But, not all the terms and conditions that come attached to these loans are well-documented or understood. Let’s take a look at some of the more common questions customers generally have about these type of loans:

1. How do I apply for a pre-owned car loan?

You can easily apply for such a loan on our website or by visiting the closest branch. You will need to provide your details and the required documentation before your loan is approved.

2. What is the maximum amount of loan that I can avail?

Depending on the type of car, its condition and age, and your own loan repayment capability, the amount that the financial institution is willing to offer will vary. In most cases, you can get up to 90% of the total value of the pre-owned car. In certain special cases, finance for the entire cost is also approved.

3. How do I know if I am eligible for it?

Irrespective of whether you’re a salaried individual or a self-employed person, you can apply for a previously owned car loan. However, your age, salary and financial standing will be taken into consideration. You are most likely to get a loan approval if:

• You are self-employed in a partnership firm with an annual business turnover of no less than Rs. 4,50,000.
