All You Need to Know About Two Wheeler Loans

Posted on Wednesday, July 15th, 2020 | By IndusInd Bank

Two wheelers are great for manoeuvring through congested city streets. If you have your eyes set on a scooter or motorcycle but do not wish to spend all your savings buying it, choose a two wheeler loan.

Why Take a Two-Wheeler Loan

Two wheeler loans offered by banks and financial institutions are an effective way to finance your purchase without spending a fortune. Since you only have to pay fixed Equated Monthly Installments (EMI) to the lender, most of your cash will be free for personal use.

Benefits of a Two Wheeler Loan

Most two-wheeler loans are easy to repay and can boost your creditworthiness if you are a first-time borrower. A good credit score comes in handy when looking for bigger loans in the future. Since you have to pay EMIs on your two-wheeler loan, you will also learn to manage your finances effectively. Moreover, if you are timely with your repayments, this will further boost your credit score. Budgetary concerns may keep you from buying a two-wheeler of your choice. With a two wheeler loan however, you are easily able to afford the vehicle of your choice without having to worry about the finances.

Basic Covenants You Should Know

  1. To apply for a two-wheeler loan, you need the following documents:
    • Proof of Identity (AADHAR card, Passport, PAN Card etc.)
    • Proof of Address (Utility bills, AADHAR card, Passport etc.)
    • Income Proof or Proof of Business
    • Bank Account statements of the past 3-6 months.
    • Passport-sized photographs
    • Completed Paper/Online Loan Application
  2. Both salaried and self-employed individuals qualify for a two wheeler loan. Check your two wheeler loan eligibility for a loan with IndusInd Bank.
  3. Two wheeler loan interest rates depend on several factors like your income, age and chosen vehicle type and model. These vary from lender to lender. At IndusInd Bank, we offer attractive interest rates on our two-wheeler loans.
  4. Repayment tenures for most two wheeler loans are flexible and can be adjusted to suit your cash flow and income. Stay away from lenders who do not offer customised repayment tenures.
  5. Two wheeler loans do not require any collateral or security because your vehicle is hypothecated in the name of the lender until you repay the entire amount, and the interest and fees associated with the loan. In case you fail to repay, the lending institution can seize your vehicle.

How to Choose the Right Lender

Selecting an appropriatelender is extremely important for anyone who wants a hassle-free loan. Whilechoosing a lender, keep the following in mind:

  • Choose a lender that offers competitive interest rates.
