Is there a Tax Benefit on Personal Loans?
Typically, the interest paid on a personal loan is not eligible for any tax deductions. But if you use the funds for specific purposes, you may enjoy tax benefits. Here are some of those use cases:
- Business Purposes
: If you use the personal loan for business purposes, the interest paid on the loan may be claimed as business expense.
- Home Renovation
: If you use the personal loan for home renovation, you may be eligible for tax benefits of personal loans. But please bear in mind that this is subject to specific conditions and limits under the Income Tax Act.
- Higher Education Purposes
: You may also be eligible for tax benefits if you use the personal loan to pay for higher education.
Things to Keep in Mind While Opting for a Personal Loan
Before you apply for a personal loan, it is always smart to consider a few factors to make your borrowing experience smooth.
- Maintain a Good Credit Score:
Having a good credit score of above 750 can help you negotiate lower interest rates and favourable loan terms.
- Assess All Costs:
Check for costs like processing fees, foreclosure or prepayment charges, late penalties, etc. to understand the total cost of the loan. Shriram Finance caps the processing fee at 5%* and levies a minimal foreclosure fee of up to 4%* on the outstanding loan amount.
- Consider the Repayment Tenure:
Choose a repayment tenure that works for you. Remember that a shorter tenure may lead to higher EMIs but save up on the total interest you pay. A longer tenure may help you with smaller EMIs but the total interest outgo might be higher.
- Read the Fine Print:
Before you sign on the dotted line, make sure you have read through the loan agreement. Shriram Finance discloses all fees, charges and clauses upfront to help you make informed decisions. But being thorough yourself doesn’t hurt.
