What is No Cost EMI?

No-cost EMI means that if you purchase an item on credit, you are required to pay no additional interest on the principal. As a result, you end up paying only the actual price of the product in easy EMIs at no added cost whatsoever. To understand what no-cost EMI means, let us look at an example.

Say, you purchase a footwear worth ₹9,000 and wish to pay back the amount over a period of three months. If you avail the no-cost EMI functionality, you will need to pay only ₹3,000/month (₹9,000 divided by 3 months+ one time processing fees). Essentially, this means that no interest charges will be levied on the borrowed sum.

1. How Does No-Cost EMI Work?

• Unlike regular EMI, no-cost EMI does not come with an interest factor. So, if you borrow ₹9,000 on your card to buy an item, you repay only ₹9,000. This is irrespective of whether you go for a 3-month, or 6-month repayment tenor.

• For example, if you opt to buy a footwear on no-cost EMI, you will need to select the ‘No-Cost EMI’ option at the payment gateway along with the payment (credit card or debit card) details, and the repayment tenor. Once you authenticate the payment, only the exact cost of the product would be deducted from your card. From the next month onwards, when you start paying the EMI for the purchase, you would not incur any additional interest charges on the amount borrowed. Note- Only 1 time processing fees will be charge by bank in first EMI.

2. What are the Advantages of No Cost EMI?

• From your next billing cycle, you will be charged the EMI amount and your credit limit will be reduced by the outstanding amount. For example, if you have made a three-month EMI purchase of RS 10,000 and your credit limit is RS 1,00,000, then your bank will block your credit limit by RS 10,000 and thus your available credit limit after the purchase will only be RS 90,000. As and when you pay your EMI every month, your credit limit will be released accordingly. For any further queries, please contact your bank.
