Education loans enable students to pursue higher academic degrees at accredited domestic and international universities.
Key Features of Education Loans

- Moratorium Period: Repayment holiday during course duration plus a grace period (typically 6–12 months post completion).
- Financial Co-Borrower: A parent, guardian, or earning relative acts as a joint co-borrower.
Unsecured vs Secured Options
- Unsecured Student Credit: Available for premier merit-listed institutions based on course ranking and co-borrower income.
- Collateral-Backed Credit: Required for higher loan limits or non-listed overseas institutes.
Note: Moratorium guidelines and margin requirements depend on course classification and lender policy.
