Capital Merchant Finance Overdraft Facility in Nepal: Rates, Eligibility & How to Apply (Asar 2083)

This guide covers Capital Merchant Finance Overdraft Facility in Nepal: Rates, Eligibility & How to Apply (Asar 2083) for Asar 2083 (June 2026), using the latest figures tracked in the BFIS Compare database. Compare every bank side by side on our comparison pages.

What to compare

BFIS Compare tracks deposit rates, loan rates, base rates and card fees for every bank and financial institution in Nepal, refreshed every Nepali month. For overdraft, the headline number and the institution behind it matter most — compare before you commit, and read the fine print on fees, tenure and eligibility.

How the pieces fit together

Deposit rates set what your savings earn; base rates plus a premium set what loans cost; and card fees and interest decide the cost of credit. Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) policy moves all of these over time, which is why monthly comparison pays off.

Compare and calculate

Use the fixed deposit, loan and base rate pages for live figures, and the FD and EMI calculators to estimate returns and repayments.

How we sourced these figures

Every rate on this page is taken from each institution's published rate sheet for the Asar 2083 (June 2026) period and cross-checked against Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) disclosures. We re-verify the numbers each Nepali month, and the comparison table and the figures quoted in the text are generated from the same dataset — so they always agree. You can explore the live, filterable data on the BFIS Compare comparison page.

Rates are revised every Nepali month and can change. Figures are for Asar 2083; always confirm the current number on the BFIS Compare comparison page before you apply.

Understanding a finance company in Nepal: NRB Class, Deposit Safety, and Who It Suits

Every deposit-taking institution in Nepal is licensed and supervised by Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB), the country's central bank, and slotted into one of four classes. Class "A" institutions are commercial banks, class "B" are development banks, class "C" are finance companies, and class "D" are microfinance institutions. When you deal with a Capital Merchant Banking & Finance Co., its class tells you a great deal about what it is legally permitted to do, how it is capitalised, and why its interest rates may sit above or below those of a different class. Understanding where a finance company fits helps you choose the right home for both your savings and your borrowing.

What a finance company can and cannot do

NRB grants each class a defined scope of business tied to its paid-up capital and licensing conditions. Class "A" commercial banks carry the highest capital requirement and the widest mandate, including large corporate lending, trade finance, letters of credit, and foreign-exchange services. A class "B" development bank operates a narrower or more regionally focused mandate, while a class "C" finance company generally has the smallest scope, concentrating on deposits, retail and small-business lending, and hire-purchase-style finance. A Capital Merchant Banking & Finance Co. may only offer products its licence category permits, which is why you will not always find every service — such as full foreign-exchange dealing or high-value corporate facilities — at a smaller-class institution.

Across all classes, the core mechanics are the same. Deposits earn interest with 5% TDS deducted at source on fixed-deposit and savings interest for individuals. Loans are priced as the institution's published Base Rate plus a premium, and term loans are repaid through monthly EMIs combining principal and interest.

Deposit safety and why rates differ between classes

All four classes fall under the same NRB supervisory framework, are subject to capital-adequacy and liquidity rules, and participate in the deposit-and-credit guarantee scheme that protects eligible small depositors up to a regulated limit. That common oversight means your funds at a well-run Capital Merchant Banking & Finance Co. are protected within the same legal structure regardless of class.

Rates differ because smaller-class institutions often rely more heavily on deposits (rather than cheap current-account or corporate float) to fund their lending. To attract those deposits, a development bank or finance company may offer slightly higher deposit interest, and its lending rates can also run higher to reflect funding costs and risk profile. Commercial banks, with larger low-cost deposit bases, can sometimes price loans more keenly. None of this makes one class "unsafe" — it simply reflects business model and scale.

Eligibility & documents

Opening an account or applying for a loan with any finance company requires standard NRB KYC compliance. Typically you will need Nepali citizenship (or valid identification), a recent passport-size photograph, and proof of address such as a utility bill. For loans, expect income evidence (salary slips, bank statements, or business registration and tax returns), and for secured facilities, ownership and valuation documents for the collateral. Firms and companies additionally submit registration, PAN/VAT certificates, and board or partnership authorisations.

Who each class suits best — and how to choose well

For deposits, savers chasing the highest safe return often look to development banks and finance companies, while those wanting the widest branch and digital network may prefer a commercial bank. For loans, large or trade-linked borrowers usually fit a commercial bank, whereas smaller businesses and retail borrowers may find quicker, more flexible service from a class "B" or "C" Capital Merchant Banking & Finance Co..

To get the best deal, always compare the effective rate after 5% TDS on deposits, and compare the full Base Rate plus premium — not headline figures — on loans. Ask about processing fees, prepayment charges, and premium revision clauses. Confirm the institution is NRB-licensed, check its published financials, and negotiate: a strong salary history or collateral can lower your premium. Match the class to your actual need rather than reputation alone.
