1. Introduction

Education is the foundation on which strong and robust countries are built. For developing
economies like India it is the key ingredient that will help move the country to a developed
country. This makes Education an important element in the nation building and requires
all possible support.

The demography of the country and the growth opportunity it offers is steadily
increasing the number of aspiring students for education. The scope of education has
widened both in India and abroad covering new courses in diversified areas. One of the
key support element for a good education is the access to finance. The Bank with its
vast resource and reach and more importantly with its social outlook has a key role in
fulfilling this requirement.

Bank’s endeavor is to identify meritorious students who have both will and potential to
learn and achieve heights in future and support those deserving students who are in need
of finance. This will not only be a contribution for a greater cause in the society but will
also provide the bank the next set of successful customers.

In this process Bank has made various effort to support the deserving students. The
product and process are streamlined to the extent that we become the bank of choice
for the students. Care has been taken that this initiative not only supports students but
also help the Bank acquire the right set of customers. Education Loan continues to be
one of the key priority areas of the Bank. The schemes of the Bank are designed in line
with the priority for Education accorded by the Government.

Education Loan Schemes of the Bank are broadly based on the Model Education Loan
Scheme and Model Skill Loan Scheme of IBA. Bank offers distinct education loan

to the permanent residence of parent/at the place of posting/service of the
parents (to be referred as Branch B hereafter) or at a place of posting of

 Such transfer of accounts should be done during the period, of


completion/discontinuation of study and starting of repayment. An application in
this regard must be obtained at the time of sanction itself. (Refer Annexure 21)

 Parents (who are standing as co-applicant) must have a KYC compliant SB Account
at the time of sanction of loan, with Branch B. If the Parents (who are standing

Branch B after following all extant guidelines for A/c opening.

 Before transferring such accounts, Branch A will have to ensure that all Loan
Documents including LAD, are in order, Tracking Check List is duly filled and the

Security Document (wherever applicable) will be retained at the Branch A, where

transferred to a Branch where he/she is relocated. An application in this regard

Realisable Market Value of Property is to be taken as the value of property.

 In case of properties acquired within last -3- years, amount of Registered


Sale Deed or the Realisable Value whichever is lower should be taken as value
of property.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 81
 If the present Realisable value is higher than the Registered value
(Registered within last 3 years) and if it requires to consider present
Realisable value as value of property, for any reason, prior permission from
Regional Authority to be obtained for the same.

 In case of other collateral securities like Govt. securities / Public Sector


Bonds / Units of UTI, NSC, KVP, Insurance policy, gold, shares / debentures,
Bank Deposit, Relief Bonds, etc., the surrender value (in case of Insurance
Policy) /Outstanding amount (in case of Bank Deposit), face value (in case of
NSC, KVP, Govt Securities, Bonds etc) as the case may be accepted as the
value of collateral security.

(e) Margin on Collateral Securities

In cases of Educational Loans of above Rs. 7.50 lacs collateral security equivalent
to 100 % of the loan amount and co-obligation of parents/ guardian/ third party
along with the assignment of future income of the student for payment of
installment is required to be obtained.

Hence, it will be in order if branches obtain collateral security equivalent to 100%


of loan amount without keeping any margin. However in case of securities like
Govt. securities / Public Sector Bonds / Units of UTI, NSC, KVP, LIC policy,
gold, shares / debentures, Bank Deposit, Relief Bonds etc suitable margin as
per extant guidelines to be obtained.

(f) With a view to arrest frauds/ check multiple finances from different Bank, the
branches are advised to access Consumer Credit Information of CIBIL invariably
and record the fact in appraisal note. The branches may put a remark on admission
letter about loan availed from our Bank, wherever possible and must make discreet
enquiries about the student, course and institution offering the course to check any
attempts of frauds.

(g) In case of receipt of application for more than one loan for student borrower from
a family, the loan is to be considered individual wise. That means any number of
applicants belonging to the same family may be sanctioned loans up to Rs. 4.00 Lacs
individually without insisting for collateral security.

(h) Existence of an earlier Education Loan to the brother(s) and /or sister(s) will not
affect the eligibility of another meritorious student from the same family obtaining
education loan from the Bank.

(i) There is no specific restriction with regard to the age of the student to be eligible
for education loan. However, if the student was a minor while the parent executed

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 82
documents for the loan, the Branch should obtain fresh documents from him/her
upon attaining majority.

(j) Banks may consider top up loans to students pursuing further studies within the
overall eligibility limit, if such further studies are commenced during the
moratorium period of the first loan. The repayment of the loan will commence after
the completion of the second course and further moratorium period, as provided
under the scheme.
(k) Sometimes, a student may discontinue course or college / institution may dismiss
the student on account of violation of terms and conditions of institute /
immigration rules. Hence, the branches should follow following procedure to protect
Bank’s interest:

a. Send covering letter along with Demand Draft towards payment of fee to the
proposed college/ university of admission informing about sanctioning of
education loan to the student. College / university authorities may also be
requested to inform the Bank in case of cancellation of admission on any
account and refund the fee directly to the Bank in such cases.

b. Obtain a suitable undertaking from the student / borrowers to the effect that
in case of cancellation of admission for any reason, the refund amount received,
if any by them, from college / university will be immediately deposited for
credit of loan account with the Bank and balance amount of loan with interest
will also be repaid.

(l) No Education Loan application should be rejected without concurrence of next

(n) Branches/SMSs are advised to consider the EL applications in a pro-active manner,


without giving scope for complaints.

