Questions borrowers ask

Why is my personal loan rate higher than the rate shown?

The rate shown is the lowest the bank publishes, which goes to its best-placed borrowers. Banks set your rate from your credit score, income, employment, the loan amount and the asset. The bank's own page, linked on every row, lists its bands.

Is the lowest rate always the cheapest loan?

Not always. Processing fees, insurance the bank asks for, and prepayment charges add to the cost. On a floating loan, how quickly the bank passes on cuts in the repo rate matters too. Open a bank's page here to see the charges it publishes.

Does RateScan get paid by these banks?

No. We take no referral fees and show no ads, and we don't take loan applications. The order is the order of the published rates.

How we collect loan rates

From the bank's own pages. Every figure is read from the lending-rate page the bank publishes, and links back to it. Benchmarks are re-read every day.

A published rate is not an offer. Banks set your rate from your credit score, income, the loan amount and the property or vehicle. We show the range the bank publishes; "7.60% onwards" means the bank gave no top figure.

Benchmark plus spread. A floating loan's rate is the bank's benchmark (its repo-linked rate, or MCLR for older loans) plus a spread fixed when you borrow. When the benchmark moves, your rate moves with it at the next reset.

The EMI is worked out on a reducing balance with monthly instalments: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)n ÷ ((1 + r)n − 1), where r is the yearly rate ÷ 12 and n the number of months. It leaves out processing charges and insurance.

No referral fees. We don't take loan applications or get paid by lenders, so the order is the order.
