Many of us have taken loans to finance some of life’s major events: buying the family car, becoming homeowners, marrying off a family member, or paying for a medical emergency. Taking a loan helps us circumvent our lack of large sums of liquid cash. And, we pay back the loan with interest, in EMIs. Sometimes, because of circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to repay our loans in a timely manner. Inability to repay a loan for a prolonged period leads to the deterioration of the relationship between the borrower and the lender. This is usually a bank or a Non-banking Financial Company (NBFC). Such a situation needs active management. You must understand what consequences loan defaults will have.
Money owed should be repaid eventually, but let’s take a look at your rights as a loan defaulter, and how you can set the situation right.
The Consequences of Default
There are two major consequences of failing to repay your debts.
The first one is that your Credit Score will take a beating. All credit-related information of loan owners and Credit Card users is sent to CIBIL and other credit rating agencies. They know your credit history, end to end. Every loan application today requires a reading of your Credit Score. Your application is approved only if your Credit Score is found favourable. If you default on your payments, your credit rating will go down. This will make taking loans in the future difficult, if not impossible.
Second, the property which was used as collateral for the loan can be repossessed and later auctioned by the lender after following a due legal process.
You are Given the Benefit of the Doubt
All borrowers are provided with the opportunity and have the right to approach the bank if there is any difficulty in repaying the instalments and to choose an option to restructure their debt to enable a smooth repayment process.
Preliminary notices are sent to the borrower mentioning the amount overdue with interest and penal interest. If the bank has reason to believe that the customer is wilfully delaying the repayment, or if the customer has not come forward with a definite plan of action to repay the dues, the bank can opt for legal proceedings. If there is a guarantor, the bank might approach him, as according to the guarantor agreement, he is supposed to pay the loan when the applicant defaults.
The follow-up from the bank will start as soon as a single repayment is missed. But, further proceedings depend upon the customer’s approach to the issue and his current circumstances. The legal procedures will definitely not emerge out of the blue, it is a process resorted to if initial measures do not yield results.
There are situations like death, ill-health or accidents that can unintentionally break the repayment schedule. In such cases, banks will give justifiable holidays to the customer or his family.
The Reserve Bank of India’s guidelines says that banks should give reasonable time to pay up and also forbids using ‘muscle power’ to recover loans. There is a laid down code of conduct which banks need to adhere to.
Steps to Take
There must be a reason why you haven’t paid your EMIs for a few months. You may have lost your job; you may have had an emergency which consumed all your savings; you may have paid a huge amount for your education, for your home, or some other urgent requirement.
Whatever may be the reason, if you’re unable to make your payments, you could consider one of these many options.
1. Defer your payments
You could inform the bank of your inability to temporarily make payments and seek an EMI holiday for a few months. A situation of this nature can occur during a job change or a temporary loss of business or employment. Banks can accept these as genuine reasons but may impose penalties for the deferment.
2. Reducing your EMI
If you are struggling with the EMI amount, consider having the monthly outgo reduced. You can approach the lending institution and request them to increase your loan tenure. This would reduce your monthly EMI amount though you may end up paying a higher amount in interest. Once your financial situation is sturdier, you should increase the EMI amount again.
3. Restructuring the loan
If a borrower is unable to maintain the terms and conditions of his loan, he can request the lender to relax the same. This may lead to a reduction of charges, lowering of interest rate, lengthening of the loan tenure, a moratorium on interest, etc.
4. One-time settlement
This option is usually exercised when a borrower is unable to repay his loan to the extent that his interest accrued is larger than the principal amount. The lending institution would have already classified the loan as a non-performing asset (NPA) at this stage. The borrower may be bankrupt or in no position to make further payments. He may get the option to settle the loan through a small payment. Recently, a bank offered a settlement offer to its NPAs in the education loan sector, in which up to 90% of the principal and 100% of the interest were waived off. But, exercise due caution accepting this offer: your credit report will reflect the fact that you could not repay your loan fully, and therefore your Credit Score will be affected.
Getting Back to Financial Health
Analyse your situation and have a realistic estimate for when you can restart paying your loan. Treat this as a priority. It is human tendency to start avoiding calls and messages from the bank. Do not do this. Inform the bank as soon as you can about any change in your circumstances that prevents you from paying them.
Work with the bank and work out a time-frame for your repayment. If your reasons for not paying up are genuine, the banks usually give you leeway.
If possible, try to get your friends and family to arrange for a few EMIs. This will give you some breathing space while you focus on finding a long-term solution to your financial problem.
Finally, control your expenses and prioritise between essential and non-essential spending. Minimize eating outside, going to the movies, making impulsive purchases, and other discretionary expenses. These little savings will add up to a bigger sum that will get you closer to repaying your debt.
Remember that repaying the bank to the full extent of your dues is not only your legal responsibility but also a moral obligation. You can seek ways of easing the situation temporarily but ensure that you finally clear all dues and not let your creditworthiness be harmed.
can u guide what will happen if default is made on personal loan availed abroad (eg middle east country).
what are the customers rights in such case??. if the customer is out of job and returned to india.
Best if you check with the bank abroad and ask them about helping you make a plan to pay off the outstanding amount. The rules in India and abroad may be different.

