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.

Business & SME Loans at Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank: Fuel for Nepal's Enterprises

Whether you run a trading firm in Birgunj, a manufacturing unit in Hetauda, or a growing service business in Kathmandu, a business loan from Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank can bridge the gap between where your enterprise is and where you want it to go. As a licensed development bank regulated by Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB), Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank offers SME financing that is structured around how real Nepali businesses earn and spend. Understanding the mechanics before you apply will help you borrow the right amount, in the right form, at the lowest sustainable cost.

Working capital vs. term loans

The first decision is which type of facility fits your need. A working-capital loan (often an overdraft, cash-credit or demand loan) funds day-to-day operations such as inventory, receivables and short-term cash-flow gaps. You draw and repay repeatedly, and interest is charged only on the outstanding balance. A term loan, by contrast, funds long-term assets such as machinery, vehicles, land or a new plant, and is repaid over a fixed tenure through EMIs (equated monthly instalments) covering both principal and interest. Many SMEs at Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank run both in parallel: a term loan for the fixed investment and a working-capital line to keep operations moving.

Pricing, collateral and project appraisal

Lending rates at Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank follow NRB's framework: your rate is the bank's published Base Rate plus a premium that reflects your risk profile, sector and relationship. Because the Base Rate can move, most business loans carry a variable rate, so budget for the possibility that your EMI or interest cost rises.

Most SME loans in Nepal are secured, typically against land and buildings, with the loan sized as a percentage of the assessed value. Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank will run a project appraisal examining your cash flow, debt-service capacity, promoter contribution and the viability of the venture being financed. Strong, verifiable financials matter as much as collateral.

Subsidised-loan schemes under NRB

NRB operates concessional (subsidised) loan schemes to promote priority sectors such as agriculture, women-led enterprises, returnee-migrant startups and small industry. Under these programmes the government bears part of the interest, so eligible borrowers pay a much lower effective rate. As a development bank, Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank can process these loans if your business and purpose fit the published criteria, so always ask whether your project qualifies before opting for a standard commercial facility.

Eligibility & documents

Eligibility centres on a registered, operating business with a demonstrable ability to repay. Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank will apply full KYC norms on the firm and its promoters. Typical documents include:

• Firm registration / PAN or VAT certificate and, for companies, the memorandum and articles of association
• Tax clearance and audited or reviewed financial statements, usually for the past two to three years
• Bank statements showing business turnover and existing loan track record
• A business plan or project report for term loans, including projected cash flows
• Ownership and valuation documents for the collateral being offered
• Citizenship, PAN and photographs of proprietors, partners or directors and guarantors

How to build a strong application

Approvals hinge on confidence in repayment, so make that case for the bank. Keep clean, up-to-date books and route your business turnover through your Kamana Sewa Bikas Bank account so your cash flow is visible. Contribute a healthy promoter margin rather than seeking to finance the entire project. Match the facility to the purpose: never fund long-term assets with a short-term overdraft. Come prepared with a realistic project report and honest projections, disclose all existing borrowings, and maintain a clean repayment record with every lender. If your venture touches a priority sector, ask about subsidised schemes early.

Tax and common pitfalls

Note the tax treatment of your surplus cash: interest your business earns on savings or fixed deposits is subject to 5% TDS, though interest you pay on a business loan is generally a deductible expense. The most common pitfalls are over-borrowing against optimistic sales, ignoring how a rising Base Rate lifts your EMI, and mixing personal and business finances. Read the sanction letter carefully for processing charges, renewal terms and prepayment conditions before you sign.
