What is a personal loan?
A personal loan is a bank loan for personal purposes without offering any collateral. The advantage of a personal loan is that it requires minimal documentation and can be obtained quickly.
What are the applicable rates and fees?
According to Kotak Mahindra Bank’s website, “The bank or financial institution you borrow money from will usually charge you a processing fee that you must pay when you apply for the loan. The institution will also charge you for closing the loan in advance. You can negotiate with the lender, depending on your relationship with him or her.”
What is the interest rate you are charged on your loan?
The interest rate on personal loans is based on your salary or income level and depends on the bank you choose, your payment history with the bank, the loan policies you select, and other factors.
These are the top banks that offer the lowest rate on personal loans