(o) Branches /SMSs are required to follow the laid down norms in sanctioning/rejection

(s) Reversal of interest in case of delinquent Educational Loans

The Education Loan scheme of our bank is based on the Model Education Loan
Scheme of Indian Banks Association (IBA). As per the Model Education Loan
Scheme for pursuing higher studies in India and Abroad, a repayment holiday /
moratorium is allowed for the student which is ‘course period plus one year or six
months after getting job whichever is earlier’. Only simple interest is charged
during the repayment period. The compounding interest commences only after
completion of the repayment holiday period. After the expiry of moratorium, the
loan repayment commences by fixing EMIs on the principle loan amount and interest
charged during the moratorium.

In this regard we have received a communication from Indian Bank’s Association


vide their letter No. SB/CIR/10-21/9139 dated 26th March, 2014 as under:

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 84
“One of the member banks has sought clarifications on the reversal of interest
accrued during the moratorium period in the case of education loan becoming NPA
as the Banks’ statutory auditors have raised an issue about the interest charged
during the moratorium. We had placed the matter before IBA Managing Committee
for discussion at its meeting held on 27th December, 2013. As per the Managing
Committee’s decision, IBA had taken up the matter with Reserve Bank of India for
its consideration / views.

The Reserve Bank of India has since clarified vide its letter No. DBOD. No. BP.16016
/ 21.04.048 / 2013-14 dated 20th March, 2014 as below:

“treatment of interest accrued during ‘repayment holiday period’ i.e., adding the
accrued interest during ‘repayment holiday period’ to the principal and fixing
repayment in Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs) accordingly. As such, there may
not be any reversal of interest accrued during the ‘repayment holiday period’ if
an education loan account based on ‘IBA Model Educational Loan Scheme’ becomes
non-performing asset.” (Refer Circular No. BCC: BR: 106/126 dated 27.03.2014)

(t) Revised Indian Medical Council (Amendment) Second Ordinance 2013.

(u) As per Medical Council of India, the Indian Citizen who intend to obtain medical
qualification from any foreign country was required to obtain permission from the
Indian Medical Council vide section 9 C of the Ordinance, Section 13(4B) of the IMC
Act, 1956. The above provision has been revised vide Section 1(2) of the IMC
Ordinance, 2013 with effect from 15th May, 2013 and has been notified by the
Ministry of Law and Justice in the Official Gazette of India as “Any Indian citizens
who intend to obtain primary medical qualification from any foreign country on or
after 15th May, 2013 are not required to obtain Eligibility Certificate from the
Medical Council of India”. (Refer Circular No. BCC: BR: 106/86 dated 07.03.2014)

(v) Adherence of instructions by Educational Institutions for remittance of fee.

Complaints have been received from certain Educational Institutions for non-
adherence of payment instructions by the financing Branches for remittance of
student fee to the respective Educational institutions.

In view of above, all the branches are requested to scrupulously follow the
remittance instructions of the Education Institutions /University/regulatory
authority (VISA/Immigration/Admission Council etc) while disbursing loan amount
or making payment of student fee. Some Educational Institutions do not accept
payment of fee through Bankers’ Cheque or Demand Draft etc, since it takes time
for payment to be realized. Details of student (Name, Roll No., Date of Birth etc)
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 85
to be incorporated if specifically directed by the Institution for remittance of fee
through NEFT, RTGS or any other mode of payment like, FlyWire, GlobalPay,
TransferWise etc .Especially for study abroad, the disbursement method may vary
widely depending on the country of study and university like, only online mode,
blocked account, GIC etc.

Please take a careful note of above, while remitting student fee to Educational
Institutions to avoid such complaints in future.

(w) Baroda Education Loan – Asset Classification of Restructured Accounts.

As conveyed vide our Circular No.BCC:BR:103/343 dated 30.11.2011, the maximum


repayment period of Education Loans have been increased from -7- years to 10-15
years.

The clarification from Ministry of Finance, in respect of asset classification of


restructured Education Loan accounts as under:

“If the repayment in Education Loans is extended due to revision in the repayment
period under the new Model Education Loan Scheme, the same may not be treated
as restructuring. However, this treatment would be available only to Education
Loans which are standard in the books of Banks on the date of such extension of
repayment period. Further, such extensions should not be given by Banks with a
retrospective effect and any extension in repayment period should be need based
and take into account the repayment capability of the borrowers ”

(x) Classification as NPA during moratorium Period - Order passed by Debts


Recovery Tribunal

The Hon’ble Presiding Officer, DRT- II, Chandigarh has passed an order in the
matter of Education Loan granted by IDBI Bank to the applicant. Brief facts are
as under:

The applicants had availed education loan of rs. 10 lakhs and to secure repayment
immovable property was mortgaged in the favour of the Bank. The repayment period
was to start from October 2014. The Bank declared the account as NPA and issued
notice under section 13 (2) of the SARFAESI Act, even pending the final
disbursement of the installment to the educational institution. The notice was
challenged wherein the Bank contended that applicant was sanctioned loan of rs. 10
lakhs, the tenure of which was 144 months including 54 months study period, 6
months moratorium period and 84 months were repayment period. The borrowers
were not required to pay EMIs for first 60 months but they were required to serve
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 86
interest during the period , the borrower failed to serve the interest and violated
the terms and conditions of sanction.

The issues considered by the Tribunal are:

1. Whether borrowers are bound to serve interest on education loan during


moratorium period and
2. Whether education loan can be classified during the moratorium period

The tribunal has pointed out clause 8 and 10 of Model Education Loan Scheme of
Indian Bank Association which reads as under:

“8. Rate of Interest: ……. Note: Serving of Interest during study period and the
moratorium period till commencement of repayment is optional for students.
Accrued interest will be added to the principal amount of borrower while fixing the
EMI for repayment.

10. Repayment: ….. 1% interest concession may be provided by the bank, if interest
is served during the study period and subsequent moratorium period prior to
commencement of repayment…..”

