Kochi is Kerala's commercial capital and the gateway to its hospitality, marine, IT services and NRI-driven real estate economy. We arrange ₹100 Cr+ corporate debt mandates across all of these.
BIG LOANS in Kochi arranges ₹100 crore-and-above corporate debt mandates for businesses across Kerala — hospitality and tourism (luxury resorts, backwater properties, hotels), marine products (seafood processing, export), IT services (Infopark, SmartCity), and NRI-driven real estate. Most common products: hospitality finance with extended moratoriums; working capital for marine/seafood exporters; LAP on commercial property; and construction finance for the NRI-funded residential market.
Kochi is Kerala's largest commercial city and the corporate banking hub for the state. Beyond traditional sectors (marine, spice trade, tourism), Kochi has developed a meaningful IT services base (Infopark, SmartCity), a deep hospitality sector, and benefits from substantial NRI investment flows.
Kerala's high per-capita NRI remittance and broad service-economy orientation create a unique borrower base — many promoters are NRIs or have significant overseas business interests.
