About Loans Against FD

What is a Loan Against FD for NRIs?

A Loan against a Fixed Deposit (FD) allows Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) to borrow funds using their NRO, NRE, or FCNR Fixed Deposits as collateral. This facility enables NRIs to secure a loan of up to 90% of their deposit value on NRE/NRO Deposits and up to 85% of their deposit value on FCNR deposits (applicable for select currencies) with a maximum capping of ₹ 5 crore. It enables NRIs to meet short-term financial needs without breaking their FDs.

Loan Disbursement Process

The Loan Against an FD will be provided by creating a New NRO account for the customer, and the customer can utilise those funds within India up to the approved limit. This ensures convenient access to funds based on financial needs and preferences.

Repayment Process for the Loan

Borrowers can repay through Direct remittances, existing NRO account or FD adjustment. These multiple repayment methods provide convenience and ease of managing the loan without affecting financial stability.
