Reasons and tips for taking personal loan

Consolidating Credit Card Debt

Credit cards can often push individuals to spend more than what they can afford with their monthly salaries, as the luxury of ‘spend now, pay later’ is often too hard to resist. However, credit card outstanding can put cardholder into adversity, if the credit card debt is not managed properly. This is because the credit cards carry very high-interest rates, and hence, outstanding amounts can magnify quickly due to interest burden. Taking a personal loan to consolidate credit card debt by paying off outstanding amounts on different credit cards can help one rectify earlier financial mistakes and approach the debt systematically.

Making Tax Saving Investments at year-end

Section 80C of the Income Tax Act 1961 allows a tax deduction of up to Rs. 1.5 lakh from the total income during a year for making certain tax-saving payments and investments. If approached systematically, one can make investments of around Rs. 12,500 per month and avail the tax benefit in entirety. However, many taxpayers tend to delay their tax saving plans till the year-end, which puts a lot of strain on the finances during the last couple of months of the financial year. So, while one can resolve to make regular investments from next year onwards, taking a personal loan to make tax-saving investments can be a prudent option, as the immediate tax savings can compensate the taxpayer for the interest expenses.

Creating/Improving Credit History

Credit history reflects the pattern of an individual’s credit habits and is built when one takes a loan/credit card. When one has just started their career, no history of loans or credit cards will lead to no credit history and, consequently, no CIBIL score. This can be a tricky issue at a later stage when one is in need of debt for any reason, including home loan, car loan, etc. When a bank processes a loan/ credit card application, credit score often defines one’s eligibility towards such a loan. Thus, this can emerge as a vicious cycle, wherein no loan leads to no credit history, while a credit history can be created only through an existing loan. However, personal loans can be availed from the banks and financial institutions based on the recurring monthly income, e.g., salary, etc. Taking a personal loan for a shorter tenure and repaying it in time can help one create a good CIBIL score.
