Frequently Asked Questions
What is the EMI for a ₹50,000 personal loan over 2 years?
At 13% interest, monthly EMI is ₹2,377. Total payment is ₹57,050, with interest of ₹7,050.
Why are personal loan interest rates so high?
Personal loans are unsecured — there's no collateral for the bank to recover from if you default. Rates (11–24%) reflect that higher risk. Secured alternatives like gold loan (9–15%) or loan-against-FD (1–2% above FD rate) are cheaper.
Is personal loan interest tax-deductible?
Generally no, except if used for home purchase/renovation (Section 24b), business (Section 37), or higher education (Section 80E — but education loans have dedicated schemes).
Can I prepay a personal loan?
Yes. Most lenders allow foreclosure after 6–12 months with 2–4% penalty. Earlier foreclosure may be restricted. Prepaying within the first year saves the maximum interest.
