LOANS & THE STORY BEHIND THE SCENES:
Every showroom has tie ups with atleast 4 - 5 banks/financing companies.
Interest rate for new cars is around 15%approx. What happens behind the scene?
ABC Bank Offer: (ABC - a reputed bank, let's discuss the name later)
Interest offered by the bank varies from 13.75% to 16.5% for used cars not aging more than 6yrs from the date of application. This interest rate is applicable only if you are applying through the dealership.
If the interest rate paid by the customer is 16% of the funding amount. (FUNDING AMOUNT = IDV Value)
The bank pays a one time commision of 1 to 1.75% of interest to the dealership. The rest 14% is the money the bank earns. In this the processing fee is not included. Here is a quick example.
ABC loan for a car (applied through the dealer)
Used Car selling price: 3,00,000INR
IDV value of the car (mentioned in the insurance paper): 1,80,000INR
MAXIMUM LOAN AMOUNT POSSIBLE = IDV Value = 180000INR
INTEREST RATE OF 16% per annum for 2years = 1.8lacs x 32% = 57600INR
COMMISION TO THE DEALER = 2% of only the first year = 3600INR
ACTUAL INTEREST THE BANK EARNS = 14% = 54000INR
ACTUAL AMOUNT THAT THE CUSTOMER PAYS BEFORE TAKING DELIVERY OF THE CAR is as below.
Down payment: 10000INR
Loan amount: Funding amount (180000) - processing fee (approx fee is 3000INR)
= 177000INR
final payment by customer = CAR PRICE - down payment - loan amount + processing fee
= 3,00,000 - 10,000 - 177000 + 3000
= 1,13,000INR
LOAN OFFER BY THE ABC bank, if you approach them directly at their branch.
INTEREST RATE: 14% if you work in a top corporate company, if not 15% max.
FUNDING WILL REMAIN SAME (IDV VALUE OF THE CAR). However in this case, you have to follow up with the bank for quick approval. You will have to book the car you are interested in, by paying a non refundable amount to the dealership & collect the SMART CARD COPY + INSURANCE COPY to the ABC bank executive. You will save easily 1% per annum on the interest.
FACTS:
1. Every auto loan executive has the capability to wave off atleast 50% processing fees.
2. Usually they do this only if the funding amount is big
3. Even if you dont have all the documents required for the loan eligibility, the executive will promise you loan approval & collect documents from you. This is done for two reasons - if the loan gets approved, he gets incentive, customer gets funding for his car & its a win win situation.
If the loan gets rejected, then the customer is disappointed, the executive is not given any incentive, but he is completing his target (minimum no:of logins per month is approx 5 per executive).
Booking amounts at the dealership will be non-refundable, never pay anything more than 10K as booking amount. DO NOT PAY REMAINING CASH BEFORE TAKING A TEST DRIVE OF THE CAR on the delivery date.
