These unsecured loans cover a wide range of expenses conveniently and are extremely popular among borrowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To put some perspective, roughly 77% of working Indians manage their finances with the help of a personal loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wondering what makes them so popular? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#1 No collateral requirement<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can get a <a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/personal-loan.html\">personal loan<\/a> without putting up collateral. So, you don&#8217;t have to pledge valuable assets like a fixed deposit or shares. All you need is a good credit score and a minimum monthly salary to qualify for the loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#2 Simple loan eligibility criteria<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, financial institutions offer unsecured personal loans for unemployed<strong>, <\/strong>retired individuals, self-employed professionals, in addition to salaried professionals. In fact, anyone meeting their eligibility criteria can apply for the loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These typically include falling within the specified age bracket, earning a minimum specified salary\/pension, having a decent credit score, and so on. If you are falling short, you can also get a co-signer to meet the credit score requirement and apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#FF0000\"><strong>Additional Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/blog\/personal-loan\/a-complete-guide-to-secured-and-unsecured-personal-loans\/\">A Complete Guide to Secured and Unsecured Personal Loans<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#3 Minimal documentation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, <a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/personal-loan\/documents-required.html\">documents required<\/a> for a personal loan include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Photo ID proof<\/li><li>Income proof<\/li><li>Salary slips<\/li><li>Address proof<\/li><li>Employment certificate<\/li><li>KYC documents<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people already have these in place, thereby making the application process easier as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#4 Flexible Tenure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although personal loan tenures are typically short, extending to a maximum of five years, most lenders also allow you to choose the repayment tenure. This means you can select a tenure depending on your monthly obligations and repayment capacity. So, the repayment process isn&#8217;t burdensome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#5 Reduced loan cost<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Unsecured personal loan interest rates are usually affordable considering the loan tenure. Since repayment periods are usually short, people don\u2019t mind paying slightly higher EMIs if it means a reduction in the overall loan cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#6 Improves CIBIL score<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with helping you get instant funds, a personal loan also helps you diversify your credit lines. In fact, making timely EMI repayments can raise your CIBIL score over time. This increases your creditworthiness and opens doors for different types of loans, higher loan amounts, and even lower <a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/personal-loan\/rates-and-charges.html\">personal loan interest rates<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#FF0000\"><strong>Additional Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/blog\/personal-loan\/pros-and-cons-of-unsecured-personal-loan\/\">Pros and Cons of Unsecured Personal Loan<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>#7 Online application<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nowadays, many lenders offer personal loans online. Not only can you apply from the comfort of your home, but also at any time you prefer and any day of the week.
