WCDL represents working Capital Demand Loan, a short-term working capital facility repayable on demand or within a specified period. It is often used for temporary funding needs. Delays in WCDL repayment indicate conduct risk. In MSME lending, it shapes how the facility is structured, priced, documented, disbursed and monitored after sanction. It should be reviewed with the borrower’s actual cash flows, existing exposure, repayment behaviour and the purpose for which the facility is being used. For example, the same sanction amount can carry different risk depending on tenor, repayment route, collateral, utilisation and renewal conditions. It matters because facility terms influence cash-flow burden, utilisation behaviour, approval authority, documentation and customer communication. The common caution is to verify the amount, tenor, repayment cycle, moratorium, security, renewal terms and approval conditions instead of reading the field in isolation.