The tribunal has observed that loans for education are seen as investments for
economic development and prosperity. Thus, education loan cannot be classified
as NPA during the moratorium period or upon failure of borrower to service
interest during the moratorium period which is otherwise also optional.

In this regard, we may reiterate that as per extent guidelines of our Baroda
Education Loan Scheme:
o Service of interest during the moratorium is optional (Baroda Gyan &
Baroda Scholar). i.e., Service of interest during the moratorium period is
not compulsory.
o The accrued interest during the repayment holiday period to be added to
the principal and repayment in Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) be
fixed.

In view of above please take a careful note of the order passed by Debts Recovery
Tribunal which clarifies that Education Loan cannot be classified as NPA during the
moratorium period or upon failure of borrower to service interest during the
moratorium period which is otherwise also optional.

(y) Revised RBI guidelines on Restructuring and Asset Classification of Education


Loan Accounts.
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 87
As per the extant guidelines, repayment in an Education Loan starts after
completion of course period plus one year.

However, it may so happen that a borrower fails to get a good income or a job after
course completion if the market has a slow-down”. Sometimes, the student may not
get a job, due to macro-economic conditions, which may result in default. In such
cases, the borrower generally demands the extension of moratorium period.

However, as per extant guidelines on Prudential Norms on Income Recognition,


Asset Classification & Provisioning pertaining to advances, accounts that are
restructured from 1st April 2015 attract higher provisioning and are to be
classified as Non-Performing Assets.

Hence in order address this issue and to encourage banks to provide more Education
Loans, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has revised the guidelines on Restructuring
and Asset Classification of Education Loan Accounts, which was advised by IBA vide
their letter no. CIR/RB-ELS/1713 dated 26.12.2016. The revised guidelines are as
under;

 Additional moratorium period up to three spells (not exceeding 6 months each)


may be allowed during life cycle of education loan, taking into account the period
of unemployment/underemployment.

 The said rescheduling of repayment period of such loans due to unemployment /


underemployment of borrower will not be treated as restructured accounts for
computing NPAs.

 However, bank would be required to maintain a higher provisioning of 5% during


the additional moratorium period and one year thereafter.

 “The facility of extended repayment period and increased number of moratorium


for repayment may be extended to existing borrowers whose accounts are
classified as ‘standard’.

To extend the benefit of such additional moratorium, Branches may follow the
procedure as under;

 Be in touch with the Education Loan Borrowers, especially in case of PNPA, whose
accounts are classified as ‘standard’, but show indications of difficulty to pay the
EMI on account of not getting job, loss of job, inadequate salary, higher

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 88
obligation, and other micro / macro issues or consider the request as per scheme
whenever request is received from the borrower.
 Ascertain the factual position and explore the possibility of covering such
accounts for restructuring.
 Obtain a written request from the applicants before such restructuring.
 Branches have to obtain sanction of such additional moratorium from next
higher authority.
 Follow the steps as enumerated in the Job Card (Refer Annexure. 28))
 Branches have to reschedule the restructured education loan accounts through
HLARA menu as per existing procedure.
 Only Rephasement code- 290 has to be entered in HLARA ->Payment Details
tab -> Rescheduling Notes field at the time of rescheduling of the account.
 Higher provisioning of 5% during the moratorium period will be taken care by
ASCROM Cell, BCC, Mumbai.
 An acknowledgement in the prescribed format must be obtained from
Applicant/Co-applicants and Guarantor. (Refer Annexure 27--- for format)

5. Insurance Cover for Education Loan

Various factors like environmental changes, unhealthy lifestyle shift, increasing road
traffics/ natural calamities and various diseases etc. results in loss of life/ critical
illness/ accident/Loss of property and which in turn increases the chances of loan
facilities becoming NPA.

As per the Bank’s policy, the assets charged to the Bank must be adequately insured and
therefore, the property insurance is mandatorily obtained by the borrowers at their
own costs.

There are few unhedged risk still persists in respect of loss of life or critical illness. In
such unforeseen circumstances, the repayment capacity of the borrower is either
considerably squeezed or ceases to exists. In the case of loss of life, the burden of loan
repayment falls on the family of deceased which may or may not have sufficient
resources to pay the same.

To cover such risks, the insurance companies offers various type of insurance products
wherein upon occurrence of such certain event, the loan liability is settled by the
insurance company and the family/ borrower is saved by the hardship of payment at this
crucial juncture of their life.

This insurance cover may be in the form of Credit Life Insurance or Term Insurance duly
assigned in favour of Bank with Bank’s first charge.

Customer is free to avail the Insurance from any issuer of his/her choice.

Bank is having tie-up arrangements with M/s. IndiaFirst Life Insurance Co. Ltd. for
providing Life Insurance Cover to our Education Loan borrowers. (Refer Annexure 9 for
details)

Though the scheme of Insurance Cover to Loan borrower is optional, nevertheless it


is expected from the Branches / SMSs to guide the borrowers that obtaining
insurance cover is always beneficial to them, which is available at a nominal cost and
repayable along with regular EMIs.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 92
6. Can Education Loan be taken over from other Banks/NBFCs ?

 There are no restrictions on takeover of Education Loans from other


Banks/NBFCs. There is no restriction on stream of study. However, Secured Loan
especially for Study abroad (for any stream) and Study in India (Medical and
Aviation) should be focused. Un secured loans for students of Premier
Institutions should also be focused.

 Such loans can be processed under respective scheme codes after following
respective scheme guidelines.

 Operating units while processing such loans should adhere to the general
guidelines on takeover of retail loans.

 Operating units while processing such loans should also take due precautions as
exercised while grating a fresh loan.

