Factors Affecting Indian Bank Car Loan Interest Rate

The interest rate you are ultimately offered depends on various factors. These are:

• Credit score: A good credit score means that you make sure you pay your debts on time. As a result, banks will be willing to offer a lower rate of interest. On the other hand, a poor credit score tells banks that you may not be able to pay the instalments on time. In such cases, the bank is likely to charge you a high rate of interest and in some cases, they may even reject your car loan application.
• Income: Your income is an important aspect of your profile the bank will look into while approving the loan as well as while deciding the interest rate. If you have a high income, the bank need not worry about default payments so it will be willing to lower the rate of interest.

• Loan tenure: The loan tenure can affect the interest you pay to the bank. The interest rate offered, hence, may also differ accordingly. A long tenure could mean a lower rate of interest since the interest amount is bound to be high anyway.
• Car model: In the event that you are unable to repay the loan, banks will be left with no choice but to seize the vehicle and sell it to recover the outstanding amount. Upon reselling the car, the value depreciates significantly. Some car models depreciate much faster than others. So, while buying a car, choosing a model which depreciates slowly means that you may get a favourable rate of interest.
• Age of the car: In case of second-hand cars, the age of the car plays an important role in determining the interest rate. Buying a new car will most likely mean that the car is in a better working condition and has a longer life.