Hi Team bazzar,
I took few credit card and personal loans for business and I lossed. Unable to pay since 8months and got egal notices. I have only way to get job then I can pay but I hesitate to join any company as these bank staff may come there nd harassing me. I cannot pay full emi even i get job. I can pay less amt every month till complete the oan t.
Pls help me.
Hi Jos, Kindly get in touch with the bank/banks from which you have taken the Credit Cards and Personal Loans. Explain your situation to them. They may or may not be willing to reduce the EMI but you can try your luck. Also, try to pay your EMIs on time. Not paying on time or defaulting on payments will hurt your ability to borrow in the future. Cheers, Team BankBazaar.

Hi Harsh,
Thanks for writing to us. Check your loan documents to know what repercussions for non-repayment of loan are. You must ensure that the financier is following these rules. If not, you could consider legal action. It is always best to have a discussion with your financier to settle things amicably.

Dear Satish,
When you take a Car Loan, the car gets hypothecated to the bank. Check the terms of your Car Loan and to find out what the contract says about non-payment of you EMIs. Talk to your bank to reach an amicable settlement to get your car back. You can read this article for more information about this- What to look for in a Car Loan agreement.

Dear Kumar,
Thanks for writing to us. You can get back your gold (that was used as collateral for the gold loan) only if the total loan is repaid. If the loan has been totally repaid and the lending institution has sent the closure letter, the institution has to return the gold to the borrower.

Thanks
Dear Rockey,
Thanks for writing to us. Banks generally use legal action as a last resort. Please ask your bank for a time extension to repay your loan. Write a letter to the Head Office of your bank explaining your situation and your intention to repay the loan. If there is no positive response, tell them that you might have to file a petition in the High Court and file the same. Generally, the court permits such borrowers to repay the loan at a lower interest rate. However, it might be best to reach an agreement with your bank.

Dear Piyush,
Thanks for your valuable feedback. You need to pay your EMI as net transfer or cheque to your loan account. EMIs are not ordinarily collected in the form of cash and it is essential to have some form of proof of payment. If you have given cash to a bank employee, talk to your bank about this and try to identify the employee, if possible.

Bank threat me to pay the amount. So what should i do??
Pls guide me
Hi Palas,
Talk to your bank and explain your situation. Work towards a settlement. If the local branch is not willing to listen, write to the headquarters with all your details. Usually banks understand situations like this and try to turn things around in the best possible manner. If nothing works out, get legal advice.

If a person who has borrowed loan for 60month tenure and he paid loan 30 months he skips 31st, 32 nd loan repayment and expires and his family members repays principal of loan on 36th month and request to waived off interest for bank but bank didn’t consider this request. So is there any way to approach bank to waive off interest since we have done one time principal settlement.
Hi Madhu,
Usually banks take this up on a case-to-case basis. You can give a written request to your bank to consider your situation. You can also talk to the nodal officer of the bank to see if he/she could convince the bank officials at the branch where you are transacting to consider your case. But note that this is totally at the discretion of the bank.

