Reserve Bank of India, has permitted the loan borrowers to avail the loan restructuring option. Here a question arises as to whether one should opt for loan restructuring or not and what are the consequences. The implications are:
- The delayed payment would mean extension of the loan period and thereby availing fresh loan would again get delayed.
- The Credit score would obviously get affected if the loan period is extended.
- Hence it is advocated that a loan restructuring option can be availed only if one fails to repay the EMIs due to a loss of job or income necessitated by the Covid-19 pandemic. The loan restructuring would also be associated with additional charges and involve more interest due to extended loan tenure.
