What does a zero processing fee personal loan mean for you?

 

zero-processing-fee-personal-loan

A zero processing fee means your full approved loan amount reaches your bank account. Many lenders deduct a processing fee of up to 2% to 3.5% of the loan amount, plus 18% GST on the fee, so you receive less than you were approved for.

Here's how it looks on an approved loan of ₹5 lakh:
