Most contractors know the feeling. A job needs a bigger machine, but the price on an excavator or crane is more than a whole year’s earnings. Paying that in one shot is out of the question. This is the exact problem Tata Capital was built to solve. Started in 2007 as part of the trusted Tata Sons group, it has grown into one of India’s biggest finance companies, with more than 700 branches spread across the country. So a builder in a small town gets the same backing as one in a metro.
Put simply, a Tata Capital construction equipment loan is money the company gives you to buy a machine. The machine earns for you, and you pay the loan back in easy monthly instalments from that income. Usually the machine itself stands as security under hypothecation, so you don’t have to pledge your land or house on top. New machine or a good second-hand one, Tata Capital funds both, which matters a lot when you are just building up your fleet.
So what can you put on finance? Nearly any machine that does honest work on a site — excavators, wheel loaders, compactors and road rollers, concrete mixers, motor graders, cranes, graders, dump trucks and more. Being part of the Tata group, it also has tie-ups with many original equipment makers (OEMs), so getting a fair deal on a popular model is often easier.
Here is where Tata Capital really helps your pocket. On a new machine you can get funding of up to 100% of the cost, and up to 75% on a used one, so you put in very little upfront. Repayment stretches over a tenure of 3 to 7 years, and sometimes longer, set to match how your project earns. The digital process means approvals often come through fast, sometimes within minutes. In short, you get the machine now and keep your cash free for diesel, wages and repairs. Thinking of a private lender instead? You can also compare Kotak Mahindra Bank and Sundaram Finance on our finance page, or protect your machine with Tata AIG insurance.
