Types of Personal Loan Interest Rates
There are 2 types of personal loan interest rates, fixed and floating. Knowing all about these types is important because it helps you borrow smartly. If you don’t take many financial risks and prefer stability, a fixed rate personal loan is the choice for you. This is because the interest rate remains the same all throughout the tenure.
The other option is called floating rate and with this type the interest rate changes based on the financial market. This is better for those who are comfortable with some risk, as the interest rate can increase or decrease. If the market conditions are favourable, the rate goes down and you end up paying a lot less as interest. However, the risk is always there that the market could shift unfavourably, and the interest rate may be higher than what you initially signed up for.

Can I pay off the Personal Loan before my tenure ends?
Outstanding Personal Loan amounts can be paid either partially or in full. The whole loan amount can be settled in a single prepayment while you pay a part of the principal for partial prepayment of the outstanding amount. Most banks charge a penalty fee when you try to pay off your loan earlier. The prepayment fees can be a flat fee or a percentage of the amount being paid. It can also be measured on the interest amount overdue.
Some financial institutions, like Poonawalla Fincorp, do not charge any prepayment fees. It is essential to compare the penalty fees incurred against your savings on interest for the remainder of the loan tenure. Rather than making your repayment decision based only on the remaining term, factor in the interest charged when thinking about foreclosing your loan.