 In cases where any of the Education Loan Interest Subsidy is applicable, a


declaration may be obtained stating that Bank of Baroda will not be responsible
for any matter pertaining to subsidy prior to take over and borrowers will take up
the matter with their previous Bank only.

7. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Education Loan

1. Service of Interest during moratorium period (Clarification from IBA)

Quote: Branches are insisting the students to pay the interest on the Education Loan,
which bank would reimburse to them after receipt of interest subsidy from the
Government.

The Education Loan Scheme does not require students to pay interest during
study/moratorium period. As such, it may not be appropriate for Banks to insist on
payment of interest by those eligible for interest subsidy. Interest subsidy as and
when received, may be credited to the loan account against simple interest accrued on
the loan account
Unquote:
As per extent guidelines of our Baroda Education Loan Scheme,

o Service of interest during the moratorium is optional (Baroda Gyan & Baroda
Scholar). i.e., Service of interest during the moratorium period is not compulsory.

o The accrued interest during the repayment holiday period to be added to the
principal and repayment in Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) be fixed.
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 93
o However, our Bank offered 1% concession in rate of interest, if interest is serviced
regularly during repayment holiday/moratorium period, subjected to the condition
that effective rate of interest should not go below Base Rate (only for Loans
sanctioned prior to 01.10.2013). This concession has been withdrawn w.e.f.
01.10.2013.

2. Sanction of loan to more than one child from the same family

Existence of an earlier education loan to the brother(s) and/or sister(s) will not
affect the eligibility of another meritorious student from the same family obtaining
education loan as per this scheme from the bank.

3. How to deal with requests for sanction of collateral free loans to more than
one student from the same family? Is the collateral free limit of Rs. 4.00
lakh for a student or for a family as whole for the purpose of the scheme?

Repayment of the education loan is based on the future earning potential of the
student. Going by the spirit of the scheme, limit of Rs 4.00 lakh collateral free loan
is student specific and not family specific. There is no restriction on giving a second
or third collateral free loan to other siblings when one of the siblings has already
taken a collateral free loan.

4. Reimbursement of fees paid by the student/parents for the first year of


study.
For the first year of study, at times institutions insist that the students pay fees
immediately on admission. As a special case, such payment if made at the time of
seeking admission, will be reimbursed to the students/parents against obtaining
necessary proof of payment. It has to be ensured that no undue advantage is taken
on this count. The expenditure incurred by the applicant for earlier years however
shall not be considered for reimbursement.
For overseas courses, after the student’s admission is confirmed by University,
expenses relating to 1st semester/year will be considered for reimbursement if the
University demands so.

5. Second Education Loans

Banks may consider top up loans to students pursuing further studies within the
overall eligibility limit, if such further studies are commenced during the moratorium
period of the first loan. The repayment of the loan will commence after the
completion of the second course and further moratorium period, as provided under
the scheme.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 94
6. Joint Borrower

The joint borrower should normally be parent(s)/guardian of the student borrower.


In case of a married person, joint borrower can be either spouse or the
parent(s)/parents-in-law.

7. What criteria should be adopted to recognize courses like Nursing, Teacher


Training, B.Ed. for the purpose of grant of education loan and the fees to
be considered for such courses?

Teachers Training Course /Nursing Course/ BEd will be eligible for education loan
provided the training institutions are approved either by the Central Government or
by State Government and such courses should lead to Degree or Diploma Courses and
not to Certificate Course. Branches can consider the request for education loan
under our “Baroda Gyan Scheme” for the above courses conducted by institutions
approved by Central / State Government and leading to Degree or Diploma courses
and not to Certificate Courses.

The fees to be considered for purpose should be the fees structure as approved by
the State Government or Government approved Regulatory Body for merit seats in
Government Colleges/ Private Self Financing Colleges, Cooperative and Colleges run
by Universities, as the case may be.

8. Whether request received for sanction of loan to meet partial cost of studying
abroad can be considered?

It is not uncommon for students to take up part-time jobs as permitted by the


institutions where they are studying to part fund their education. So they will not
be taking loan for meeting entire cost of studies. Branches may sanction loan for
meeting part cost as requested by students in such cases.

9.Can the bank consider request for loan received from NRIs?

Requests received from NRIs can be considered if student is Indian passport holder
and they meet other eligibility requirements. However, it would be necessary to
accept as security any collateral which is enforceable in India. One of the permanent
resident of India (preferably a close relative) should also be taken as co-applicant /
guarantor.

10. How to deal with cases where the joint borrower becomes defaulter after

The student loan will not be affected by any change in asset classification of any
separate bank borrowing of the joint borrower.

11. Release of Installments to students having arrears in semester examinations.

While releasing loan installments to students during the 2nd and subsequent years,
courses of more than one year, Branches have come across students who have failed
in more than one subject in semester examinations and their performance is
continuously poor. In some cases, students are failed in more than 50% of the
subjects they appeared. In such cases, the students may not be in a position to
complete the course within the course period. Securing a good employment would also
difficult for them in the competitive environment and even they get employment the
salary may not adequate to meet the repayment obligations.

The following conditions are suggested for release of subsequent installments to


students:
 If the student borrower fails in one or more subjects in the first year, a
declaration may be obtained from the student/parent that he will clear the
arrears in the ensuing examination.
 From the second year onwards, if the student borrower fails in more than one
third of the subjects he/she appeared, a suitable third party guarantee with
adequate net worth may be insisted for release of further installments.
 The above conditions may be made known to the students and the co-
borrower at the time of loan sanction itself.

12. Some courses pursued by the students where part of the course is in India
and part is in overseas. In such cases, whether Education Loan is to be sanctioned
under Baroda Scholar?

