The guarantor would be liable if the creditor fails to pay the loan amount.

The guarantor is liable to pay loan if the borrower is no paying.

The Guarantor'Property provided as security would go to the control of Bank For Non Payments.Make attempts for One Time Settlement for which the Banker would Consider waiver of Interest to their Level best.Discuss with your people and sort it Out.Other wise the Property would be in Risk.

Both borrower and guarantor are liable to pay the due amount with interst to bank.

No chance. The Bank has its right to go against the borrower, or guarantor or both to realize its dues. Since the property is mortgaged, the Bank will prefer to go for SARFAESI ACT and bring the properties for sale. If business is closed due to demise of the partner, the firm can make a request for some remission in the interest asking for one time settlement. Banks will not agree normally as the property is available to it.

Dear Sam,

Can u just specify why any financial institution makes collateral security or a guarantor mandatory while sanctioning a loan?
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 12 January 2015
The opinions of expert Mr. Malipeddi Jagga Rao appears to be more suitable.
K.K.Ganguly (Expert) 13 January 2015
1. The Bank will initiate SARFAESI Proceeding and will sell the mortgaged property after taking possession of it and realise the outstanding loan amount of the firm,

2. If te sale proceed is less than the outstanding amount, then the Bank will file O.A. before the DRT who will realise the balance amount by arranging to take possession of and sell of the other assets of the partners of the borrowing firm.
