Overview

A Working Capital Overdraft (OD) is a short-term credit facility offered by banks and financial institutions to Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs), allowing them to withdraw more than their account balance up to a sanctioned limit. This facility is specifically designed to support businesses in managing their day-to-day operational expenses, covering unforeseen costs, seasonal requirements, and delays in receivables. Unlike term loans with fixed repayments, an OD facility provides flexible access to funds on an as-needed basis, ensuring continuous business operations without cash flow disruptions. It acts as an immediate liquidity solution, empowering MSMEs to maintain financial stability and respond quickly to short-term financial challenges.
