What is a Small Personal Loan?

A small personal loan is a short-term, unsecured loan aimed at assisting individuals with urgent or everyday financial needs. A small personal loan, whether used for medical expenditures, education costs, or basic home repairs, provides instant, easy access to funds without the requirement for collateral.
These small loans are popular for their quick processing, minimum paperwork, and flexible repayment terms. It is also a wise and better option than withdrawing money using credit cards. Unlike credit cards, you repay the loan in small EMIs.

Tips to Get a Quick Small Personal Loan

We look beyond your credit score and financials to ensure eligibility. There are, however, many considerations that may affect the loan disbursal and repayment. Follow these tips for a hassle-free small personal loan:

  1. Boost your Credit Score
    Whether you are a salaried individual or a business owner, a strong credit score shows good credit behaviour and improves the probability of loan approval. Therefore, aim for a credit score higher than 750 by paying off the existing bills on time and keeping credit use low. It not only helps you get a higher loan amount but also a lower interest rate
  2. Fulfil the Eligibility Criteria
    Make sure that you fulfil the eligibility criteria, such as age, income, and other factors, to avoid the possibility of rejection of personal loan applications from the lender.
  3. Fill the Application Form Properly
    Verify all financial, personal, and employment information entered in the application. Incorrect or conflicting information might cause delays or slow down the process.
  4. Provide all the Necessary Documents
    Keep all your important documents, such as income proof and bank statements, handy. Submitting a complete set of documents helps in faster verification and quicker loan disbursal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a small personal loan with no credit history?

Yes, many banks, non-banking financial institutions (NBFCs) and other lenders use flexible credit evaluation procedures to grant small loans for first-time applicants or those with limited credit history.

How does a small loan differ from a credit card EMI option?

Compared to credit card EMIs, a small personal loan has fixed repayment terms, structured EMIs, and is often available at a lower interest rate, which makes it a more reliable and affordable option.

Can I prepay a small personal loan without any penalty?

Yes, some lenders enable prepayment or foreclosure after a minimum lock-in term, with no or little fees. Poonawalla Fincorp, for example, offers flexible prepayment terms based on tenure.

Can I build my credit score with the help of a small loan?

Yes, small personal loans are an excellent way to build or improve your credit score if they are repaid responsibly.

Can I apply for another small personal loan while one is still active?

Yes, you can, if your payback history is strong, your financial situation allows it, and the ratio of debt to income is within acceptable levels. Lenders will evaluate your capacity to manage both EMIs prior to approval.

How much can I borrow with a small personal loan?

You can apply for a small personal loan of up to ₹5 lakhs with Poonawalla Fincorp. The loan amount, however, is based on your credit profile. We also offer the option to borrow a higher loan amount of up to ₹50 lakhs with our standard personal loan.

What influence do interest rate and tenure have on my small personal loan EMIs?

A low interest rate and long tenure help you reduce your EMIs, whereas a higher rate and shorter tenure increase EMIs, and therefore, your monthly expenses too.

Is it possible to compare the rate, tenure and estimated EMIs of a small personal loan?

Yes, you can use our personal loan calculator to compare rates, EMIs and different scenarios.