In such cases, Education Loan can be considered under Baroda Scholar (Education
Loan for studies overseas), if the Degree/Certificate is awarded by Foreign
University.

In this connection please note that:


 Interest subsidy (under Education Loan interest subsidy scheme for studies in
Indian- ELIS) is not eligible for students who are doing part of their study in India
and part in Overseas centres.
 Interest subsidy under Padho Pardesh (interest subsidy scheme for overseas
studies for the students belonging to minority communities) is available only if the
degree is awarded by Foreign University.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Education Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme (ELIS)

1. Whether students who have availed education loan above Rs. 10.00 Lacs for
studies in Indian are eligible for interest subsidy; if yes, how to calculate the
interest?

Clarification: Students who have availed education loan above Rs.10.00 Lacs would

However, the interest would be calculated on loan amount upto Rs. 10.00 Lacs only
irrespective of higher amount availed.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 117
2. Whether Education Loans sanctioned before 01.04.2009 are eligible for the
interest subsidy.

Clarification: Yes. But only for the disbursements made on or after 01.04.2009.

3. Income certificate:

In absence of income certificate, whether banks could accept Form No.16 filled
by parents before the Income Tax Authorities?

Clarification: It has been advised that this would not be permitted and only income
certificate issued by the Competent Authority would be permitted under the
scheme.

4. Increasing/lowering of income level of parents.

At the time of the sanction of the education loan the income levels of the
parents were higher than the stipulated norms of Rs.4.5 lacs p.a. However in
the subsequent years due to retirement or other reasons the income levels go
down. Whether in such cases the lower income levels could be considered for
interest subsidy for that particular year?

Clarification: The scheme provides that the income level only at the time of
sanction of loan has to be considered for deriving the eligibility of the a/c under
Education Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme.

5. Settlement of claims under ELIS in accounts where subsidy claimed and closed
subsequently before settlement of the claims.

As per guidelines of the scheme, if an Education Loan is eligible under Education


Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme and even if the borrower has closed the Loan
account during the currency of the Scheme, the borrower is eligible for getting
the interest subsidy.

In such cases, the amount of eligible subsidy may be credited to his Savings Bank
account or may be paid through Demand Draft/Bankers Cheque against a clear
acknowledgement/receipt by the borrower.

6. Designated authority to issue income certificate in the state of Rajasthan.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 118
IBA, vide circular No. SB/CIR/10-21-ISS/2729 dated 17.03.2013 has intimated
that Tehsildars would be the competent authority to issue Income Certificate
under the Education Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme, in the State of Rajasthan.
Subsequently, it was brought to notice of IBA that the Revenue Officers in the
State of Rajasthan will not issue the Income Certificate and that the BPL card will
be a valid Income Certificate. IBA had taken up the matter with Mohr& State Govt.
of Rajasthan and have since received a communication from the Mohr stating that
Tehsildars are designated as the competent authority to certify the income of the
parents of the eligible students for the higher and technical education under the
Central Scheme of Interest Subsidy on Education Loans.

In view of above, Branches may continue to accept the Income Certificate issued
by the Tehsildars in the State of Rajasthan under the Education Loan Interest
Subsidy Scheme.

7. Eligibility of interest subsidy for students secured admission under Management


Quota

As the revised Model Scheme of IBA (revised on September, 2012) “a meritorious


student (who qualifies for a seat under merit quota) will also be eligible for loan
under Education Loan Scheme even if the student chooses to pursue a course under
Management Quota.”

Accordingly, Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) has clarified that in case, the Bank has
been extending Education Loan for student who secured admission under
Management Quota under IBA Model Education Loan Scheme, then the Bank may
consider Education Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme, provided the student borrower’s
parental annual income from all sources should be less than Rs. 4.50 Lacs.

Further, BA has informed that the students who are eligible for interest subsidy
under the Education Loan Interest Subsidy Scheme (ELIS) and secured admission
for eligible courses form recognized institutions as provided in the IBA Model
Education Loan Scheme, would be eligible for the interest subsidy for admissions
taken under Management Quota from the date of introduction of the Scheme (i.e,
from 01.04.2009). (This has been advised to Branches vide Circular No.
BCC:BR:105/327 dated 01.08.2013)

However we have received a clarification from IBA as under: “The Interest subsidy
for Education Loans to students who has taken admission under management
quota could be made effective only from the date of the revised instructions
in September, 2012.”

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 119
In view of above, please note that,Students secured admission for eligible courses
form recognized institutions as provided in the IBA Model Education Loan
Scheme and admission taken under Management Quota would be eligible for the
interest subsidy from September, 2012 onwards only.

8. Service of Interest during moratorium period (Clarification from IBA)

Quote: Branches are insisting the students to pay the interest on the Education
Loan, which bank would reimburse to them after receipt of interest subsidy from
the Government.

The Education Loan Scheme does not require students to pay interest during
study/moratorium period. As such, it may not be appropriate for Banks to insist on
payment of interest by those eligible for interest subsidy. Interest subsidy as and
when received, may be credited to the loan account against simple interest accrued
on the loan account

Unquote:

As per extent guidelines of our Baroda Education Loan Scheme,

o Service of interest during the moratorium is optional (Baroda Gyan & Baroda
Scholar). i.e, Service of interest during the moratorium period is not
compulsory.

o The accrued interest during the repayment holiday period to be added to


the principal and repayment in Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) be fixed.

o However, our Bank offered 1% concession in rate of interest, if interest is


serviced regularly during repayment holiday/moratorium period, subjected
to the condition that effective rate of interest should not go below Base
Rate (only for Loans sanctioned prior to 01.10.2013). This concession has
been withdrawn w.e.f. 01.10.2013.

