What is a personal loan account number?
A personal loan account number (LAN) is a unique identifier assigned to your loan the moment it's disbursed. It's how Bajaj Finance tracks your specific loan among its records, and it's what you'll need whenever you make a payment, check your balance, request a document, or raise a query. Every loan you hold, even if you have more than one with Bajaj Finance, gets its own distinct LAN.
How to check your personal loan account number with Bajaj Finance
You can find your LAN in a few simple ways, whether you prefer doing this online or in person:
| Method | How it works |
|---|---|
| SMS | Send 'LAN' from your registered mobile number to 227564444 |
| Customer portal or app | Log in to My Account or the Bajaj Finance app using your registered mobile number and OTP, then check your loan section |
| Loan statement | Open your latest statement in the app or your email, your LAN is printed on it |
| Branch visit | Visit your nearest Bajaj Finance branch with valid ID, and a representative will assist you |
The SMS and app methods are usually the fastest if you just need the number quickly, while a branch visit is useful if you'd rather speak to someone directly.
What if you don't have your loan statement or welcome kit handy?
If you can't immediately locate your statement or your original welcome kit, you're not stuck; a few other places likely have your LAN too:
- Check your email inbox for the loan approval or welcome email, since your LAN is usually included
- Search your bank statement for the loan disbursement or EMI debit entry, which often references the LAN in the transaction description
- Check any SMS alerts you've received about your loan, particularly the first one sent after disbursement
- If none of these work, the SMS ('LAN' to 227564444), the app, or a branch visit will still get you there directly
How you'll use your loan account number
Once you have your LAN, it comes up again and again in managing your loan:
- Making EMI payments: Especially useful if you're paying manually rather than through auto-debit
- Checking your balance and dues: Quote it to view your outstanding amount, due dates, or any overdue charges
- Requesting documents: Needed to retrieve your statement, foreclosure letter, interest certificate, or NOC
- Setting up auto-debit: Required when registering or updating a NACH mandate
- Contacting customer care: Speeds up verification whenever you call or raise a service request
- Applying for related services: Such as part-prepayment, foreclosure, or a tenure change
Documents you might need to retrieve your LAN
If you're verifying your identity to retrieve your LAN, whether by phone, branch visit, or online, having these ready helps the process go smoothly:
- A valid ID proof, such as Aadhaar, PAN, passport, or driving licence
- Your registered mobile number
- Basic personal details, such as your full name and date of birth, for identity verification
Keeping your LAN safe
Your LAN isn't as sensitive as a password or OTP, but it's still worth handling carefully, since it identifies your loan account:
- Share it only with Bajaj Finance or when genuinely required, not with unsolicited callers or messages
- Avoid posting it anywhere public, including on social media or in unsecured notes
- If you store it digitally, keep it somewhere secure rather than in an easily accessible file
- Update your own records if your loan is ever restructured or refinanced, since this can sometimes change the LAN

Frequently Asked Questions
Loan Account Number
Loan Account Management
What is a personal Loan Account Number (LAN)?
A LAN is a unique identifier assigned to your loan when it's disbursed. It's used for all loan-related activity, including payments, checking your balance, downloading documents, and raising queries with Bajaj Finance.
How do I find my LAN if I've lost my loan statement?
Check your email for the original loan approval message, look for your loan disbursement entry on your bank statement, or simply send 'LAN' from your registered mobile number to 227564444 to receive it directly.
Can I retrieve my LAN without visiting a branch?
Yes, the quickest options are sending an SMS with 'LAN' to 227564444, or logging in to My Account or the Bajaj Finance app, where your LAN is displayed against your loan details.
Do I need my LAN to pay my EMI?
If you're paying manually, having your LAN on hand helps ensure the payment is applied to the correct loan account. If your EMI is on auto-debit through a NACH mandate, you won't need to enter it each time.
Is it safe to share my LAN with someone else?
Only share your LAN with Bajaj Finance directly or when genuinely required for a loan-related process. Avoid sharing it with unsolicited callers or posting it publicly, since it identifies your specific loan account.
Is a loan account a bank account?
No, a loan account is not a bank account. A loan account specifically tracks loan-related activities such as repayment, balance, and interest. In contrast, a bank account holds your funds for deposits, withdrawals, and other transactions. A loan account exists only to monitor the status and transactions related to a loan.
