A 12-month personal loan is an unsecured, short-term loan that can help you meet planned or unplanned expenses without a long-term repayment commitment.
A 12 month Personal Loan is an unsecured credit facility with a one-year repayment tenure. You borrow a lump sum and repay it in 12 Equated Monthly Instalments (EMIs). Because the tenure is short, you clear the debt quickly and pay less total interest compared with longer tenures. The loan can be used for any legal purpose, including medical expenses, home renovation, travel, wedding functions or any other short-term requirement. At Hero FinCorp, eligible applicants can draw up to Rs 5 Lakh with a minimum monthly income of Rs 15,000.
A 12 month tenure suits applicants who want to avoid long liabilities and close the loan within a financial year. Here is why borrowers choose Hero FinCorp:
