     A.  EXPORT BILL NEGOTIATION

       Special Arrangement Scheme

After shipping the goods, you are obviously in need of funds to carry out further supplies.  We understand this and have made Special Arrangement for you to carry on smoothly !

Under this scheme, the documents submitted by the beneficiaries to us are discounted as per LC terms against Usance LCs, if the LC provides for payment of usance interest by the opener and can be overdrawn to the extent of such limit.

 

Though the tenor of the bill of exchange will be Usance, the beneficiary gets paid 100% of the invoice value  immediately if documents are submitted as per LC terms. The interest is recovered from the applicant i.e. importer on the due date of the bill.  We offer  fine rates for discounting  and the charges levied  are very competitive.

 

Special Offer Scheme

Under this scheme, the documents submitted by the beneficiary to us are negotiated/discounted as per LC terms and 100% of the invoice value is released immediately to the beneficiary.  But the interest in this case is borne by the beneficiary from the date of negotiation/discounting till the date of maturity/actual receipt of funds from the LC issuing Bank.  The rate of interest charged from the beneficiaries is generally prime rate of interest for the currency in which the bill is designated. But a concessional rate can always be considered if the exporter assures a sizable volume of business to us.

 

These schemes have been evolved to help the Japanese/ Korean/ Taiwanese corporate to increase their exports to India by providing credit at competitive rate of interest.
