The Short Version
What Car Refinance actually does for you.
Raise money against a car you already own and have fully paid for. In some cases, strong income profiles may be able to borrow more than the car's current value. You keep driving the car while you repay.
What's included
- Financing on a car with no existing loan against it
- Top-up above valuation available to well-qualified applicants
- Takeover of an existing car loan also possible
- Fast processing on minimal paperwork
Do you qualify?
- Car registered in the applicant's own name
- No existing loan on the car, or one that can be taken over cleanly
- Documented income and a credit report free of active defaults
- Resident Indian, salaried or self-employed
- A CIBIL score of around 700 or above may help you get better terms; lower scores are reviewed case by case
Which One Are You
Fees and other charges
Besides interest, a lender may charge a few fees. It helps to know them before you apply, so there are no surprises.
Processing fee
A percentage of the loan amount plus GST, often somewhere between about 0.5% and 2%. Some lenders reduce or waive it during offers.
Documentation and hypothecation charges
A small fee for the paperwork, and for recording the lender's charge on the vehicle's registration (RC).
Foreclosure and part-prepayment
Closing early may carry a charge, usually a percentage of the outstanding amount, depending on the lender and how long you have held the loan.
These are general guides and every lender sets its own fees. Your expert will share the exact charges in writing before you sign.