Hi Ashok,
Unfortunately, you are responsible for repaying the loan if the borrower defaults. But the bank has to send a legal notice to you and the borrower. You can, of course, contact your legal counsel for help wherein some arrangement/settlement with the borrower can be made.

Hi Rohit,
Banks usually negotiate terms of a loan only under extraordinary circumstances such as a job loss. It is unlikely that a bank will agree to change the terms just because a customer has taken another loan. You can, however, approach your bank and check if they will consider your request.

If you are the guarantor for your friend’s loan, then you will be responsible if your friend doesn’t repay the loan. If you didn’t sign any papers during the sanctioning of the loan then the bank will not approach you for any payments.

Hi,
I took a loan from Kotak and every month deduction use to happen. I changed my company and Bank . Few months back, I received a message : If salary is not maintained, maintenance charge will be taken. I approached Kotak bank, they asked me to get 2 check leaf of HDFC and they will change to ECS (Not sure with the name). Next Satrday, they were like “they can ‘t do anything from here, I need to go to Kotak house. Another Saturday, i went to Kotak house: They said, they can’t do anything either I can close or go for ECS. Later I got frustrated and ignored everything. yesterday, on transferring the amount to my Kotak Salary account, I see 1300 has been charged. On asking these Kotak people were like I need to maintain 10k and they will refund the amount but they didn’t tell me about NOVA account where I just need to maintain 5k. So i have decided not to pay the Loan amount untill I get my money refunded. Could you please help me in this situation.
1. What will happen, If I won’t pay the loan?
2. I have approached these guys many times, but no proper suggestion (I asked them I can close the remaining loan amount using my HDFC credit card : no proper response)
I have tried all possible way to ask them to help me but no proper suggestion. It will be great, If you could help me with the steps which I need to take forward.
Dear Arun, When you change your company and salary doesn’t get credited to the account, the bank converts it into a savings account where you need to maintain a minimum balance. This might be the reason why charges have been levied. If you don’t pay your loan, it will affect your Credit Score and might also result in late payment fees. If you were not intimated regarding the conversion of your salary account to savings account, we suggest you talk to Kotak regarding the same and ask them to reverse the charges. You can even write to their headquarters. As a last resort, you could approach the Banking Ombudsman.

Hi,
I took home loan from DHFL in Nov’2015 which started defaulting from Apr’2016 due to Marital dispute where my spouse said that she will not let go the property and will take care of EMI’s I’ve moved out of property she resides there. however she has not paid single EMI till date, I approached DHFL with my situation they said earlier that they will repossessed my property per legal process.
NOTE: property is on joint name and in loan i’m applicant and my wife is co-applicant:
Question:
1) When I approached bank that i’m ready to surrender my property from my just to save my CIBIL record they said they can’t do anything with that. Do I stand a chance to get out the situation without going legal
2) Recently one of the recovery agent said that they will deduct EMI directly from my salary (Can they really do that?). which I DO NOT want because i’m on rent with my parents cannot survive with half salary. Is there any way I can stop bank from taking EMI directly from my salary?
Please advise!!!

Hello Team,
My name is neeta, I had purchased car from Magma finance. Due to some issue i couldn’t pay EMI for 4-5 months hence they seized my car and sold in auction. They sold the car for 5.20 lack and my outstanding was 3 lacs. in this case i am eligible to get 2 lac refund as loan outstanding was of only 3 lacs
Hi Neeta,
Thanks for writing to us. If the car is sold off at a higher price than the money owed by you to the lender/bank, you will be reimbursed with the surplus amount. It’s best to talk to your bank about it. For more information please check your loan documents.

Hi Ajay, We suggest that you get legal counsel to understand how you can recover your money. Even if the bank has seized the vehicle, they might have the right to put on a lien on your account until the loan is recovered.

My father had personal loan upto 7 lakhs. He didn’t left any assets. Now is any problem for pf insurance amount and our personal belongings at the court?
Hi Pravin, As far as we know, other than assets, banks cannot attach any other belongings to debts. We suggest getting legal help to get a better idea of how to deal with this.

