Personal Use Loan

Is it wise to a take personal loan to buy gold?

Is it wise to a take personal loan to buy gold?

The Indian obsession with gold is no surprise. And over time, people have turned to the precious yellow metal for investment. No wonder that up until 2012, many lenders even offered loans specifically for gold investments.

However, since RBI’s blanket ban on lending institutions in 2012, one cannot avail of gold loans in the traditional sense. What you can do instead is get a personal loanto buy gold from a reputed lender. But is it a wise decision? Well, let us take a look at the advantages of securing personal finance to buy gold.

• No need to provide a reason

You can easily get a personal loan from a lender without specifying a reason to your lender. So, whether you require funds for marriage, jewellery, education, travel, or even buying gold, you can easily secure them through this loan.

• No requirement of collateral

Loans for personal use are provided collateral-free. Naturally, you never have to give up your assets as collateral to get a loan.

• Easy to meet eligibility criteria

Though the personal loan eligibility criteria vary slightly from lender to lender, they are fairly easy to meet. Most lenders only require you to be an Indian national with a stable job and earn a minimum monthly income to apply. So, make sure you check the eligibility criteria carefully before applying.

• Minimal documentation

When you opt for personal finance, you don’t need to run around to get your documents in order either. The reason? Lenders require only a handful of documents, including your photo ID proof (like Aadhar Card or Voter ID), Income proof (bank statements, ITR filings), copy of salary slips, Address proof, etc., for verification.

• Flexible repayment options

Did you know you could pay off loans on your own terms? Yes, with personal finance, you can! Many lenders allow you to choose your repayment tenure, and some even offer structured repayment plans based on your credit handling capacity.

With this much flexibility, you can easily pay off a loan on your own terms without stressing out your finances in the process.

• Quick disbursals

Once your loan application is approved, the loan amount is disbursed straight to your bank account. What’s more, if you want to speed up the approval process, you can even get your loan application pre-approved!

Final word

Given these advantages, there’s no denying that if you’re looking for a financing option to purchase gold in any form, personal finance is the way to go. However, before you invest, remember the gold market is highly unpredictable, making short-term holding extremely risky. Hence, only use a loan to finance your gold purchase if you’re planning on holding them for a long time.
