What is advance EMI for a medical equipment loan?
Advance EMI refers to the upfront payment made by the borrower towards the medical equipment loan before the regular monthly payments start. This payment typically serves as a way to ease future repayments and may reduce the total loan burden. This arrangement is common when a borrower expects a larger sum of money upfront, such as when purchasing expensive medical devices or equipment. Lenders may offer an option to make this payment at the time of loan disbursement. By paying an advance EMI, you ensure that a portion of your loan is settled early, and it can help to lower the principal amount in subsequent repayments.How does advance EMI work in a medical equipment loan?
