months up to 3 years
4. Attractive Interest Rate – Starting at 9 percent
5. Both Existing and Non-Existing Customer can avail Gold Loan
Manish Kothari, President and Head, Commercial Banking, Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited said, "We are delighted to open 100 gold loan branches covering additional 49 cities during this financial year. Gold loans have emerged as one of the most preferred mode of availing finance to meet personal as well as business needs."
"Indians have idle gold and with gold prices soaring. Gold loans have become an attractive proposition. The demand is coming also from people moving away from unorganized sources of finance, such as pawnbrokers as well as moneylenders. This is due to greater awareness about risks associated with unregulated sources of finance offered by pawnbrokers, at relatively higher interest rates. We feel the trend will continue in the time to come as well."
