• Consortium & Working Capital Management: Drive renewals, limit enhancements, and optimal utilization of fund-based and non-fund-based limits across multiple banking and consortium arrangements.
• Project & Capex Financing: Secure funding for greenfield/brownfield expansion projects, aligning debt-equity structures, and leveraging applicable government-backed credit schemes.
• Execution & Compliance: Lead documentation, charge creation, and compliance with pre/post-disbursement conditions to ensure zero operational delays.
