For 3 months RBI has allowed banks to defer house, car, and other loans to EMI. On this suggestion, private, governmental banks and non-bank financial services, or NBFC's, can take decisions. Home loan lending firms or lenders will also be able to offer convenience for consumers. The RBI extended the term loan moratorium and also changed the conditions of repayment (interest payments) to avoid a borrowers cash-squeeze.
What does moratorium mean?
Moratorium means a vacation for payment. This means that no payment will be made by the consumer to the lending institution during the moratorium phase. The interest accrued for the moratorium period is due after the conclusion of the moratorium phase. Therefore, it's like payment deferment.
