Have the Personal Loan Interest Rates Gone Down This Festive Season?

Have the Personal Loan Interest Rates Gone Down This Festive Season?

Like every year, the festive season is the time for lucrative offers, discounts and deals to boost sales. Not just retailers, but lending institutions also go all out to offer attractive interest rates and benefits so that the borrowers can easily get loans to purchase cars, homes, and festival-specific items.

However, this year, the financial institutions are going the extra mile to slash interest rates and make loans across all categories more attractive to tackle the economic slowdown caused by COVID-19. The Indian GDP is expected to shrink by a whopping 9.5% this year. Thus, lenders are coming up with attractive offers to kick start the economy this festive season.

Notably, many of the private and governmental financial institutions have announced a complete waiver of the loan processing fee. Further, personal loan interest rates have also been reduced to lure customers and get the real estate and automobile markets back in motion this festive season.

Read further to know about the factors affecting interest rates and how you can become eligible for lower interest rates.

Credit score

The credit or CIBIL score is a 3-digit number ranging from 300 to 900. It represents your borrowing history and acts as a performance sheet depicting a record of your past payments. Usually, lenders look for a score of at least 750 while giving out loans. A higher credit score facilitates lower interest rates, as it shows that you make payments on time without defaulting.

Job stability and employer reputation

The nature of your employment and job stability is one of the deciding factors of personal loan interest rates. The lenders are more likely to consider those applicants who have been employed in their current organisation for at least 6 months. Further, the enterprise’s reputation can also make a difference as this depicts that you will be able to pay the EMI on time.

Income level

Higher the income level, lower the interest rate. This is because people with a high income are considered more reliable by lenders as they are in a position to afford the repayment. People with a higher income are less likely to default on the monthly payments.
