Equipment Leasing for MSMEs in India

MSMEs in manufacturing are largely dependent on heavy equipment. However, investing in this often comes with high upfront costs. This is where equipment leasing steps in, helping bridge the gap by offering access to essential tools without blocking working capital. So, instead of buying equipment outright, businesses can lease it.

With equipment leasing, you can strike the right balance between affordability and scalability. So, instead of draining liquidity, your company gains the equipment it needs while maintaining cash flow for daily operations, expansion, and other growth opportunities.

What is Equipment Leasing?

Equipment leasing is a financing option that allows businesses to use machinery for a fixed period in exchange for regular payments. This facility helps MSMEs avoid the burden of large one-time expenses.

It is widely used in industries such as:

  • Manufacturing units

  • Get equipment without waiting for years of savings.
  • Keep funds free for working capital, expansion, and daily operations.

Documents Required for Machine Leasing

To ensure a smooth leasing process, MSMEs typically need to provide the following:

  • Company registration certificate (eg- Pvt Ltd, LLP, or Partnership)
  • GST certificate
  • Promoters/owners KYC
  • Business KYC
  • Audited financial statements
  • Bank statements for the last 6–12 months
  • Income tax returns of the business
  • Quotation or proforma invoice of the machinery/equipment to be leased

How Does Equipment Leasing Work?

Once the machinery and financial analysis are finalized, we explore financial institutions that can arrange funding for the machines. Once the financial institution confirms comfort on both the financials and the machinery, we proceed further with the execution.

  1. 100% of the machine cost is covered under this kind of financing.
  2. 15–20% of the machine cost is taken by the financial institution as security, which is refundable at the end of the tenure.
  3. Rental would be fixed on the total value of the machine on a Per Thousand Per Month (PTPM) basis. Generally, it ranges from ₹18–₹21 PTPM, depending on the financial health of the business.
