The State Bank of India (SBI), the nation’s largest bank, is ushering in the festive spirit with exciting offers for its customers.
As part of its festive season promotion, SBI is waving goodbye to processing fees on car loans.
This means that you can now obtain a car loan without the burden of processing fees. According to the SBI website, this generous offer is valid until January 31, 2024.
So, until that date, customers can enjoy the privilege of availing car loans without processing fees.
In a social media announcement, SBI encourages everyone to seize this opportunity and bring home their favorite car this festive season.
SBI’s Car Loan Terms and Interest Rates
SBI applies a one-year MCLR (Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate) of 8.55% to its auto loans.
Interest rates on car loans range from 8.80% to 9.70%, with the precise rate varying based on the applicant’s Credit Information Company (CIC) score.
It’s important to note that in fixed-rate interest, the interest rate remains consistent throughout the entire loan tenure.
However, for car loan tenures exceeding five years, interest rates may be slightly higher. SBI calculates interest on a daily reducing balance, and after one year, there are no prepayment charges.
