Entry for bank loan


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the correct accounting treatment for a business bank loan. The consensus is that a single entry debiting the bank for the net disbursed amount and crediting the loan account for the gross amount, while debiting expenses (like processing fees) is acceptable. However, if there's a GST component on these expenses, it's advisable to bifurcate them to claim Input Tax Credit (ITC).

14 March 2022 Dear All,

We have taken a business loan from bank of 15,00,000. Bank has deducted Insurance Premiun Rs. 10,000/-, Processing Fees Rs. 35,400/- and documentation charges Rs.3,000/-. The net amount disbursed is Rs.14,51,600/-. I have debited the Bank with Rs. 14,51,600/-, debited the expenses into one as Processing fees Rs. 48400/- and credited Loan account with Rs. 15,00,000/-.

Is the entry correct or will i have to bifurcate the expenses as Insurance premium, documentation charges and processing fees, as i have taken all the expenses into one that is processing fees.

Thanking you,

15 March 2022 Yes, the entry is right no need for bifurcation.

15 March 2022 Thank You, Sir for your reply.

15 March 2022 Yes, the entry is correct.
If there is GST component in processing fees and others then you can take ITC
