Pay Advance EMI in My Account: Step-by-Step Guide

For most loans, the instalment amount remains fixed over the repayment tenure. A set amount gets deducted from your bank account on a fixed date. If you have surplus funds at some point over the loan tenure, you may choose to pay off an EMI before the due date.

If advance payment is made 4 days before the due date of the ongoing month, your EMI will automatically get adjusted towards your instalment for the next month. This means that your EMI will not be deducted from your bank account next month.

You may choose the advance EMI option if you fear missing your due date, have issues with your bank account registration or any such instances. In fact, you can choose from several modes of payment to make an advance EMI. This will ensure that your EMI is paid ahead of time, and you avoid any penal charges applicable and any negative impact on your credit score in the case of missed EMIs.

With the service portal, you can pay one EMI in advance if you have opted for our Flexi Loan variant and up to five EMIs if you have chosen a regular term loan.

Note: Advance EMI cannot be treated as part-prepayment or foreclosure of the loan(s) irrespective of the loan variant availed or the amount paid by you and hence no interest is payable by BFL on the advance EMI or no interest benefit by treating advance EMI amount as part-payment will be given in the loan.

Making an advance EMI payment—either partially or fully—can have a positive effect on your credit score if managed responsibly. Timely or advance payments signal strong repayment behaviour, which credit bureaus view favourably. Partial advance payments help reduce the interest burden slightly and reflect financial discipline, though they don’t alter the overall loan tenure drastically. On the other hand, full advance payments, also known as foreclosure, directly close the loan account. This not only eliminates future EMIs but also improves the credit utilisation ratio, boosting the credit score in most cases.
Regarding loan tenure, a partial advance may allow for a minor rescheduling of the EMI timeline or reduction in monthly instalments, depending on lender policy. However, a full payment brings the tenure to an end immediately. While early closure is beneficial, it’s important to check foreclosure charges, as they can reduce the overall interest-saving benefit.
If you have surplus funds or have a fear of missing your monthly instalment due date, you can choose to pay your EMIs in advance. This payment option will help you avoid any penal charges applicable in the case of a missed EMI.

This is because your current month’s EMI is under presentation to your bank for the deduction. In case your upcoming EMI bounces, your advance payment can be adjusted towards your
