Working Capital & Capex for Metal Businesses

Structured limits for steel, aluminium and non-ferrous processors, rolling mills, foundries and metal traders.

How We Serve the Metals Sector

Metal businesses are working-capital heavy: high-value inventory, price volatility that can swing margins overnight, and suppliers who demand LC or advance payment while buyers stretch credit.

We structure inventory-funding limits with realistic margins, import/inland LC lines, and capex loans for furnaces and rolling capacity — placed with lenders that understand metal-cycle economics rather than penalising them.

Funding Challenges We Solve

High-value inventory consuming disproportionate working capital
LME/domestic price volatility hitting drawing power
Suppliers on LC/advance vs buyers on 60-day credit
Energy-intensive capex with long payback periods

Case Study

Aluminium extrusion company, Bhiwadi

₹14 Crore limit restructuring

The Challenge

Rising aluminium prices doubled inventory value but the bank's limits stayed static, forcing the promoter to fund stock through 18% unsecured borrowings.

Our Solution

We restructured the entire facility — CC limits re-assessed on current metal prices, an inland LC line added for supplier payments, and the expensive unsecured debt consolidated into a loan against the factory property.

Business Impact

  • Working capital limits raised 75% to ₹10.5 Cr
  • Unsecured 18% debt replaced with 10.2% LAP
  • Annual interest saving of ₹64 Lakh
