The following factors can impact your latest personal loan interest rates.
Besides your CIBIL score, the lender also reviews your past credit record to determine your current personal loan interest rates. A clean credit history with no EMI defaults and disciplined payments is preferred.
Your income significantly determines your personal loan rates. If you belong to the high-income bracket, the lender perceives you as more likely to be stable and timely repay the loan and extends more competitive interest rates.
If you are servicing multiple loans and credit cards, and your debt burden eats up a significant portion of your monthly income, the lender can consider you a high-risk borrower. It can impact the personal loan interest rates you will qualify for.
In fixed rate loans, lenders charge you a constant personal loan rate throughout the tenure. Here, your total interest payable and EMIs remain fixed.
Floating or variable personal loan interest rates in India are susceptible to fluctuating economic conditions. Here, you can get low interest personal loans initially, but the lender can revise the rates as per the repo rate. Hence, your interest payable can vary throughout the tenure.
Fixed and floating rates both offer a different set of advantages. While fixed rates keep your EMIs constant, you may pay significantly lower instalments with floating-rate loans. But, if current personal loan interest rates increase suddenly, you run the risk of paying bigger EMIs in the future.

Floating or variable personal loan interest rates can change based on economic conditions. Initially, you may get a low-interest rate on your personal loan. However, because the repo rate influences floating rates, the lender can adjust the rates according to changes in the repo rate. As a result, the amount of interest you have to pay can vary during the entire loan repayment period.
On the other hand, with fixed-rate loans, lenders charge you a consistent interest rate for the entire loan duration. This means your total interest payment and EMIs remain the same throughout the loan tenure. Therefore, the repo rate does not have any impact on the interest rate of fixed-rate loans.
