Add Pre-Paid Fees

Add Pre-Paid Fees

Pre-paid fee is the fee that can be charged to the customer before disbursal. Prepaid fee is added to the contracts created with that lending product. You can opt to include the fee as part of the loan amount using the Include Fee in Loan Amount checkbox in which case the loan amount increases by this amount. 

The fee amount is reduced from the disbursal amount at the time of disbursing the funds. For example, if Principal Disbursement is for 1000, and fee is calculated as 100, then two disbursal distributions are created. One for 900 towards the borrower, and one for 100 towards the fee amount.

For loans funded in tranches, you can select Every Disbursal in the Apply On picklist to apply the pre-paid fee on each disbursement. However, in this case, the Include Fee in Loan Amount option must not be selected. Depending on the fee calculation method provided on the fee associated with the pre-paid fee, disbursal distributions are created for the disbursal amount. If the fee calculation method is Percentage of disbursal amount, then on entering the loan disbursal transaction amount, you must regenerate the disbursal distributions.

Note:

 If you are upgrading to CL Loan 2.5012 or later, you must add the Apply On picklist to the pre-paid fee layout. For steps to do this, refer to section  Apply Prepaid Fee on Each Disbursal.
