Why Getting a Business Loan Right Matters
Most businesses either donβt get the loan they need or end up paying far more than they should because they approach the wrong lender, present incomplete documentation, or choose the wrong loan type. Acculexβs loan advisory service bridges this gap β we help you choose the right product, prepare complete and compelling documentation, and approach lenders strategically.
The Acculex Advantage: CA-Backed Loan Advisory
Most loan agents simply collect documents and submit applications. Our CA team goes further β we prepare your CMA report, restructure your financials for maximum loan eligibility, compute your debt service coverage ratio (DSCR), identify the best lender for your specific profile, and stay with you through sanctioning and disbursement. Clean books + correct documentation = faster approvals at lower rates.
Why Loans Get Delayed or Rejected
Wrong loan type, weak financial presentation, missing GST/ITR alignment, poor bank statement quality, and incomplete CMA documentation are the most common reasons lenders hesitate. We fix these issues before application.
Types of Business Loans We Help You Get
Working Capital Loan
Short-term financing to manage day-to-day operations β paying salaries, purchasing raw materials, clearing vendor dues, or funding order execution. Typically up to 12 months. Can be renewed annually. Available as Cash Credit (CC) or Overdraft (OD) facility against book debts or stock.
Term Loan
Long-term financing for capital expenditure β purchasing machinery, equipment, vehicles, or business property. Fixed EMIs over 3β10 years. Secured against the asset being purchased or other collateral. Requires CMA data and project report for loan above βΉ10 lakh.
Overdraft / Cash Credit

Convert approved invoices into immediate cash β without waiting for payment. Bank discounts your receivables from creditworthy buyers and advances 70β90% of invoice value. Ideal for B2B businesses with long credit cycles from large buyers.
Letter of Credit
Bank guarantee issued to your supplier β assuring payment upon delivery. Critical for import-export businesses. Acculex prepares the complete LC documentation and coordinates with your bank for timely issuance and amendments.
Unsecured Business Loan
Unsecured business loans from NBFCs and fintech lenders β no property or collateral required. Based on GST returns, bank statements, and ITR. Amount up to βΉ50 lakh. Fast disbursement (3β7 days). Higher rates than secured loans β use when collateral is not available.

What Banks & NBFCs Evaluate Before You Apply
CIBIL Credit Score
Ideally 700+ for competitive rates. Below 650 = rejection by most banks. We assess and suggest improvement steps before applying.
GST Returns 12β24 months
Lenders verify turnover from GSTR-3B. Clean, timely GST returns = stronger loan case. Mismatches between ITR and GST = red flag.
Bank Statement 12 months
Inflows, outflows, EMI obligations, cheque returns, and average balance analysed. Multiple account credits signal business activity.
ITR 2β3 year
Net profit determines repayment capacity. Losses or very low income reduce eligibility. We help present income correctly within legal bounds.
Business Vintage
Most banks require 2β3 years of business operations. Startups may qualify through MUDRA, CGTMSE, or specific startup schemes.
Collateral Security
Property, machinery, stock, or book debts pledged as security. Collateral-free loans available under CGTMSE and MUDRA schemes.
DSCR: Debt Service Coverage Ratio
Banks require DSCR > 1.25 β indicating that business income is sufficient to service loan repayments. We compute and optimise DSCR in CMA data.
CMA Project Report
For loans above βΉ10L, banks require Credit Monitoring Arrangement (CMA) data and a project report. Our CA team prepares banker-ready CMA reports.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a business loan if my CIBIL score is below 700?
A low CIBIL score below 700 makes bank loans difficult but not impossible. NBFCs and fintech lenders have more flexible credit criteria and can sanction loans at 14β22% p.a. with lower CIBIL scores. Alternatively, we can help you improve your score within 3β6 months through specific actions and then approach banks for better rates. We assess your case honestly and recommend the optimal path.
What is a CMA report and why is it important?
CMA (Credit Monitoring Arrangement) is a structured financial statement format required by banks for all business loans above approximately βΉ10 lakh. It contains 2β3 years of historical financials, current estimated figures, and 2β5 years of projections. A well-prepared CMA is often the difference between rejection and approval. Our CA team prepares banker-grade CMA reports as part of our loan advisory service.
How does Acculex charge for loan advisory services?
We charge a transparent, fixed advisory fee β discussed and agreed before any work begins. We do not charge hidden commissions from lenders that incentivize us to push you toward specific lenders. Our fee is typically a percentage of the loan amount sanctioned (charged only upon successful disbursement) or a fixed fee for documentation preparation. Contact us for a specific quote based on your loan requirement.
