Pre-Payment and Part Payment in Personal Loan

A personal loan is given for a stipulated time period. This period is known as the loan repayment tenure. After you have taken a loan, you are expected to pay the debt off by the end of the loan repayment tenure through EMIs. However, after availing a loan, if you decide to pay off your debt before the end of the loan repayment period, it is called pre-payment or foreclosure.

Types of Pre-Payment:

There are 2 types of pre-payment. They are full pre-payment and part pre-payment and part payment.

1. Full Pre-Payment:

If you are paying off the whole outstanding loan amount before the end of the loan repayment tenure, it is known as full pre-payment.

Advantages of full pre-payment:

You can avoid paying hefty interest on your loan amount.

If you have the money to pay off your debt completely, you might as well get rid of the debt.

You can avoid paying pre-payment interest as well, if you have taken the loan from a lender who does not charge an interest on pre-payment of the loan.

Disadvantages of Full Pre-Payment:

If your lender charges a penalty on pre-payment of the loan amount, you might have to pay a big chunk of money for pre-paying your loan.

Before you foreclose a loan, check the other factors related to it. Foreclosing a personal loan means that you would be paying out a huge sum of money at once. This might not always be the best option.

2. Part pre-payment:

If you are paying off a part of the outstanding loan amount before the end of the loan repayment tenure, it is known as part pre-payment.

Advantages of part pre-payment:

You can choose to pay off a part of your outstanding loan amount if you have some readily available money.

Part paying your loan will reduce the outstanding principal amount which, in turn, will reduce the effective EMI amount.

The overall interest that you pay will also reduce significantly.

Disadvantages of part pre-payment:

If you do not make the part payment soon enough, you will not be able to maximise your savings.

If your lender charges a fee for part payment of personal loans, you might have to spend a significant amount of money for the same.
