R K Chhibber, CMD, J&K Bank, while thanking the Lt Governor for his support and foresight, said “the purpose of tailoring J&K Bank Business Support Loan Scheme 2019-20 for businesses is to provide them much needed financial cushion so that they are able to meet the temporary mismatch in their cash flows caused by the business challenges during 2019 followed by COVID-19 pandemic, whereas in case of ‘J&K Bank Business Support Loan Scheme 2019-20 for Hotels and Guest Houses’, the aim is to support these units financially for meeting their expenditure towards salaries to staff and other recurring fixed costs.”
It was informed that the credit scheme titled “J&K Bank Business Support Loan 2019-20” has been engineered keeping SMA1 & SMA2 borrowers into consideration. The highlights include 10% enhancement in existing working capital limit in the form of a 3 year working capital term loan (which includes one year moratorium on principal), subject to an upper limit of Rs 5 cr for SMA2 and Rs 20 cr for other standard loans.
It was further informed that the other scheme, which has been designed keeping in consideration a sizeable portion of regional economy associated with the tourism sector, has been titled as “J&K Bank Business Support Loan 2019-20 for Hotels & Guest Houses”.

The scheme will also have an initial moratorium of 12 months on principal with a maximum allowed repayment period of 36 months.
