    I have personal loan from HDFC I had paid 7 EMI and want to foreclosed my loan. HDFC says I need to pay 12 month EMI to foreclosed. Is that correct or wrong as per RBI ?

    1. I think it would be as per your home loan agreement.

    2. Saurav says:

      Yes they are absolutely right as there is a locking period of 12 months in hdfc bank

    Hi,

    I have applied for personal loan in HDFC bank, at the time of log in I selected maturity for 3 years now I want to revise it to 2 years, but the bank executive is saying that I can not revise maturity as the file was already logged in, please suggest me how to reduce maturity as my loan is still under progress and did not given checks till date.

    1. You can increase your EMI later which will reduce your tenure

      1. Kiran says:

        Yes I can reduce my tenure but it’s after 1 year, till the time most part of payment will deduct for ROI only and small portion of payment will calculate for principal amount hence I am worried about my the tenure.

    Dear Sir,
    With regards to personal loan I had got a approval for personal loan amt 1.5 L. On interest by above 11.49%.

    My company may comes under c grade. But they had given interest @ 15.99.

    Is it correct interest rate which is received mail from HDFC Bank Pune.

    I hope interest should be 11.99.%.

    Please advise.

    1. That you need to check with their branch only !

    2. Kiran says:

      Interest will be calculated on basis of your income, loan amount and Cibil score also it does matter if you applied through any third party service provider, like as Bank Bazar and Paisa Bazar. Banks will reduce interest if you approach through these kind third party sources.

      1. Thanks for sharing that Kiran

    Looks like there are no “Guidelines” as such. You can talk to the Banks Nodal officer for any queries/grievances. Just talk to the CC and ask them to give the address/contacts of the nodal officer.
