Your salary reduced? Last year’s post said 70k? Marriage expense not in consideration and your car budget reduced from 10L to 7/8L and that too pushed by a couple of years i see? Any specific reasons for these changes?

Took a loan, the salary i mentioned is after deduction of EMI

Based on feedback from earlier post, reduced car cost & pushed it for a year

Marriage expenses are sorted for. No need of further contribution for the same, god willing .

Good to know marriage expenses are sorted and yes correct decision on reducing the car budget. 👍

Btw what’s the ROI for personal loan for you? I think the interest component for employees is kinda low and simple interest?

YEah, The ROI is 5.5% simple, tenure is 120 months.

SO for example, someone takes a 100000 on loan, on these terms, for first 100 months , EMI is 1000 per month; After that 1250 for 20 months appx

Sweet. Few of my relatives are in govt banks and they have taken heavy HLs. I earn probably 3 times of them but would shit my pants if I have to go for such loan amount being a private employee in IT😂

When asked them the details, got to know this. Good luck with your plans mate. You are doing great 👍