Hi Bank Bazaar,
I have took Educational loan in XYZ bank in 2009. I was irregular or never paid my interest. In the Mid 0f 2016; Particular Bank approached me to repay my loan as one time settlement.#They Insisted to do so, as my name is in willful defaulters list# Actually i have a plan to take a Home loan. so, I have given a nod to them and through OTS I settled my loans. I never knew this process would have a impact on my cibil scores. out of curiosity i checked my cibil scores, which cibil replied that”we would like to inform you that cibil maintains credit data of individuals as submitted by credit institutions. based on the info provided by you, we are unable locate your information in our records. Later I approached Bank to enquire regarding OTS and how it will affect my cibil score. They Have checked in my records and replied that “form 24 and aadhar card docs ain’t available in your records. hoping so it wont affect your cibil score”. This is my Situation Pls help. Also shed the lights on ,How cibil traces the pipeline of the credit history oa an individual?
Hi Ragav,
CIBIL reports have your name, date of birth, address, and identification numbers( like PAN, passport number, voters number and telephone number) as reported by member banks and credit institutions. They usually identify an individual using one of the IDs that you might have given to the bank. Try providing CIBIL with your PAN and check if they have corresponding report for that ID.

Is it possible to request for a write-off of a home loan, whose tenure is varying (due to floating rate of interest) and amounts to over 30+ years ?
If so, what are the required steps / process to go ahead with such a loan-write-off request in case of private corporate banks (such as ICICI Bank / HDFC Bank etc) ? If this is not possible, what is the maximum duration that one can get as an EMI holiday ?
This is needed as my job’s / career’s nature is volatile and becoming a defaulter for more than 3 months or so is quite possible. In such cases, at least a minimum of 3 -6 months as EMI holiday should be offered. Please suggest / advice.
Thanks and regards,
Chandrasekhar Karri
Hi Karri,
You can speak to your bank regarding your situation. Banks usually understand and provide relief in terms of an EMI holiday or one-time settlement. The amount of EMI holiday will be at the discretion of the bank.

Hi,
I have taken education loan of Rs 400000 lakh. I started repaying after 2year & till now i pay approx 1lakh 50 thousnad.
but still my loan show approx 4lakh. i want to settle down my loan. but bank told me that norms cant be changed & if you not give i will take ligal action but seriously i dont have money. settle amount i have to take with my relative.what should i do.
Please suggest me
Hi Kumar, If you want to make a one-time settlement for your loan, talk to your bank about it. Defaulting on your loan will affect your Credit Score. If you are unable to pay the EMI, speak to your bank and see if the EMI can be reduced by increasing the tenure of the loan.
Someone has done fraud of 33 lacs with me and flew away with my purchased car. After paying 6 EMIs (HDFC bank), I am completely bankrupt. Now after this amath, I took a gold loan from the same bank due to medical emergency, however, after the EMI default for auto loan, HDFC gave me an option to pay the gold loan EMIs to dummy account of HDFC bank which I have paid in full. After two years and now near to its maturity when I’m trying to repay the GOLD loan in full, HDFC bank creating a more mess by not releasing the gold. They are saying first surrender the car or pay the money of auto loan and then release the gold. Please help me. What should I do? Please suggest me.

Hi Sir,
I took a personal loan from ICICI in 2006, I paid half of the loan until 2009 when I lost my job. This was good 7 years ago. I could not pay the remaining loan.
Now when I see my CIBIL report, I see that it i still showing as outstanding since 900 days. Why is the ICICI bank cheating in my CIBIL report, they are supposed to write off the loan as per NPA norms ( they can still try to recover though).
How do I report this to CIBIL that it is not outstanding since 900 days but outstanding since 7 years and this should have been written off.
I know why ICICI is keeping them on CIBIL report, only to harass people.
Please guide me how to approach. Can I approach Consumer Court for harassment as they did not follow NPA norms?
Hi Krishna, Until the loan is settled, the loan will appear on your CIBIL report as a ‘default’. If you are working now, you might need to repay the loan to get it off your CIBIL report. Writing off an NPA is done by banks as a balance sheet cleaning exercise and is not mandatory. Once the loans are recovered, they need to show those on their profit and loss account. For more clarity, please get in touch with a Chartered Accountant.
Hi There,
I have take a personal loan from HDFC and i have paid more then 36 EMI’s to the bank from last 1yr i job less and couldn’t pay the emi’s now they are threatened me that we will seal your property as i told them i don’t have any property under my name they said we will take your parent’s house , Is it possible? Also can i get a loan with the 550 cibil score .
Thanks,
Yogesh
Hi Yogesh, It is not possible for banks to attach property that doesn’t belong to the borrower. Your loan applications might get rejected because you have a low Credit Score. We suggest that you speak with a bank that you already have a relationship with, to find out if they will grant you a loan. Also, try speaking with HDFC bank and check if they will increase your loan tenure so that the EMIs are reduced.