Queries raised by our Bank and clarifications of HRD received through IBA:

9. A student borrower was not eligible for the interest subsidy at the time of
sanctioning of the Education Loan. Subsequently due to death of his/her father
who is the sole earning member of the family, the annual income has come down
to below4.50 Lacs per annum. In this case, whether the student borrower is
eligible for the interest subsidy scheme from the time of his/her father’s
death?
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 120
Clarification: The Ministry of HRD has clarified that it is not agreeable and
explained that eligibility to be with respect to cut-off date i.e, the date of
application.(Please see query No.4 also)

10. Whether interest subsidy is eligible for student borrowers, who are doing
part of their study in India and part in Overseas under Educational Loan
scheme?

SKILL LOAN SCHEME- Guidelines

1. INTRODUCTION:

Given a huge thrust on skill development in recent years, a need is felt to provide
institutional credit to individuals for taking skill development courses aligned to National
Occupations Standards and Qualification Packs and leading to a
certificate/diploma/degree by the Training Institutes as per National Skill Qualification
Framework (NSQF). Thus, “Skill Loan Scheme” has been developed to support the
national initiatives for skill development.

individuals who intend to take up skill development courses as per the Skilling Loan
Eligibility Criteria.

This scheme is applicable to all member banks of IBA and any other banks and financial
institutions as may be advised by the RBI. The scheme provides broad guidelines to the
banks for operationalizing the skilling loan scheme and the implementing bank will have
the discretion to make changes as deemed fit. The scheme may also be applicable to
Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) and other financial institutions regulated by RBI.

4. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:

National Skill Qualification Framework(NSQF) shall be covered by the Skill Loan.
There is no minimum course duration.
Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 216
4.3 Nationality : The applicant should be an Indian National

4.4 Minimum Age: There is no specific restriction with regard to the age of the student
to be eligible for skilling loan. However, if the student is a minor, while the parent
executes documents for the loan, the bank will obtain a letter of
acceptance/ratification from him / her upon attaining majority.

4.5 Minimum Qualification: As required by the enrolling institutions/organizations as


per NSQF.

4.6 Know your customer (KYC) norms: Aadhar number will also be considered as a valid
proof for KYC norms in addition to other identity and address proof as determined

5. QUANTUM OF FINANCE:

Loans will be in the range of Rs. 5,000/- to Rs. 150,000/-. The estimated per month fees,
based on sector & NSQF level, will be available with the NSDC. Skill loan could be availed
by beneficiaries of other grant/reward based Government schemes for skill training to
cover the cost of such skill training not covered under such grant/reward.

6. EXPENSES CONSIDERED FOR LOAN:

6.1. Tuition / course fee. Banks shall pay such tuition / course fee directly to the Training
Institute.

6.2. Any other reasonable expenditure found necessary for completion of the course
including but not limited to assessment fee, Examination fee, Library charges,
Laboratory fee, Caution deposit, Purchase of books, equipment’s and instruments. (As
such courses are localized boarding, lodging may not be necessary based on the cost
of living in the particular area. However, wherever it has been found necessary, the
same could be considered on merit).

7. MARGIN:

The banks/MFIs can charge a nominal margin money as down-payment from the student,
to keep the student serious about the course. However, the down-payment and the
amount paid as Interest during the course (Clause11) together should not exceed 10% of
the total course amount.

8. RATE OF INTEREST: 1 Year MCLR + 1.50%

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 217
o Servicing of interest during Study Period and Moratorium Period shall be at the
option of the borrower.
o In case, interest is serviced during the study period and Moratorium period,
concession of 1% in interest rate for entire tenure of loan shall be provided.
o For girl students, an incentive in the form of 0.50% Interest Concession shall be
provided as being provided under our Education Loan Product.
o The effective rate of interest should not go below the Base Rate at any instance
(with or with out concessions if any).

9. PROCESSING CHARGES:

No Processing fee will be charged.

10. SECURITY:

No collateral for such skilling loan will be taken. Banks have option to apply to the
National Credit Guarantee Trust Company Ltd (NCGTC) for credit guarantee against
defaults and NCGTC will provide such guarantee at nominal guarantee fee which shall not
exceed 0.5% of the amount outstanding. Such credit guarantee cover will be for a
maximum of 75% of the outstanding loan amount (including interest, if any). In special
cases such as the North Eastern region (NE) and Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected
areas the percentage may be increased on the discretion of NCGTC. Banks may like a
diversion on whether to pass on levy of guarantee fee to the borrower or not.

11. MORATORIUM PERIOD:

In order to instill repayment behavior and get some commitments from the students, the
bank may have installment during the course period itself. However, the total amount
paid by the student as down-payment (Clause 7) and EMI during the course together
should not exceed 10% of the total course value.

However, it is advised that the banks consider moratorium for specific courses or certain
sections of the students. Upon completion of the course, repayment will start after a
moratorium period as indicated below:

Courses of duration upto 1 upto 6 months from the completion of the course
year
Courses of duration above 12 months from the completion of the course
1 year

12. REPAYMENT:

The loan will have a tenure as follows:


Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 218
Loans upto Rs. 50,000 - Upto 3 years
Loans between Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 1 lakh - Upto 5 years
Loans above Rs. 1 lakh - Upto 7 years

13. INSURANCE:

Optional at the requirement of the borrower.

Borrower can avail insurance cover under the existing scheme of Group Credit Life
Insurance scheme for Education Loans in tie up with M/s.India First Insurance and
M/s.Kotak Life Insurance.

14. PREPAYMENT:

The borrower can repay the loan any time after commencement of repayment without
having to pay any prepayment charges. In case a student is not able to complete the
course because of accident/death/disability the bank can seek a pro-rata reimbursement
of the unfinished portion of the course amount from the training institute. This will
reduce the loan burden on the student.

