In Summary

Personal loan disbursal is the stage at which the approved loan amount is transferred to your bank account.


  • Your application is assessed against the applicable eligibility criteria.
  • A Term Loan involves a single disbursement of the sanctioned amount.
  • Flexi variants allow you to withdraw funds from the sanctioned limit as required.
  • The approved loan amount can be transferred to your bank account within 24 hours* of approval, subject to applicable terms and conditions.
  • You receive confirmation of disbursal through email.
  • You also receive the loan agreement and details of the applicable interest rate, tenure and repayment schedule.

Approval and disbursal are separate stages. The money reaches your account after the required formalities are completed.