Hi NYD, You can speak to your bank and explain your situation. Banks do consider such requests. They could either reduce the EMI or provide a tenure extension or do both. We are not sure whether the loan amount can be written off. You will need to speak to your bank for more clarity on this. Cheers, Team BankBazaar

sir if we fail to pay gold loan at one bank ,can we get loans from other banks in future
Hi Sindhuja, Gold loans are secured loans, just like a Home Loan and Car Loan. Therefore, they have an effect on your Credit Score. If you default on your repayments, it can negatively affect your Credit Score and this will make it difficult for you to get a loan in the future. So, please make your payments on time and in full. Cheers, Team BankBazaar

Hi Rambabu, We’re so sorry about your situation. First things first, to get back your financial security you must consider getting a job. In the meantime, speak to your bank and explain your situation to them. They might be willing to give you an extension on your loan for a limited time period (until you get a job). Once that’s done, you can also check with your bank for options to reduce your EMI amount so that it eases your financial burden. We wish you good luck. Cheers, Team BankBazaar

Hello Team,
I have taken a personal loan from 5 banks. It was an emergency medical situation of my mom and then to complete her wish to see the wedding of my younger brother. So, I spent entire loan amount on medical expenses and Wedding of my younger brother. He is a businessman and is supposed to help me on repaying the loan emi. However he is in a big loss now. He could not help me in repaying the loans. I am earning 50000 / month. It will be very difficult for me to pay all these emis more than my earnings and run both the families.
As of today I have never missed the emi. I really want to pay the loan amount.
What can I do? Please advise.

Now since graduation i havent contacted my bank till now. Am i a loan diffaulter? Can i check my CIBIL score from some other bank?
Hi Singh,
You should get in touch with your bank immediately to check on the status of your loan. Non-payment of a loan will certainly make you a defaulter and affect your credit score too. You can check you Credit Score on our website. It’s free. Click here.

Dear Sir,
My friend has signed as a guarantor for a car loan, after 5, 6 dues the borrower stopped repaying the instalments. My friend along with bank staff approached the borrower several times but there was no response. Finally, the bank seized the vehicle and sold the vehicle. Now the bank wants to file suit against the borrower and the guarantor for NPA. As a guarantor, my friend is very depressed, I kindly request you advice some possible remedy in this case.
R. Shanmuganandan.
Hi R. Shanmuganandan,
That is very unfortunate. But, since the bank has already filed a suit, its best that your friend gets some legal counsel too.
Cheers,

Dear sir, Bank people have not filed suit yet – Please reply.
Hi R. Shanmuganandan,
If your friend can get in touch with his borrower friend, he should try talking to him and coax him to repay his loan. But if the borrower isn’t reachable and is avaoiding the debt, then to safeguard himself your friend should seek legal counsel.

I HAVE TO GO TO THE BANK TODAY .. PLEASE TREAT THIS AS A LIFE SAVING REQUEST …
Hi Vijay Mishra,
We are extremely sorry to hear about your situation.
If the loan you have taken is a Home Loan, you should check if you have taken an insurance policy to cover the the loan. Though this is not mandatory, banks usually insist that borrowers take this insurance as it provides a job loss cover. We suggest that you get some legal help and talk to the bank about making a one-time settlement.

