What is a loan against shares account?

A loan against shares account is a secured credit facility that allows you to raise funds by pledging your listed equity shares as collateral, instead of selling them. Your shares continue to remain in your demat account, but a lien is marked in favour of the lender until the loan is fully repaid.

This account typically functions like an overdraft. Once the loan is approved, you receive a sanctioned limit based on the value, type, and eligibility of the shares you pledge. You can withdraw funds as needed and are charged interest only on the amount you actually utilise, not on the entire sanctioned limit.

The biggest advantage of a loan against shares account is that it helps you meet liquidity needs without disturbing your long-term investment strategy. You may continue to benefit from potential capital appreciation and dividends, while enjoying lower interest rates compared to unsecured loan.

Frequently asked questions

Eligibility

Management

Charges

What is a loan against shares account?

A loan against shares account is a secured credit facility where you pledge listed equity shares to borrow funds. The shares remain in your demat account with a lien, allowing you to access liquidity without selling your investments.

Can I withdraw partial funds or do I have to withdraw the entire limit?

You can withdraw partial funds as per your requirement. There is no obligation to use the full sanctioned limit, and you may make multiple withdrawals within the available limit.

How is interest charged on the borrowed amount?

Interest is charged only on the amount you actually withdraw, not on the total sanctioned limit. This makes the facility cost-efficient, especially if you need funds intermittently.

What is a loan against equity shares and how does it work?

A loan against equity shares is a secured credit facility where you pledge eligible listed shares as collateral. The lender sets a credit limit based on share value, and interest is charged only on the amount you actually use.

How much can I borrow as a loan against my shares (LTV)?

The loan amount depends on the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, usually capped at a fixed percentage of the shares’ current market value. The exact LTV varies by share type, volatility, and regulatory guidelines.

What interest rates apply to loans against equity shares?

Interest rates are generally lower than unsecured loans because shares act as collateral. Rates depend on market conditions, lender policies, share quality, and utilisation. Interest is typically charged only on the utilised loan amount.

Which securities are eligible for pledging?

Only approved, listed equity shares with adequate liquidity are accepted. Shares must be held in demat form and appear on the lender’s approved list. Illiquid, penny, or restricted stocks are usually not eligible.

Will I continue to receive dividends on pledged shares?

Yes. Even after pledging, you remain the owner of the shares. Dividends, bonuses, and other corporate actions are credited to your account, unless adjusted against dues as per the loan agreement.

How long does disbursal take after pledging shares?

Once shares are successfully pledged and documentation is completed, disbursal is usually quick. In most cases, funds are credited within the same day or within 24 working hours, subject to verification.

What is a margin call and how will I be notified?

A margin call occurs when the value of pledged shares falls below the required level. You are notified through SMS, email, or app alerts, asking you to restore the margin within a specified timeframe.

What options do I have if a margin call occurs?

You can meet a margin call by adding more eligible shares, repaying part of the outstanding loan, or providing additional funds. Timely action helps avoid forced sale of pledged securities.

Are there foreclosure or prepayment charges on these loans?

Many lenders allow part-prepayment or foreclosure without heavy penalties, especially for overdraft-style facilities. However, charges, if any, depend on the lender’s terms and should be checked in the loan agreement.

What happens if I default on the loan against shares?

If you fail to repay or respond to margin calls, the lender has the right to sell pledged shares to recover dues. Defaults may also impact your credit profile and future borrowing ability.