15. Bank Mitra:

Services of Bank Mitra may be used by the Banks to popularize the scheme. Such Bank
Mitra will work as a bridge between bank, training institute and trainee/ loan aspirants.
However, at no point of time can a training institute or an entity with a significant stake
in training (students of which will get the loan) be involved as Bank Mitra. Training
institutes and lending architecture (entities and people down to the last mile) should be
kept at arm's length to avoid any moral hazard or miss-selling of the loan scheme. A bank
employee or its bona fide agency representative should necessarily meet the student to
explain the loan details.

Scheme Document of
National Skill Certification and Monetary Reward
1. Objectives

The objective of this Scheme is to encourage skill development for youth by providing monetary
rewards for successful completion of approved training programs. Specifically, the Scheme aims
to:
 Encourage standardization in the certification process and initiate a process of creating
a registry of skills
 Increase productivity of the existing workforce and align the training and certification to
the needs of the country.
 Provide Monetary Awards for Skill Certification to boost employability and productivity
of youth by incentivizing them for skill trainings
 Reward candidates undergoing skill training by authorized institutions at an average
monetary reward of Rs. 10,000 (Rupees Ten Thousand) per candidate.
 Benefit 10 lakh youth at an approximate total cost of Rs. 1,000 Crores.

2. Background

The Finance Minister in his Budget Speech of 2013 proposed a scheme to encourage skill
development for youth by providing monetary rewards for successful completion of approved
training programs. Excerpts from the Finance Minister’s speech are presented below:

“A large number of youth must be motivated to voluntarily join skill development


programmes. I propose to ask the National Skill Development Corporation to set the
curriculum and standards for training in different skills. Any institution or body may offer
training courses. At the end of the training, the candidate will be required to take a test
conducted by authorized certification bodies. Upon passing the test, the candidate will
be given a certificate as well as a monetary re ward of an average of 10,000 per
candidate. Skill-trained youth will give an enormous boost to employability and
productivity. On the assumption that 10,00,000 youth can be motivated, I propose to
set apart 1,000 crore for this ambitious Scheme. I hope that this will be the trigger to
extend skill development to all the youth of the country.”

Accordingly, this Scheme is hereby implemented to achieve the stated objectives.

3.9 Appropriate consideration will be provided to the economically backward sections.

4. Strategy & Approach


4.1 Eligible Sectors and Job Roles

a) While the Scheme is intended to cover all job roles in all sectors, it will initially
cover only a limited number of high-market-demand Job Roles in specified
economic sectors from Levels 1 to 4 in the NSQF.
b) National Occupational Standards (NOSs) and Qualification Packs (QPs) for these
roles will be prepared by the respective SSCs, and will constitute 80% of the entry-
level workforce in priority sectors.

4.2 Training Content and Eligible Providers

a) To ensure that benefit is extended only to the trainees taking courses which are
aligned to NOSs and QPs for eligible Sectors and Job Roles, a select list of training
institutions to offer these courses will be approved for the purposes of this
Scheme.

Page 2 of 9
Last Revised: 10-September 2013
b) All institutions, government or private (who, during the last two years, have been
selected by any State Government or any Ministry of the Government of India to
implement any Government funded or sponsored Scheme), or are NSDC partners,
shall be deemed to be part of the approved list of training providers under this
Scheme. All such deemed approved training providers will need to get each
training course they propose to offer, aligned to NOS and QPs of various eligible
job roles corresponding to Levels 1 to 4 as designed by SSCs.
c) Those training providers, who have no prior affiliation with any government
institution or NSDC, will go through a pre-screening process of the SSCs according
to an Affiliation Protocol prepared by NSDC/SSC.
d) The willingness of a training provider to permit trainees to pay part of their fees
after the monetary reward has been received, shall be considered while approval
is granted for such training provider to be part of the Scheme.
e) No fees shall be charged by the SSCs for the approval process of training providers
at Para 4.2 (b) above, for each Courseware aligned to a job role. Charges will be
applicable only for training of trainers and their assessments. The fees to be
charged by SSCs for the training providers as at para 4.2(c) will be determined in
due course.
f) The list of all the training providers in the skill development space that have been
associated with any government institution shall be available on the NSDA
website.
g) The list of all the training providers in the skill development space that are NSDC
partners, and those that are pre-screened as per Para 4.2 (c) above shall be
available on the NSDC website in addition to the QPs, NOS, Approved Sectors and
Job Roles.
h) Training programs will be for a minimum of 30 days duration and will include
training on social skills like health, hygiene, communication skills etc. It will be
ensured that assessments are planned by SSCs only after completion of the
training. The duration of training may also include On the Job training, Internships
etc. if required.

4.3 Assessment and Certification

a) No entity that is engaged in providing training under this Scheme shall be eligible
to be approved as an assessment and certification agency.
b) All assessment agencies will be pre-screened and approved by the SSCs and their
details updated on the SDMS.
c) Initially a select set of assessment agencies with national presence, selected as
assessment agencies with Central/State Govt. and having demonstrated ability to
assess the eligible training content w.r.t NOS and QPs, will be selected by SSCs.
Later the Scheme would be made open to all eligible assessment agencies.

Page 3 of 9
Last Revised: 10-September 2013
d) In due course, any institution or body offering assessment services can apply to
work with specific SSCs, for designated NOS and QPs for eligible sectors and job
roles.
e) All assessments will conform to assessment guidelines laid down by the concerned
SSC for each QP. Any candidate can undergo assessment any number of times for
qualifying for a particular job role, at any approved assessment agency. A
candidate has to undergo formal training as a prerequisite for assessment.
f) Assessment Fees charged to candidates for each assessment will be capped as
follows:
i. Courses aligned to shop floor job roles in manufacturing – maximum Rs. 1,500
ii. All other Courses – maximum Rs. 1,000
g) Maximum Registration and approval fees to be charged by the SSCs for the
approval process of assessment agencies are available in Annexure II.

development trainings from eligible providers.

