency?

A resolution process can begin on default above the threshold, and management control passes to a professional. Creditors are paid under a statutory priority order.

We act for creditors and for companies.

Is a personal guarantee risky?

Yes. A guarantor can generally be pursued directly for the debt, and the obligation may continue even if the company restructures.

We help negotiate limits, caps and release conditions.

How much does this cost?

Documentation is available at fixed fees, and contentious matters are scoped after we see the papers. Ongoing support can run through SIRI Shield.

Fees are agreed in writing before work starts.

Free first consultation

High level is fine. We check conflicts, tell you honestly whether we can help, and what it would cost. You decide, with no pressure.
