Lowest starting rates

Navi, Poonawalla Fincorp, IndusInd Bank, ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank are the current low-entry lenders. Start there, but always check the fee and approval rules.

Wide spreads

Navi (9.90% to 45.00%), KreditBee (16.00% to 48.00%), MoneyView (15.96% to 39.99%), Bajaj Finserv (11.00% to 35.00%) all have large spreads between teaser rates and top-end pricing. That usually means the final offer can move a lot based on profile.

Best use case

Use this page to compare lenders before you apply. Then move to the rate checker or side-by-side comparison to test your own offer.

Transparency rule

We treat processing fees, high-end rate jumps and hidden cost patterns as part of the loan price. A low headline rate is not enough.

Watchdog note: the lenders with the widest pricing ranges need the most scrutiny. If your offer sits near the top end of a range, the loan may be materially more expensive than the headline rate suggests.

Frequently asked questions

What is a fair personal loan rate in India?

For a strong salaried profile, rates around 10.5%โ€“14% p.a. are usually the fair zone. Once you move above 18%, the loan is expensive unless there is a very unusual reason.

Are starting rates the same for everyone?

No. Starting rates are usually marketing rates. Your final offer depends on CIBIL score, income, employer type, salary account relationship, loan amount, and tenure.

Should I look only at interest rate?

No. Processing fee, foreclosure terms, GST on fees, and whether the rate can jump later all change the real cost. That's why this page includes fees and full ranges.

Which lenders look most aggressive?

The widest spreads on this page are Navi (9.90% to 45.00%), KreditBee (16.00% to 48.00%), MoneyView (15.96% to 39.99%), Bajaj Finserv (11.00% to 35.00%). Low starting rates can still become expensive if your profile is not ideal.
