What is an
Education Loan?


An education loan is designed to support students in pursuing higher education in India or abroad. It covers tuition fees, accommodation expenses, exam and library fees, travel costs, and other academic expenses. These personal loans typically offer flexible repayment options, moratorium periods until course completion, and tax benefits on interest paid under Section 80E of the Income Tax Act. Students can apply with a co-borrower, such as a parent or guardian, ensuring financial security for lenders. Interest rates vary based on factors like the applicant’s academic record, institution ranking, and loan amount.
