Diminishing Musharakah
BankIslami uses a concept known as Diminishing Musharakah (DM) with its clients.
The concept implies the transaction agreement between the two parties will gradually diminish over time, whereas, the client will slowly purchase the share of its partner over an extended period.
It is the joint ownership of an asset between the Bank and the clientbased on ‘Shirkat-ul-Milk’.
The steps it comprises of are as follows:
- The Bank divides its share of the units purchased into several Musharkah units where both the client
- and the Bank have their assets.
- The Bank will rent out its unit and share of ownership in the asset to the Client.
- The units purchased by the bank will be gradually sold to the client by the end of the lease and as such the client will be the sole owner of the assets.
How It Works
- Identify the vehicle you’d like based on Diminishing Musharakah (DM).
- Fill in the required Application Form with the inclusion of the required documents.
- Depending on the client’s eligibility the Bank will either accept or refuse the application if it doesn’t meet the Banks eligibility criteria.
- Once approved, you will sign an agreement where you will accept to enact the Shirkat-ul-Milk Agreement and execute other transaction documents after the arrival of the Asset.
- After all the necessary steps are taken, the booking of the vehicle is done by the Bank at the dealer. After the arrival and purchase of the vehicle by the Bank, partial/ Full payment will be made for either booking or purchase. From the client’s side, you would sign the Shirkat-ul-Milk Agreement and Payment Agreement, as well, as the purchase of the ‘Musharakah Units’. Where payments will be made by the client during a certain period
- Expenses will be shared by the Bank and Client due to joint ownership, which includes registration, Takaful cost, etc. Expenses are accounted for while determining rental amount since the Bank pays the total expenses.
- Withholding Tax/ Advance Income Tax will be shouldered by BankIslami Pakistan (BIP), as the Name of the Vehicle is in BIP’s name
- Advance to Financing Tax will be at 4% (depending on the Government of Pakistan) from Non-filers at the time of the agreement.
- Purchase of the Bankislami share in units will be done periodically, with the client being the sole owner at the end of the transaction tenure.
- In the likely case of Agreement Termination before the agreed period, you will have an option to buy the vehicle on the agreed buy-out price given in the Undertaking to Purchase Musharakah Units
