education-loans

Today there is a significient announcement related to the education loans by the government. Financially poor students can take the education loans without paying the interest till moratorium period. Here moratorium period is 6 months after completing the course or when the student get the job, Which ever is happening first will be trigger the loan repayment process. The existing system allows students to pay only the interest till the repayment of loan starts.

Update:

This scheme is become operational. And it is effective from 2009-10.

The new announcement by center says Students from families with earning less than Rs 4.5 lakh per annum will be eligible for this scheme. Only those enrolled in recognized professional courses can avail of this scheme. This would include education institutes established by Act of Parliament, institutes recognized by relevant statutory bodies, IIMs and other institutions set up by the central government. The actual interest will be paid by the government to the bankers. It is really good initiative by the govt. to help the poor students.

The scheme will be applicable from the academic year 2009-2010. The implementation and monitoring of the scheme will be finalized in consultation with Canara Bank. The prime minister had announced the scheme in his Independence Day address.

Top 5 Points to consider for Interest Free Education Loans

This subsidy loans will be available for all the technical and professional courses in India. If you are doing any courses outside Indian, this scheme will not be applicable.
Courses done after class XII in institutions established by Acts of Parliament, recognized by statutory bodies, IIMs and other central government institutions.
The existing education loans will be linked to this scheme.
This scheme will be available only once for a student. For example if you have used this scheme for under graduate studies, then you cannot apply again for the post graduate. But, it is applicable if you are doing the combined UG and PG courses.
This scheme won’t be available if you discontinue your course in the middle except if there is any medical problems.

Update:

This scheme is become operational. And it is effective from 2009-10.

Summary

Will this scheme really benefitted by the poor students? Please post your thoughts. As every one aware, few months ago the same govt. announced Rs.60000 crore agriculture loans will be canceled to help the poor farmers. What really happened is only rich farmer benefited by the scheme and it is one of the worst move by the govt. Announcing various schemes are not important, they way how they are implementing the plans and how far it is reaching the needy is to be considered. Let’s wait and watch.

And secondly, my Sister has taken education loan for her engg degree in India of 5 lac rupees period 2007. Does she also eligible for this interest free loan?

in advance, Thank you for answering

Hello Anand,

Thank you for the comments. As I mentioned in this article, any authorised degree in India is eligible for this education loan. Important condition is your family income must be below Rs.4.5 lacs per annum.

If you have taken the loan prior to 2009, then also this scheme is available. Your existing loan will be linked to this scheme.

Hello Sir, I am Seetaram Bhat,Murdeshwar Uttar kannada. I applied education loan for BE to my daughter who is studying in Bangalore.The Manager of the concerned bank agreed to sanctioned the loan because my income is 100000/-. But he says that I have to pay interest every month. I told him about interest free scheme by goverment. But he didnot agree. How can I convence him? If I pay the interest monthly may it refund in future? Please guide me.

Hello Seetaram Bhat,

There won’t be any refund once you paid the interest. It seems still the circular not been sent to the banks. It is too bad why this govt. not making the good schemes work properly.

Sir,

I would like to know how this interest free education loan will be availed, because there is no circular is being released by the RBI for the banks till date. Therefore the banks are unable to give this facility to their customer. Please let me know how I could avail this facility on the education loan I have taken for my both daughters one for MBA and other for B.Tech.

October 15th, 2009 at 4:57 am

Hello Ravinder,

You are correct. They are delaying sending the circulars or any political drama . I don’t know why this much time to implement a good plan.

Hi! I am taken education loan for MCA degree. Its for the first time i had taken it. My family income is less than 4.5lakh. How would i take the benefit of loan subsidy? What procedure i would have to follow for this scheme?

October 23rd, 2009 at 11:16 pm
Suv said:

Hi Krishnas,
You have harped upon a very good point. I highly appreciate your effort. But I have a doubt. The education loan has two parts – 1)The interest till mortarium period like 2 years in my case for a loan taken to pursue MBA, on which interest is charged at Simple Interest 2)The interest charged on the amount outstanding like in my case for 7 years charged at compounding interest. Has the Government announced waiver of both these interests or only waiver of the first interest mentioned above?

October 26th, 2009 at 9:07 am
krishnas said:

Hello Suv,

The interest charged on mortarium period will be waived off. After that you have to pay the interest amount and principal back to the banker. ALso it is not yet confirmed that banks received the circular from the RBI stating the same scheme. Many people reported that still many bankers not aware of the scheme because they did not get any notice from RBI.

Thanks,
Krishna

Now I want some clarification recording under following doubts.

Hello Sarathi,

There is no free interest in your case. The interest free loans are announced recently and not yet widely implemented. You cannot claim the interest paid earlier.

Still my Loan is pending payment and outstanding amount is continue.I think my outstanding loan is also eligible for avail Interest Free for the past unpaid interest period. Yet the Proper circular has not issued by R.B.I. we are waiting for the circular.

krishnas said:

Hello Sarathi,

You are correct. You will be able to use this scheme for existing loans. What I said is you cannot claim the already paid interest money. But, I am not sure whether this scheme is started in the Banks. Please check with the bank and let us know if they are implementing this scheme. I heard that there is no circular from RBI to the banks.

I am from Minority Community (Christian) I have taken educational loan 15 lakhs from Union Bank of India on 8th December, 2008 with 12% interest for Commercial Pilot Licence Training at Australia. Since I am paid interest for the financial year 2009-2010 is Rs. 1.57 lakhs. I have not received any information or notification from the Govt.Of India regarding free interest on Education Loan. Recently, I have seen from the Vijay TV Programme on Sunday the 19th December, 2009, one of the Parliament Member and Lawyer of Supreme Court assured that the Free Interest on Education Loan will be implemented by the Govt. of India very soon. I request you to kindly inform through my e mail id when the Govt.of India will be implemented on Free Interest on Education Loan. Can I get interest free education loan or not . I have paid interest which has to be adjusted for installments starting from July 2010 i.e. Rs.28,000/p.m. Please send me notification and as well as inform Union Bank of India to get interest free loan sanctioned to me.

Keep inform me on email: tereza_souz@rediffmail.com

my dads annual income is below 4.5 lacs. I’ve done my mech. engineering and want join maritime course. This is a well recognized course which is approved by the directorate general of India & the course fees would hopefully be less than 7 lacs. I just want to know about the interest free education loan. I’ve read some terms and conditions saying that i would have to returned the loaned amount as i got the job or after 6 months of completion of my course which ever is earlier. Thats fine… but
1) Will i have to pay any primary interest (i dont know the meaning of primary interest. Got to know from my friend) during the studying days.
2) Will i have to pay any kind of interest on the latter days (days after getting job)
3) what is the exact procedure to get this scheme?
4) In which bank should i go to get the info???
5) Is it the scheme sponsored by Indian govt.?
6)can you mail me the entire schedule of these whole scheme????
THANKS……

Hi Krishna,

Family income in the sense, who and all earning in the family(sum of all their salaries) right?

If YES, after started paying this interest (I took loan in 2004), I got a job in 2009 and before 6 months (2010-jan) my brother got a job.

So, now my family salary is increased.
But from the time I took the education loan, I am paying this interest (that time my family salary is less).

So, am I eligible for this scheme or not?

Thanks in advance.

Hi all
Today only I visited to one of Branch Manager of SBI in Pune. I am without any surprise I got a reply from manager stating that “This scheme is not with us. We do not give any interest free education loan. If you wish you can take loan from RBI”
I found him rude in reply.

This is all about the truth . I was very happy to read about this news but the ground realties are far different . Don’t know when this system is going to change…………… Bless India.

Regards/Pooja Kulkarni.