Hi Team,
I received Education loan in 2011 and I have repaid only less amount. I still have outstanding of over 10 lakh rupees. I also have two credit card aprox 50,000 each. I could repay any of these three loans as I had no job. Now I am planning to move abroad as Skilled immigrant as I have solid education record and everything. My points to get invitaion is pretty good and there’s a possibility that I will get an invitation soon.
I am financially in a bad state right now. I should be able to repay my loans once I move to foreign country with good salary. Now I am worried if my visa may get rejected due to unpaid loans. Please suggest me in which cases my visa may get rejected due to outstanding loan. Also how much percentage can I pay to get NOC from the banks in order to be out of radar until I move abroad.
Cheers!
Hi T Madhavan,

Hi Ram Singh,
Usually, you are entitled to a property that you inherit from your forefathers. But in this case since the property is already pledged, you may not be able to recover it unless you pay the dues on it. We suggest that you contact your legal advisor for help with this.

From my personal experience so far regarding my credit profile,i earlier didn’t know how about it was and when i knew i had foreclosures,later payments and even over dues,i felt really bad because then it was late and the result of my bad credit affected my credit score which was about 379 and to get my loan approved i needed 700 and above,i sort for help from big credit repair companies,but they couldn’t help me get my score where i wanted to be in the short period i need to get a loan to keep a roof over my child’s head,till a lender introduced me to a repair man who has access to this credit companies who got my credit clean and also educated me about how to maintain my credit and maintain a really good score, is where ill refer anyone that needs a deadline fix on there credit .you can thank me later.
Hi Rick A. Pearson, The best way to repair your Credit Score is by clearing your dues and repaying EMIs in a timely manner. Financial products like loans and Credit Cards can both increase and decrease your Credit Score depending on how you handle them. Hence, it is advisable that you use them diligently. A loan or a Credit Card is a responsibility and has to be repaid. Defaults can negatively affect your Credit Score. Head over here to check your Credit Score for FREE. Cheers, Team BankBazaar

I have taken a PF from a bank and two months EMI was not paid by me. They informed me about that but since i changed my office and was financially very down at that time. I couldn’t inform this to the bank. Now a notice from bank stating that “you must pay the entire balance amount of loan to the bank within 7 days otherwise they will be moving legal formalities.” I am not in a situation of repaying the entire amount in a one shot. I will pay the 2 months pending EMI including all the overdue charges and fees. Is there any option like that I can settle the 2 months pending amount now and continue as monthly EMI ?
Hi Ashwin, Kindly get in touch with your bank and let them know what happened. They will be able to provide you with further assistance. Cheers, Team BankBazaar
I have taken 3 lakhs personal loan from bajaj finserv with high interest rate of 17 percentage its 60 months tenure.. monthly EMI is 9,500 i have paid 27 months so far. Since i have lost my job i could’n pay the EMI. But i agreed to close the loan without the interest amount. Till now i paid 2,60,000 in EMI and i agreed to pay 60,000 more for settlement. But the bank is asking me to pay 1,48,000. That is really huge.. can i stand on my commitment to the bank? I dont mind about the credit score. I’m really not in a situation to pay anything right now. I asked 4 months time to pay 60,000 also. Please advice me.
Hi Ricardo Knight,
We are so sorry to hear about your situation. Speak to the bank and check with them once again if you can stick to your commitment of paying the Rs. 60,000 and close out the loan. Explain to them about your job situation and see if they can give you an extension too. You should be able to work something out with them.
In the meantime, we suggest you start looking out for a job on priority. That should set things right. All the best.

