In this short article we try to address the What, When, Why, Which of Personal Loan queries that you may have.


When should I avail of a Personal Loan?

  • Consumption Needs: Purchase of Gadgets, Family Events (like marriage, birthday functions, etc), medical emergencies, travel, etc
  • Short Term Investment Needs: School fees, Tuition fees, Upskilling course programs, Professional Degree/Diploma programs, Home Renovation, Own Contribution for Home Purchase, etc.

Why not Credit Cards instead of Personal Loans? 

  1. Credit Cards are meant for fulfilling impulse purchase at a retail store. 
  2. The Credit period offered is a maximum of 30 days.
  3. Credit Cards can offer you to break your bill amount into EMIs, however, you may pay exorbitant costs for the same:
  • Cost of the switch to an EMI loan (which is typically 5% or higher and mostly hidden charge kind of nature, as most of the customers do not realize paying this)
  • Rate of Interest is around 3.5% - 4% per month, i.e. 42%- 48% per year which much higher than our Personal Loan products
Personal loans are best suited for meeting your higher expenses that you may like to pay back in EMIs.

What is the cost of Personal Loans?

Your cost of the loan is the total interest cost and loan-related transaction fee that you pay. Typically the cost of the loan in interest rate terms varies from 15% to 36% per annum. However, this rate is on a
reducing balance basis. Your actual annual cost of the loan would be around 12%-22% per
annum. The cost of loans is a factor of your overall credit profile and financial credibility.


Who is Eligible for Personal Loans?

Indian Nationals of 21 years of age or above.

Things you should be aware of while availing Personal Loans:

  • Choose your Loan partner as you would select for other Financial Services decisions. Yes, there are a lot of quick, easy instant loan options. But what most customers do not realize are the following:
  • What do they end up paying back as interest and other costs for such instant loans? Sometimes you are in a hurry to get the loan and forget to check the fine print (detailed terms and conditions of such loans)?
  • Can you trust your financial partner for future loan-related solutions when you need it?
