Dear Anuja,
Loan refers to a significant amount of money provided to the employee for a specific / valid reason.
Few Standard clauses in loan policy are : -
Minimum Years of Service Rendered (Example 3 or 5 Yrs)
Nil History of Loan Pending
Eligibility will be set basis Grade / Monthly Basic or Gross
Reasons for application of Loan might be Educational , Marriage , House or Hospitalization
The entire sum of loan availed will be split into EMIs (with or without interest , depends on company policy) and deducted in equal installments from the employee salary
Advance is a insignificant or smaller amount provided to an employee for meeting any petty personal expenses in case of contingency
In normal instance advance will only be a small percentage of the salary and will be deducted in the next salary disbursement
Company might also opt to pay travel advance ,which needs to be settled by the employee with details explanations and necessary supporting within stipulated time frame
Hope the info is clear

Anuja,
Normally it used to be 2 times the Gross Salary or a specific amount which ever is lower
Repayment Time Frame : 10 Equal Installment from subsequent month
Interest Rate : Depending on the company policy, some companies charge 10 - 12 % Interest
For instance if a company has a policy of 2 times the Gross / Month or Rs 25000 which ever is lower as the eligible loan limit
Employee A with a Gross Salary of Rs 10000 / Month will be eligible for Rs 20000 as Loan
Employee B with a Gross Salary of Rs 15000 / Month will be eligible for only Rs 25000, as the 2 times gross is higher than the limit fixed
Certain companies doesn't fix any limits but leads to huge amount being disbursed as Loan, this will adversely affect the liquidity of the company
When you frame a loan policy be careful with all these aspects and consult the top management , with regard to the eligibility, time frame for repayment and interest applicable, if any.
