With the opening of the banking sector and strict competition, both private and public sector players are coming out with new and innovative loan plans to increase the customer base. A number of loans such as mortgage loans, personal computer loans, personal loans, home loans, equity loans, equipment loans,education loans, car loans are becoming increasingly popular.
A loan is a kind of debt, which the bank provides for a particular period of time. Banks normally charge interest on the amount of debt as a cost for providing the loan service. The rate of interest is determined on the basis of prime lending rate (PLR)- A rate of interest which banks generally charge from their steady and credit worthy customers.
The repayment is generally done through what is known as Equated Monthly Instalments (EMI). EMI includes not only the amount of loan but also the rate of interest for taking the loan. Usually a longer term loan is more expensive overall, than a shorter loan, this is because a lending institution has a higher risk over a longer period of time. EMI remains constant over the entire tenure of the loan. In the beginning, the interest rate component is higher than the principal amount in the EMI. Towards the end of the loan tenure, the principal amount becomes higher than the interest rate. EMI is calculated on a daily/monthly/quarterly/half yearly reducing balance as the case may be.
Depending on the kind of loan, banks usually ask for a security, which may be a tangible collateral security such a s land, building or in form of intangible security. A bank may also ask for your NSC certificates and other investments to reduce their risk.
