| How To Close Personal Loan In Kotak Mahindra Bank |
Step 1: Accepting Your Fate (and Calling the Bank)
Okay, maybe "accepting your fate" is a bit dramatic. But you do need to inform Kotak Mahindra Bank of your desire to close the loan. Here's the fun part: you get to choose your weapon of choice!
Reminder: Revisit older posts — they stay useful.
- Channel your inner James Bond and call them: Dial their helpline number (1860 266 2666) and speak to a customer service representative. Be warned, they might not have a cool gadget to disarm the loan, but they'll definitely guide you through the process.
- Tap into your inner superhero and visit your nearest branch: Find your nearest Kotak Retail Assets branch and prepare to vanquish any loan-related confusion with the help of a friendly branch representative.
Remember: This initial contact is crucial, as it triggers a three-day notice period. So, grab a coffee, channel your inner zen master, and wait patiently.
Step 2: The Foreclosure Statement: Your Loan Report Card
Once the notice period is over, Kotak Mahindra Bank will issue you a foreclosure statement. This document, essentially your loan report card, details the outstanding loan amount and any applicable preclosure charges.
QuickTip: Focus on what feels most relevant.
Here's a heads-up: Kotak Mahindra Bank charges a preclosure fee. But fret not, brave warrior! The fee depends on the duration of your loan. Up to three years, it's 4% + GST on the outstanding principal. After three years, it reduces to a more manageable 2% + GST.

Step 3: The Final Showdown: Payment Time!
Now comes the moment of truth: paying off the remaining loan amount. You have two options, both equally heroic:
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.
- Become a digital warrior and use NEFT/RTGS: This online method is fast, efficient, and lets you conquer the loan from the comfort of your couch.
- Embrace your inner knight and visit the branch: Head to your nearest branch, armed with a cheque or demand draft made payable to Kotak Mahindra Bank. Remember, submit the payment at least seven working days before your next EMI due date.
Step 4: Claiming Your Victory Spoils: The No Due Certificate
Once the bank confirms your payment and processes the closure, you'll receive the No Due Certificate (NDC). This golden ticket signifies your freedom from loan-related burdens!
Pro-tip: Keep this certificate safe, as it might be your holy grail for future loan applications.
Tip: Don’t overthink — just keep reading.
And They Lived Happily Ever After... (Except for Maybe Your Wallet)
Congratulations! You've successfully closed your Kotak Mahindra Bank personal loan. Now, go forth and celebrate your financial victory! Just remember, while the loan monster is slain, your wallet might still feel a little tender. But hey, at least you're the hero of your own financial story, and that's something to be proud of!
