Factors Affecting Gold Loan Interest Rates

Numerous factors can affect the loan against gold interest rate in India. Some of them are influenced by personal factors relating to the borrower, while others are external relating to the current economy and the domestic gold prices:

‌
Loan Amount

The loan amount plays a critical role in determining the best gold loan interest rate.

‌
Monthly Income

Although gold loan borrowers don’t face many difficulties in getting a gold loan approved from the lender, they may require knowledge of your monthly income during the loan application process. The monthly income amount defines the repayment capacity of the borrower.

‌
Benchmarking

Lenders follow two types of benchmarking methods to determine the loan against gold interest rate: Repo rate-linked lending rate, and MCLR-linked lending rate. The interest rate on a gold loan varies from one lender to another, depending on the chosen benchmarking method. Generally, MCLR-linked lending rates result in a gold loan lowest interest rate offered by lenders.

‌
Credit Score

Although gold loans do not factor in the credit score of the borrower for eligibility criteria, the credit score can still affect the interest rate on the gold loan for a borrower. If the borrower has defaulted multiple times on interest payments before and has a bad credit score, it is a possibility that the lender will offer the gold loan at a higher interest rate.

‌
Gold Value

One of the most important factors that influence the loan against the gold interest rate is the value of the pledged gold. Every borrower has to pledge gold articles to the lender, and they offer a percentage of the total value of the gold articles as the loan amount.

‌
Repayment Frequency

The interest repayment frequency on your loan amount also alters rate of interest.
