Smart Loan Against Property

There are no prepayment charges for a Smart LAP loan.

Processing fees: A total of 1% of the loan amount sanctioned or INR10,000, whichever is higher, will be applicable as processing fee (plus applicable taxes⁵). The fee is collected in two parts: INR5,000 + applicable taxes⁵ is to be paid upfront along with the loan application and the balance processing fee amount applicable taxes⁵ is to be paid before disbursal of the loan. Processing fee paid is non-refundable.

Commitment fees: Up-to 1% fees on amount above 25% of the Smart Home loan with Commitment Fee/Smart LAP with commitment fee sanctioned amount. In the event if the Excess Funds in the Smart Home loan with commitment fee/Smart LAP with commitment fee account are more than 25% of the Smart Home loan with commitment fee/Smart LAP with commitment fee sanctioned amount (‘Threshold limit’), then the bank may at its sole discretion charge a Non-utilization/commitment fee of 1% p.a. on the balance amount maintained over and above the Threshold.

Example – If Non- utilization/Commitment fees is 1%, original sanctioned Smart loan amount is INR2,000,000 and limit defined as 25% i.e. INR500,000. In this scenario if the fund in the Smart Home loan with commitment fee/Smart LAP with commitment fee account is INR600,000, then the Non- utilization/commitment fees of 1% will be charged on INR100,000. (This is for illustration purpose only) 

Conversion fees: INR 5,000 + applicable taxes are payable at the time of converting the loan from Normal to Smart, Smart to Normal or within different variants of Smart loan.

Note: For processing prepayment requests, customers are required to send HSBC a written instruction communicating their desire to prepay with their intent of wanting to reduce the loan tenure or EMI. In case no clear instruction is received to reduce loan tenure or EMI, we will by default reduce the loan tenure basis the prepayment amount received. In case excess funds/amounts are received towards the loan account without any written instructions from the customer to prepay, the amount will be credited to the Smart Home account and will impact the available balance in the account.
