Q.6
What is EMI? How is it calculated?
A. EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installments. This installment
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.
You can use our EMI calculator to determine how much you would
be required to pay, based on the tenor and the amount of the
loan.
You can also contact your nearest SBBJ Branch to know the EMI
for proposed loan amount and tenor.

Q.7 How do I benefit
if the interest is calculated on a daily reducing balance?
A. In a flat rate of interest (which is what many other players charge), the
interest is calculated for the full tenor of the loan on the amount advanced. In
effect you continue to pay interest on the amount you have already repaid.
Similarly, on an annual reducing balance method, you will continue to pay
interest on amounts you repay during the coming one year.
In the case of the daily/monthly reducing balance, which is the methodology we
employ, your interest is calculated only on the outstanding loan amount, which
reduces every time you pay off your EMIs or make any prepayments. This in
essence lowers your effective rate of interest significantly. |

Q.8 How does SBBJ
Car Loan compare with those offered by other institutions?
A. There is total transparency with regards to the rate of interest and the fees
charged by us.
We offer loans for the longest tenors (84 months).
We also provide finance for both new vehicles as well as old cars (not more than
five years old), as well as reimburse cost of new vehicle if purchased within
last 2 years.
We levy interest based on daily/monthly reducing balance, unlike the flat rate
of interest or interest based on annual reducing balance method used by several
other financiers
We provide finance for one-time road tax, registration fee and insurance premium
also. We provide free Personal Accident Insurance upto the outstanding amount,
so that in case of accidental death, your near and dear ones are not required to
repay the loan.
