A GST-based loan is a collateral-free credit facility offered to businesses based on their GST returns. It allows access to funds up to a set limit, with interest charged only on the amount used, not the entire limit.
A GST OD offers micro and small businesses collateral-free access to funds up to ₹ 1 crore. It has hassle-free documentation, quick approval, and the credit limit is based on GST returns, not financials. Interest is charged only on the utilised amount, making it a cost-effective funding option.
You can apply for the GST Overdraft Business Loan online through net banking or by visiting your nearest HDFC Bank branch, provided you hold a Current Account.
To be eligible for the GST Overdraft Loan scheme, your business must be a micro or small enterprise with a valid Udyam Registration Certificate. It should be at least three years old and must have filed GST returns consistently for the last 36 months.
The GST Overdraft itself acts as a credit facility based on your GST returns, so a separate loan against it is not required.
