How Loan against Securities works?

Loan against property helps you to avail timely finance instead of selling off the securities in a haste. The limit of the financial assistance depends on the security that you have pledged. Usually a current account is opened in the borrower’s name and the rate of interest is calculated on the amount that is withdrawn by you during the period of utilisation.

When you pledge a security, you get steady cash easily at the time you need it the most and this also means that you won't have to sell your shares and not benefit from the bonus and dividends.
