Answer / sridhar k s
A security is created in the case of a loan whereas in the case of an advanced, security is already there. A moving asset (i.e. Car) is created in the case of a Car Loan. The best example of an advance is Cash Credit secured by hypothecation of stocks. An advance is granted for a short period, say for a period of 12 months, renewed annually.
