Frequently asked questions
What tenure is best for a car loan?
Shorter is cheaper: cars depreciate while interest accrues, so a 3–5 year loan keeps total interest down and avoids owing more than the car is worth.
Why is my dealer's 'flat rate' quote misleading?
Dealers often quote flat rates, which charge interest on the full original amount throughout. A 6% flat rate costs about the same as an 11% reducing-balance rate — always compare EMIs, not quoted rates.
Should I make a bigger down payment?
Usually yes: financing less of a depreciating asset saves interest outright and lowers the EMI. Keep an emergency buffer though — don't drain savings entirely for the down payment.
