Neither the Guarantor nor the borrower himself release the guarantor, once the documents are executed and the loan is disbursed. The bank in every case of default has its options to initiate recovery action simultaneously against the borrower and the guarantor and based on the financial capacity can initiate action against guarantor as well. In case of death by borrower, the bank has all the rights including action against the legal heirs of the borrower and/or attachment/sale of the property/recovery from the guarantor
