Understanding Recovery Fee Deduction Through an Example

Modified on Fri, 6 Nov at 3:48 PM

Example 1

Let's say a loan of ₹4,000 is overdue for 120 days and you funded ₹2,000 of it (50%). ₹2,800 is recovered (70%), so your 50% share is ₹1,400. You pay your 50% of the slab fee.


Loan Amount: ₹4,000

You invested: ₹2,000 (50%)

Recovered on the loan: ₹2,800

Your share of recovered (50%): ₹1,400

25% Third-party Expense (on ₹1,400): -₹350

91–180 days fee (50% of ₹1,000): -₹500

Total Recovery Fee: -₹850

You get (50% share): ₹550


Example 2

Let's say a loan of ₹30,000 is overdue for 150 days and you funded ₹12,000 of it (40%). ₹24,000 is recovered (80%), so your 40% share is ₹9,600. You pay your 40% of the slab fee.


Loan Amount: ₹30,000

You invested: ₹12,000 (40%)

Recovered on the loan: ₹24,000

Your share of recovered (40%): ₹9,600

25% Third-party Expense (on ₹9,600): -₹2,400

91–180 days fee (40% of ₹4,000): -₹1,600

Total Recovery Fee: -₹4,000

You get (40% share): ₹5,600

Important Points to Note

Recovery fee is proportional to your contribution: The recovery fee deducted will be in proportion to your contribution to the loan. For example, if you funded 50% of the loan, you'll be charged 50% of the recovery fee.

Fee is capped at recovered amount: The total recovery fee (including third-party charges) will never exceed the amount actually recovered. You will never owe more than what was collected.
