1. Types of Collateral that can be offered?

The Collateral should be any one of the following assists:

  • Moveable Collateral – Fixed Deposit
  • Immoveable Collateral – Flat, House, Bungalow, Land (Non-Agricultural), Shop, etc.

2. Why collateral is required when my co-borrower has a very good income?

Collateral is required to mitigate the risk involved in the credit. Since the student hasn't started to earn yet, we are not sure of his future income and profile, hence the collateral. In case you have any loan with HDFC Limited, it's an extremely simple process and can be fulfilled by our dedicated Relationship Managers It's in the interest of the students and parents to provide the required collateral as that enables the students to get better interest rates on education loan.


3. What if a student has no support system or surety?

As explained earlier, we do give weightage to the student's past academic track record, entrance test scores, future school/institute/university's reputation and employability.