If the borrower (Personal Loan) becomes handicapped in an accident & his wife & son both are dependent upon him for their living and further the borrower does not have any asset on his name. In this case what legal steps can a bank take.
Hi Shekhar Sharma,
The bank might send you a legal notice to pay your dues. However, we suggest that you speak to your bank and see if a one-time settlement or lowering of the interest rate is possible for your loan.

hi i am a guarantor in an account and my property was attached with it . Now bank had accepted out a bid of someone else and is willing to do a registry of it and will suit file against me for remaining amount as borrower had ran away .and has become a defaulter in that case what should i do and how to get out of it. Though bank had passed a loan of 25 lakhs on just 10 lakh property .Can i file a case against bank.
Hi Himanshu, Sorry to hear about this. You should understand that if the borrower defaults on the loan, the guarantor is responsible. We advise you to get legal help at the earliest. Cheers, Team BankBazaar.
Hi there,
I took loan from the private finance company of rupees 1,20,000 and paying EMI of 10300 per month for 18 months … they are charging a lot of interest and because i had to change my job I missed on 3 payments of it and they are keep in harassing me by calling me everytime. is there a way out where in i can tackle with this situation… from February onwards i would be able to make payments again… plz suggest..and does private finance company report to cibil?
Hi Dev, Explain your situation to the finance company and work out a convenient payment plan. If they are not willing to listen, then you’ll have to try and make the payments as soon as possible. And yes, your finance company reports to CIBIL. You can check your Credit Score for FREE here to know more. Cheers, Team BankBazaar.
My father has taken a home loan with me and my brother as a co-borrower (father is borrower in the same). there after we both(me and my brother) have mutually decided to pay home loan emi in half-half. but later on my relation with my brother has been ruined. From last one year he is not paying his portion of emi, so all the emi is being paying by me from last one year, because i dont want to allow my cibil score go down.
So kindly guide me that how do i get out of this problem, can bank split the loan amoung borrowers so that if another borrower’s makes default in emi than my cibil score may not go down.
please guide me……….

Hi RICO, A loan settlement doesn’t look good on your credit history and can hurt your score too. However, considering your current situation, if the finance company is asking you to pay the settlement amount, it would be something you can consider provided you have the means to pay it as requested. Else, you can try negotiating once again with the finance company. Cheers, Team BankBazaar
Hello sir,
I am jayaraju
I have taken personnel loan of rs 149000 from Axis bank, Becoz of my family issues i have not paid my loan from past 8 months. i have paid with 27 dues, now they blocked all my accounts(canara & coproration bank) what is the solution, i can’t settle in one time & i discussed with bank people, they are harassing me like anything. kindly help me to finish with this head hech.
Hi Jayaraju, When you take a loan, you are taking on the responsibility of paying it back on time too. We understand that you had issues owing to which you missed your payment deadlines. However, the only option for you is to talk to Axis Bank and ask them for help regarding the repayments. If they are not willing to help, then you’ll have to look for other ways to settle the loan. For instance, you could borrow from your friends or relatives. Cheers, Team BankBazaar
hi ! one of my relative took a loan from PNB for his buisness expansion and i am a guarrantor for borrowing that loan by keeping my real estate original papers which includes land and building.Now i think he is willingly not repaying the loan and trying to escape from it,causing a recall notice been sent to me about the same.I tried my best to convince him for the repayment but facing ignorance from him.please guide me what shall i do on this? and what may be the legal action that bank may take in future? .
Advice me to avoid any legal consequences or any property damage….please i be very much thankfull to you.
Hi Sanjeet, If the principal borrower defaults, then it becomes the guarantor’s responsibility to settle the loan. If you, as the guarantor, defaults, then your Credit Score will take a hit and in the future lenders will not be willing to give you a loan. Why don’t you consider taking legal help?

I have an question so can you please help me I want to ask that can a bank can take loan amount back from the borrower more than the amount bank lended to the borrower. Please answer
Hi Adesh, Loans come with an interest rate. And obviously, by the end of your loan tenure, you will be paying more than what you actually borrowed. For instance, if you take a Personal Loan of Rs. 5 lakhs for a tenure of 3 years at 12% interest rate, you’ll end up paying Rs. 5.98 lakhs by the end of the loan tenure. Cheers, Team BankBazaar
Sir
My name is Joselin John. When my father-in-law died my wife including her two sisters became owners of his property. One sister pledged the property in a private bank and the other sisters became co-borrowers in the business loan. The loan amount comes to about Rs. 3 crores. My question is, in the eventuality of the bank auctioning off the land to recover the loan amount, will the co-borrowers’ other properties (not given to the bank as surety) be liable for attachment by the bank? My property (not pledged to the said bank) is jointly owned by my wife and myself and lies adjacent to the pledged property, can the bank attach our property in the eventuality of an auction or sale proceeds?
Hi Joselin, Only the property that was pledged as collateral will be auctioned by the bank. Cheers, Team BankBazaar

