Personal loan is a segment where people end up paying lot of interest and charges to the banks. Private Banks in particular and NBFC’s make a lot of income from personal loan borrowers. HDFC Bank is a prime example which makes a lot of income from Personal Loans.
As a customer it is extremely important that you do the necessary research before taking personal loan from any institution. Your first target should be to seek personal loan from government owned banks like State Bank of India, PNB, Bank of Baroda and others.
Public sector banks charge comparatively lower rate of interest on personal loans. Even the other charges are quite lower when you compare it with private banks and other NBFC’s.
Only once you know that you are not eligible for personal loan from these govt. owned banks, then you should try for personal loan in private banks, NBFCs.
