The right amount of research, in the beginning, can help ensure a seamless loan process.

With no restrictions on the end-use of the money, you can use it for your personal as well as business requirements without worry.

Eligibility Criteria for a Gold Loan

A gold loan ensures great value for your gold, which otherwise may have been sitting idle in a locker somewhere. A gold loan is offered against pledged gold and hence, the maximum amount that you are eligible to avail will depend on the value of the collateral offered. The weight and purity of the gold are important aspects for the calculation of the gold loan amount that you can get.

When it comes to gold loan eligibility calculation, factors like the age of the applicant, their employment status, credit history, or financial stability are not the main criteria for consideration. The gold loan is a special secured loan, the quantum of which depends on the collateral. If a person defaults on their interest payments, they are given four notices for payment, after which they are sent an auction notice and their gold is auctioned off. This way, lenders do not face a lot of risk and are even able to offer low interest rates for gold loans.

Gold Loan Eligibility Calculation

Eligibility calculation for a gold loan is solely based on the gold being pledged. You can use the Gold Loan Calculator available on the Muthoot Finance website, where according to the current gold rates, the value of your gold can be calculated per gram. The Gold Loan Calculator uses information like the weight of the gold, the type of gold, and the amount you require and provides an approximate value for your gold loan eligibility. You will also need to provide some basic details like your name and contact information for calculating eligibility.

If you want a more precise calculation of your gold loan eligibility, you will need to visit your nearest Muthoot Finance branch with the gold you want to pledge as collateral. The team at the branch will be able to perform an in-house evaluation of the gold, which will give you the exact weight, purity, and value of your gold.

The amount that you will be able to borrow against the gold will not be equal to the total value of the collateral. Subject to RBI guidelines for loan-to-value, the amount will be a little lower than the actual value of the pledge, in order to mitigate the risks faced by the lender.
