What is the Eligibility of Getting a Used Car Loan with Tata Capital?

What is the Eligibility of Getting a Used Car Loan with Tata Capital?

With India entering the BS-VI era from April 2020, car manufacturing will require advanced technology, triggering price hikes for new cars. Conversely, the reduction in Good and Services Tax (GST) rate on used vehicles from 28% to 12-18% has made used cars more affordable. 

If you are looking to purchase a four-wheeler, this is the best time to buy a second-hand car. Moreover, if you are facing a cash crunch, you can mortgage your existing vehicle and obtain a used car loan to tide over the crisis. Tata Capital offers such loans to salaried as well as self-employed individuals. Here are the conditions that you must fulfill to avail of the loan.

General eligibility criteria for a second hand car loan:

  • Your monthly income must be at least Rs. 20,000.
  • You must have a strong credit score and a good credit history to convince Tata Capital of your repayment capacity.
  • Usually, guarantors are not necessary to get a loan for used cars. However, if your income fails to meet the eligibility terms, you can still obtain the loan with a third-party guarantor.
  • A fixed-line telephone or a postpaid mobile connection is mandatory, and you need to submit a copy of the bill.

Apart from these conditions, some other specific criteria could be applicable to you, based on your profession. The different requirements are mentioned below.
