What are the features and benefits of personal loan for medical expenses?

The loan is built around three different structures, a wide amount band, and disbursal within a day of verification.


  1. Three loan types  — Choose between a Term Loan, a Flexi Dropline Loan, and a Flexi Hybrid Loan based on how predictable your treatment costs are. With the Flexi variants, you get a dropline limit and can withdraw funds as and when you need them - paying interest only on the amount withdrawn.
  2. Money in your account within 24 hours* — The loan amount reaches your bank account within 24 hours* of approval, making this ideal to manage emergencies and urgent expenses.
  3. Loan amount of Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 55 lakh — The wide amount band can cover a single diagnostic package as well as a multi-stage surgical procedure.
  4. Tenure ranging from 12 months to 108 months — A longer tenure lowers the monthly EMI, though it raises the total interest you pay.
  5. Online application and approval — Complete the personal loan application online without a branch visit.
  6. No part-prepayment charge on Flexi Loans — Part-prepayment charges do not apply to the Flexi Dropline Loan or the Flexi Hybrid Loan.
