How the rate is built, and what lenders check

Most Nepali loans are floating: rate = the bank's base rate + a fixed premium, resetting when the base rate moves with NRB policy. Lenders also weigh your income and repayment capacity, the collateral value and loan-to-value (LTV) limit, your credit history, and the tenure. A longer tenure lowers the EMI but raises total interest.

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.

Other Credit Options at ICFC Finance: Beyond the Standard Loan

Not every borrowing need fits a home or auto loan. Alongside its flagship products, ICFC Finance — like most every Nepali finance company regulated by Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) — offers a family of specialised credit facilities. Each is built for a different purpose, a different repayment rhythm and a different risk profile. Understanding what each one actually does helps you borrow the right way rather than simply the fastest way. Below is a plain-English guide to the main options, who they suit, and the cautions that matter most.

Hire Purchase

Hire purchase finances a specific asset — typically a vehicle, plant or equipment — where the asset itself serves as collateral. You repay in fixed monthly EMIs over the agreed term, and full ownership transfers only once the final instalment clears. It suits salaried professionals and businesses acquiring productive assets without a large upfront outlay. Caution: the lending rate moves with ICFC Finance's published Base Rate plus a premium, so instalments can rise over a long tenure; missing EMIs risks repossession of the very asset you rely on.

Overdraft (OD)

An overdraft lets you draw beyond your current-account balance up to a sanctioned limit, and you pay interest only on the amount actually used, day by day. It is ideal for businesses managing irregular cash flow — bridging the gap between paying suppliers and collecting from customers. Caution: ODs are usually renewable annually and repayable on demand, so treat the limit as a buffer, not permanent capital. Continuous full utilisation signals stress and can lead to non-renewal.

Loan Against Fixed Deposit

Rather than breaking a fixed deposit early and losing interest, you can pledge it and borrow against a large share of its value. The rate is typically a modest premium over your deposit rate, and approval is quick because the collateral is cash held with ICFC Finance. It suits anyone facing a short-term need who wants to keep their deposit — and its accruing interest — intact. Remember your deposit interest still attracts 5% TDS regardless of the loan.

Share / Margin Loan

A margin loan lets you borrow against listed shares to invest further, with the securities pledged and valued at a regulated margin. It suits experienced investors who understand market volatility. Caution: if share prices fall, ICFC Finance can issue a margin call requiring you to top up collateral or sell holdings — sometimes at the worst possible moment. NRB caps aggregate margin lending, so this is best used conservatively, never as a way to over-leverage a single position.

Working Capital

Working-capital finance funds the everyday operating cycle of a business — inventory, receivables and short-term obligations — rather than long-term assets. Facilities are usually reviewed yearly against your turnover and are secured by stock, receivables or property. They suit trading, manufacturing and service enterprises with genuine, documented cash-flow needs. Caution: diverting working capital into fixed assets or unrelated spending is a common and serious pitfall that regulators and ICFC Finance both scrutinise.

Digital / Instant Loans

Increasingly, ICFC Finance offers small, pre-approved digital loans disbursed through mobile banking within minutes, based on your salary or transaction history. They are genuinely useful for small, short emergencies. Caution: convenience carries a cost — limits are small, tenures short, and the effective cost of borrowing for a brief period can be high. Borrow only what you can repay on the next cycle.

Eligibility & Documents

Requirements vary by product, but ICFC Finance will complete full KYC and generally ask for the following:

• Identity & KYC: citizenship certificate, PAN, recent photographs and a completed KYC form.
• Income proof: salary certificate and bank statements for individuals; audited financials, tax returns and firm registration for businesses.
• Collateral papers: vehicle/equipment quotation (hire purchase), deposit receipt (loan against FD), demat and share statements (margin), or property documents and stock reports (working capital and OD).
• Purpose declaration and any NRB-mandated undertakings for margin or large facilities.

How to Get the Best Deal

Match the product to the need: use an OD or working-capital line for recurring cash-flow gaps, and hire purchase or a term facility for one-off asset purchases. Compare ICFC Finance's Base Rate and premium against other lenders, and ask for the effective rate, all fees and the renewal terms in writing. For a loan against FD, confirm whether pledging affects your deposit's TDS treatment and maturity. Keep utilisation healthy, repay promptly to protect your credit record, and never borrow short-term money to fund long-term assets.
