Abstract:
|
Testle India Ltd, a subsidiary of a global consumer packaged goods (CPG) giant Testle Inc, implemented a bold "zero debtor policy" in 2009 with a motive to encourage cash sales and have no credit sales. This enabled the company to realize a negative working capital cycle, but it faced a challenge from the company distributors. To make life easier for the distributors, Testle India tied up with HDFC Bank, a leading private sector bank in India, to provide channel finance to its distributors. While going in for channel financing brought about the much needed liquidity for the distributors, the facility came with its own set of problems and challenges.
