Companies understand this well and offer plentiful discounts. Banks, too, are not far behind. They come out with festive offers on loans and fixed deposits (FDs).
We have compiled a list of banks and housing finance companies, in collaboration with BankBazaar, that are offering special offers this season. First up is Bank of Baroda (BoB). It is offering home loans at 8.40% onwards.
If your credit score is top-notch, you can get it at 8.40%. If the loan amount is ₹50 lakh for a 20-year period, the EMI will come at around ₹43,000. The bank will not be charging any processing fee, which could be 0.25-0.5% of the loan amount.
Moreover, the bank will be offering borrowers longer tenure so that the EMI could be affordable. However, note that longer tenure comes with the higher interest payment over the entire loan period. The interest rates on car loans and personal loans start at 8.95% and 10.80%, respectively.
Some concession is available on processing charges in car loans, while it is nil in the case of personal loans. The bank has also started the Utsav Deposit Scheme, offering 7.30% starting interest rates for the general public.
