Question
dear , i want to start the my own small scale buisness for that i wants ur help to know more detail regarding the loan application , buisness structure  

Answer
Dear Sandip Kokate:

Before applying for a business loan register your business.

The following are the steps:
1) Choose your Business Name
2) Create Business Plan
3) Choose Business Structure and apply for all necessary licenses (if any).
The following table will help you to make a decision: http://www.blquest.biz/serv02.htm

DBA is the cheapest one. But it is the worst way to save money. In taxes and liabilities you will pay more down the road. Partnership is another disastrous option. Chose between LLC or Corporation. Your CPA can help you with decision (in relation to taxes).

4) Apply for Employer ID Numbers (EIN) with IRS:
5) Establish your business credit:
•   Request a D-U-N-S Number with D&B registry  
•   Open physical location for your business (it can be your home office).
•   Order business phone lines, fax line, 800 numbers and other communication tools  
•   Order business website and e-mail
•   Obtain all necessary licenses
•   Open business account with your bank. Try to have an average daily balance of at least $1,000
•   Establish trade references. You can start with the business credit cards.
6) Apply for Identity Theft Protection with PPL
7) Enroll your business in Better Business Bureau after 6 months of existence.
