Step-by-Step Guide to Getting Agricultural Loans in India

NBFC loan

Understanding Agricultural Loan

A loan for agriculture is a financial product designed to help farmers, traders, and agri-businesses throughout the agricultural cycle. Agricultural loans can help borrowers build the financial capacity, consistency, and competitiveness to manage input purchases, commodity storage, working capital, and the expansion of their operations.

We focus on fast processing, minimal documentation, and flexible repayment options through our NBFC loan offerings that are designed to fit your agricultural financing needs, aligned with crop cycles.

Recognizing Your Financing Need

The first step in the loan process is distinguishing why you need the loan. For instance, is the loan used for purchasing seed and fertilizers, checking the quality of food grains, or supporting your trading activities? At Kissandhan, we can help you assess your cash flow needs and place you in the most suitable agricultural loan, ensuring that this loan is both suitable for your operational needs and your repayment capacity.

Selecting an Appropriate Lending Partner

Having a reliable financial partner is very important.  Kissandhan Agri Financial Services Pvt. Ltd. (Kissandhan) is a subsidiary of Sohan Lal Commodity Management Ltd (SLCM) – a market leading player in post-harvest agri-logistics. Kissandhan, provides a unique combination of comprehensive sectoral experience and transparent digital capability, allowing it to deliver simple and efficient financial solutions across India’s agri and allied sectors as part of the SLCM group.

Application and verification

Kissandhan’s platform allows users to electronically submit a loan request through the “Need a Loan” portal.  After submission, an assigned Relationship Manager contacts the user to confirm the details of the loan request.  The platform offers speediness related to the loan disbursement, and it mentions that, once a request is approved, the loan could be disbursed in 48 hours or less.

Loan approval and disbursement

After a successful verification of your profile has occurred, your agricultural loan will be approved. Once your loan is approved, the disbursement is carried out swiftly. With Kissandhan, you are guaranteed to receive an explanation on interest rates, repayment terms, and schedules with transparency – no unexpected outcomes or conditions.
