Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions

How is car loan EMI calculated?+

Car loan EMI uses the standard reducing balance formula on the loan amount (on-road price minus down payment). Shorter tenures (3–7 years) are typical for vehicle loans.

What down payment is needed for a car loan?+

Most banks finance 80–90% of on-road price. A 15–20% down payment is standard. EV loans may offer up to 90% financing with lower rates under some schemes.

What is the typical car loan interest rate?+

Car loan rates in India range from 8.5% to 12% depending on credit score, lender, and whether the car is new or used. EV loans may have subsidized rates around 8–9%.

What tenure should I choose for a car loan?+

Car loans are usually 3–7 years. Longer tenure means lower EMI but more total interest. Cars depreciate quickly, so shorter tenure is often recommended.

Is car loan interest tax deductible?+

For salaried individuals, car loan interest is generally not tax deductible unless the car is used for business purposes. Business owners may claim interest as a business expense.

What is included in on-road price?+

On-road price includes ex-showroom price, road tax, registration, insurance, and handling charges. Always use on-road price, not ex-showroom, for accurate EMI calculation.

Can I prepay my car loan?+

Most banks allow prepayment on car loans. Floating rate loans typically have no penalty. Check your loan agreement for prepayment terms.

New car vs used car loan rates?+

Used car loans carry higher interest rates (10–15%) and shorter maximum tenure (5 years). New car loans offer better rates and longer tenures.
