Why you need it

When you need it

Secure a loan against movable fixtures, equipment or business assets staying in the borrower's possession — unlike a mortgage of land/building. The schedule must accurately identify movables, exclude leased/third-party items, state the facility and cover removal, insurance and enforcement. Punjab's Entry 6 (2024) covers this at 0.25% of the loan/debt. A company borrower may also need Companies Act charge registration. Permanently attached items aren't automatically movable, and the word doesn't itself hand over possession.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.
