Al-Khair Co-operative Credit Society Short-Term Business Loan (3 Months, 8% One-Time Charge)
Interest-Free Business Financing in Delhi
A 3-month working-capital loan for shopkeepers and small business owners, priced at a fixed 8% of the loan amount as a one-time service charge plus GST, explicitly 'not interest-based'. Eligibility mirrors Al-Khair's published lending gates: registered membership, an account at least 3 months old with regular daily deposits, balance at 10% of the requested loan, shares worth 10% of the loan, guarantors (one member plus one family member below INR 1 lakh; two members plus one family member at INR 1 lakh and above), one security item (bank cheque, gold, property or vehicle document) and detailed business information. The branch is instructed to avoid issuing loans against gold, valuables or documents where possible, and the Local Advisory Committee may approve mutually agreed terms. Disbursement goes to the member's Amanat account (crawled alkhairsociety.com 2026-08-06).
This is the most transparent product on Al-Khair's shelf: 3 months, 8% one-time, GST on top, gates published. Judged against bank working capital it is costly; judged against the moneylender market it exists to displace, it is transformative and non-compounding. The fiqh debate on percentage service charges applies here as across India's entire interest-free cooperative sector. For a shopkeeper cycling stock who is shut out of banks, this is the honest middle path the sector was built for.
Pros
- Rate printed on the page, unusual for this sector
- One-time charge cannot compound; published beneficiary stories describe free extensions in hardship
- Far below the 60% to 120% moneylender rates the society documents
- Quick small-ticket structure matched to inventory cycles
Cons
- 8% per 3 months is expensive if used repeatedly through the year
- Heavy collateral stack for small loans: balance, shares, guarantors and security
- Percentage-based service charge remains fiqh-debated for qard
- No Shariah board or certification published

Shariah Compliance & Oversight
No Shariah supervisory board is published by Al-Khair. The interest-free discipline is structural (no interest on deposits, one-time service charges on loans under board lending rules of 31 December 2011) and network-based through Sahulat Microfinance Society affiliation (crawled alkhairsociety.com 2026-08-06).

Why It's Halal
The page prints the pricing model plainly: 'Based on fixed service charge + GST basis - not interest-based. Fixed at 8% of the loan amount (one-time charge)' under the board's 31 December 2011 lending rules, in a product family the site frames as riba-free ethical finance. The one-time nature means the charge does not accrue with time or escalate on delay as published. Honest caveats: 8% for 3 months annualises to roughly 32% if rolled repeatedly, so the economics only beat moneylenders (documented by the society at 60% to 120%) rather than bank credit; percentage-of-loan service charges are fiqh-contested against strict qard hasan cost recovery; and no Shariah board is published. It is a registered cooperative society, not an RBI-licensed bank: deposits carry no DICGC insurance and no banking-regulator protection. (crawled 2026-08-06).
