Frequently asked questions

Why are personal loan rates higher?
Personal loans are unsecured (no collateral), so lenders charge higher interest — commonly 10.5%–24% depending on your profile.
What tenure is available for personal loans?
Personal loan tenures typically range from 1 to 5–7 years.
Can I prepay a personal loan?
Usually yes, though some lenders charge a foreclosure fee; prepaying reduces total interest.
