SBI lowers income limit for personal loans

As part of its efforts to boost credit offtake, the State Bank of India ( SBI) has taken a major initiative by deciding to lower the income limit of borrowers from Rs 6,000 per month to Rs 3,000 per month with immediate effect. It has already slashed rate of interest across the board by 0.25 to 0.50 per cent, said Mr R.K. Sinha, Chief General Manager, SBI, Chandigarh circle, here today.

He disclosed that the decision had been taken in view of the demand from lower and middle income groups to lower the minimum net monthly income (NMI) stipulated for availing a loan under the personal loan scheme. Earlier, the SBI was extending personal loans to individuals up to Rs 10 lakh for travelling, medical treatment, marriage and other purposes, provided they had NMI of Rs 6,000 or above. Under the amended scheme, named as festival loan scheme for public, he said, all employees of government, PSUs, profit-making public/private limited companies and institutions would be eligible. The minimum amount of loan would be Rs 5,000 and maximum Rs 50,000 or four times the NMI. It could be repaid through maximum of 12 monthly EMIs.

The borrowers would be able to take loans at 13.75 per cent, without any primary security. However, they would have to offer collateral personal guarantee of the spouse or any other person. The loans would be available at all computerised and other authorised branches.
