However, if you pay interest as and when applied, you are
eligible for 1% rebate in interest rate, which will be reduced

the outstanding interest for the moratorium period will be added

The EMI will be determined on this amount at the time the
repayment is to commence. |

six months after you get a job, whichever is earlier. You are
expected to pay a minimum amount equivalent to the EMI on a
monthly basis. However, you can choose to pay more than the EMI,
and we do not charge any prepayment penalty. |

course, at the same branch from which you availed your first education loan. |

Q.9 What is EMI? How
is it calculated?
A. EMI stands for Equated Monthly Instalments. This instalment comprises both
principal and interest components. Your EMI would be calculated depending on the
tenor you choose, to repay your loan. The EMI would be higher if you choose to
repay within a shorter period as against a longer-term loan. A shorter repayment
period, however, reduces your interest cost over the term of the loan. |
