Most credit cards offer two types of loan options to card holders

Loan Against the available Credit Card Limit and Loan Above Credit Card Limit.

Let’s assume a card holder has a card with 1 Lakh limit and is being offered loan under both cases.

In case the user avails option 1 and takes a loan of 1 Lakh let’s assume for 12 months. So does that mean his credit utilization for the card is 100%? That means cibil will take it as a negative even with timely repayment?

In case the user avails option 2 and since it’s a pre approved sort of offer does that show up as another loan in cibil or is combined under the CC account?

From a cibil point of view which of the options are better?

btw is a new hard enquiry done/shows up on cibil ?
 
I took both types of loans few months ago.
1) Loan within credit limit - Reflects as total outstanding. Greatly affects cibil score. Utilization ratio goes up as outstanding goes up. I got offer of 13% on reducing basis from SBI. Took 1L for home renovation. Preclosed after 3 months.
2) Loan outside credit limit - No presence in cibil. I got offer of 12.5 % on reducing basis from ICICI. On call they reduced additional 1% with 0 processing fees. Took 3L. Used some money to close SBI loan and remaining amount for home renovation. Still 7 months remaining for this to get completed.
Got a call from icici for loan against credit card within limit 2.63L 3yr tenure. She promised to provide at roi 11% and 1% processing fee. Is worth taking it ? Need for some personal reasons.

Processing fee can be made 0% too, negotiate with them. I think for higher amounts like 4-5lac they would waive off the processing fee completely. I hope 11% is the reducing rate of interest here. Also, there is a 15 day cancellation period without any charges, so pls confirm that, if your needs suffice within 15 days, then its a boon

Pre-approved Loans (No Documents asked, Loan disbursal in account within 24-48 hours )

Personal Loan on Bank app= Principal + Interest (No GST on Interest) + Processing fee with GST

Personal Loan on Credit Card (WTL - Within The Limit) = Principal + Interest with GST(18%)+ Processing Fee(0-3%) with GST(18%) (Block that much Credit Limit, loan amount within the card limit )

Personal Loan on Credit Card (OTL- Over The Limit)=Principal + Interest with GST(18%)+ Processing Fee(0-3%) with GST(18%) (No Effect on Credit Limit, loan amount can be above the card limit)

*Loan Foreclosure fee(2-3% of Outstanding Principal ) may be apply on all types of loan depending upon bank.

*ROI (Rate Of Interest) will be on Reducing Basic mostly (but please confirm before taking loan whether it will be Reducing or Flat, sometime they mis-sell by telling you flat rate 11% which will becomes 19.57% in Reducing )

Mis-selling will be when the agent says the ROI is 11% reducing but it turns out to be 11% flat in actual, not the other way round which you described. The reducing rate of 11% for the OP's scenario is similar to a flat interest of 7% (inclusing gst component) in this case.

I have availed with reducing interest rate. Everymonth the principal amount is increasing as interest is decreasing. This is called reducing roi. Am I correct?
