Loan Against Mutual Funds

BFL offers loans up to 90% of the value of your funds, where the valuation of your funds is updated every 5 mins. Hence, if the value of your funds increases during the tenure of the loan, the eligible pre-assigned loan limit will increase. Similarly in case the value of the fund falls, the pre-assigned loan limit will reduce proportionally. This would be subject to the “Sanction limit” not getting breached.

To raise a request for additional disbursement, please choose the 'Disbursement Request’ option in the Loan against securities service section available under the ‘My Relations’ tab.

Please note that it is subject to LTV being continued to be maintained with respect to the securities pledged and principal outstanding.

For mutual fund schemes, it is updated at the end of every day.

90% LTV is always required to be maintained for loan against funds facility. LTV may alter as a result of regulatory changes. Any shortfall in the maintenance of the 90% LTV occurring on account of movement in the fund prices shall be filled within 7 business days.
