A personal loan does not require any collateral or security and can be obtained with minimal documentation. Just like most loans, however, they must be repaid in monthly installments.

You can use it to fund any expense including education, a wedding, a trip, home renovation, medical expenses, and even to buy a gadget. You can even use the money to help out with the day-to-day expenses in case of a cash flow crunch.

HDFC Bank offers a Personal Loan to pre-approved customers in just 10 seconds. For others, it usually takes about 4 hours. As an already existing customer, you can apply via NetBanking on the HDFC Bank website, through an ATM or Loan Assist App. Otherwise; you can drop by the nearest branch to get the process started.

You can get a re-payment tenure that suits your needs. And then you have to make the payments in equated monthly installments or EMI. This installment amount is calculated using the loan amount, the payment tenure, and the interest rate.