Thanx sir,
Kindly tell me any right to manilendor sell or any law for sell personal property against T Permit Car Loan unpaid.
Hi Satya, If you don’t pay your Car Loan dues, the lender has the right to repossess your car and sell it off at an auction to cover for your default loan outstanding. Personal property doesn’t come into the picture at all. Please get legal help if your lender is asking you to sell your personal property. Cheers, Team BankBazaar
We have unsecured business loan from few bankers and could not pay the loan after 6 to 9 months of EMIs due to slow down in business. as the matter of fact, some of EMIs we paid in 2 months delay for the past couple of months and we still have 2 months default. But the banker is pressuring us as they don’t want to cross the NPA period and almost every week i get a call from various departments in the same bank (recovery, collection, sales, credit etc). I am badly depressed and always have a fear in me that does not let me concentrate on any other works. We will take almost one year time to settle our bank full loan as we have to some of our inheritance property expected to be sold. how can i handle the banker till then and how can i avoid their calls? Or can i appoint any lawyer to handle on my behalf as i am deeply stressed attending bankers.

Hi Vijay

As a guarantor you need to speak to your friend and ask him to repay the outstanding EMIs. If he still doesn’t do it, then we suggest you speak to a legal counsel to sort this matter.
Hey Jola,
Thanks for writing in. You’re right, in the event that a borrower fails to repay loan EMIs on time, the guarantor can try to make the borrower see reason and help her/him out as much as possible to repay the debt.
Unless the borrower is a wilfull defaulter, and there’s a genuine reason for which he/she is unable to repay the loan, the guarantor can reach out to the concerned lender and try working out other repayment options such as deferring the payment, reducing the EMI, making a one-time settlement or even restructuring the loan.
If all else fails, we suggest that the guarantor get in touch with a legal counsel to sort this matter.
We hope this helps.

Hi I have signed as a gaurantor for car loan of my relative.
There is lapse in paying emi and bank has send the request letter to borrower. Total balance loan is around 3 lakhs and valuation of car is more or less the same as on date. If bank takes away the car would I need to pay if their is any difference in valuation of car and loan amount?
Hi Swapnil,
Thanks for getting in touch. If your relative has trouble making loan payments, it’s wise for him/her to talk with your lender. Banks, in general, have options to help you under circumstances when you can’t repay your loan.
In case the loan can’t be repaid, and it comes down to repossession of the car, the lender is likely to eventually send the car to an auction for sale. In case that happens, you’ll have to pay the difference between the amount that the car sold for and the remainder of the loan balance. Just as the original borrower, the guarantor is responsible for the loan and will have to repay the loan if the borrower can’t pay the loan.
Before such a scenario occurs, we suggest you ask your relative to communicate with their lender as it can make a huge difference between keeping the car and having it repossessed. All the best!
Cheers,

Hi there,
Thanks for stopping by. We’re sorry to hear this. We suggest you immediately get in touch with the concerned lender again and inform them of your payments. Make sure you provide them with the payment transaction ID so that the overdue and bounce charges are withdrawn. Hope this will be of help to you!

Hi Gajanan,
Sorry to hear this. We suggest that you speak to the respective banks regarding this matter. If you’ve maintained a good repayment record, banks maybe willing to extend the moratorium on your loans.

Hi,
Cleared off my pending dues through collection team and some depositing to my Bank account which is negative balance due to personal loan dues ,also paying overdue charges and collected NOC through net banking.
now the real concern is when i logged into check my Credit score its still showing as written off .
Will that be a permanent negative status (written off) even after paying n getting NOC ? or will that be closed and any development in CIBIlL Further
kindly give some insights,
Rgds
Hi Kiran,
The negative status will remain for some time, but once your bank notifies CIBIL of the change, it will soon start reflecting in your Credit Score.