4.5 Monetary Awards

a) The banking network will be used for direct transfer of the funds to the candidates
/ training provider. The reward corpus will be placed with a nodal bank in each
District in consultation with the Indian Banks Association that will then create a
consortium to ensure disbursement of the amount into the account of the
beneficiary/ies. Details of such Banks in each district would be given wide publicity

Page 4 of 9
Last Revised: 10-September 2013
c) Each category would have pre-defined number of awards. The numbers for each
category will be decided by NSDA in consultation with NSDC.
d) In order to enable the financially disadvantaged to use the reward money to fund
a part of the training cost, the training providers will allow candidates to pay some
amount of the course fee after receipt of the monetary reward. At the time of the
enrollment for the course, the trainee will have to pay some part of the course fee
(to be decided separately), so that the candidate has a sustained interest in the
completion of the course.
e) A Complaints / Grievance cell for this Scheme would be set up which shall include
representatives of the SSCs, the NSDC and the NSDA. The first level of redress

criteria with NSDC.

5. Process for availing the benefits of the Scheme

5.1 The candidate can enroll in any course from the list of registered courses in specified
high demand sectors. The candidate can pursue the course with any of the approved
training providers.
5.2 The candidate needs to intimate the training providers that he/she intends to
participate in the Scheme. The details of the student shall then be entered in to the
SDMS database along with the UID/NPR number (if neither is available, the mobile
number of the candidate), and contact details. The training provider will facilitate the
enrolment of the candidate in UIDAI/NPR Scheme and update the mobile number
with the UID/NPR number.
5.3 Candidates from economically disadvantaged sections will be allowed to pay initial
fees equal to the difference between the training cost and the reward money they
are eligible for. In such cases the candidate can authorize payment of the reward
money to be directly transferred to the training provider after the candidate
successfully passes the assessment. Bank account details of such candidates shall be
mandatorily taken at the time of registration, or at the time of opening of account.
5.4 After completion of the training, the candidate may get assessed by any of the
approved assessment agencies as specified in 4.3 above.

Page 5 of 9

concerned SSC electronically.
5.6 The assessment agency, in association with SSCs, will award a secure certificate with
a QR bar code for successful completion and assessment of a course through the
SDMS. The certificate will be electronically verified using a CAM device and linked to
UID/NPR number of the candidate.
5.7 If the candidate has successfully completed a course which is already being certified
by agencies other than SSCs in the existing market scenario, such as universities,
school boards, NCVT, SCVT, internationally recognized certification agencies etc.,
SSCs shall work with these institutions for reward of dual certification for the course.
5.8 The certification fees shall be paid by the candidate to the assessment agencies as
defined in 4.3 (f) above.
5.9 The award and issue of the certificate will be captured in SDMS.
5.10 After successfully meeting all eligibility criteria as specified in 4.4 above, the
candidate shall be eligible for the monetary reward.
5.11 After verification of the secure certificate by the approved training provider and
updation of SDMS, NSDC will instruct the bank to credit the candidate’s bank account
directly. Alternately the award money may also be paid as A/C payee bank draft in
the name of the beneficiary.
5.12 Where the fees have been paid in part, the training provider will be paid by NSDC
through a direct bank transfer.
5.13 Once the monetary reward is given under the Scheme and the candidates’ record has
been updated on SDMS, no further payment will be made using the secure
certificate.

Annexure 1

Definitions

a) NSDA – The National Skill Development Agency (NSDA) is an autonomous body,


constituted by the Government of India and subsumes the erstwhile National
Council on Skill Development (PMNCSD), the National Skill Development
Coordination Board (NSDCB) and the Office of the Adviser to PM on Skill
Development (OAPM). The NSDA will anchor the National Skills Qualifications
Framework (NSQF) and will facilitate the setting up of professional certifying
bodies in addition to the existing ones.

b) NSDC – The National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) has been instituted to
foster private sector initiatives in skill development. It is a Private Public
Partnership (PPP) organization with representatives of Government and Industry
Associations on its Board.

c) SSCs – Sector Skill Councils (SSCs) are industry-led bodies, who would be
responsible for the defining the skilling needs, concept, processes, certification,
accreditation of their respective industry sectors. The SSCs shall prescribe the
NOSs and QPs for the job roles relevant to their industry, and shall work with the
NSDA to ensure that these are in accordance with the NSQF.

d) NSQF – The National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF), would be a descriptive


framework that organizes qualifications according to a series of levels of
knowledge, skills and aptitude. These levels are defined in terms of learning
outcomes i.e., the competencies which the learners must possess regardless of
whether they were acquired through formal, non-formal or informal education
and training. It is, therefore, a nationally integrated education and competency
based skill framework that will provide for multiple pathways both within
vocational education and vocational training and among vocational education,
vocational training, general education and technical education, thus linking one
level of learning to another higher level to enable a person to acquire desired skill
levels, transit to the job market and return to skill development to further upgrade
their skill sets.

e) NOSs – National Occupational Standards (NOSs) specify the standard of
performance an individual must achieve when carrying out a particular activity in
the workplace, together with the knowledge and understanding they need to
meet that standard consistently. Each NOS defines one key function in a job role.
In their essential form, NOSs describe functions, standards of performance and
knowledge/understanding.

f) QPs – A set of NOSs, aligned to a job role, called Qualification Packs (QPs), would
be available for every job role in each industry sector. These drive both the
creation of curriculum, and assessments. These job roles would be at various
proficiency levels, and aligned to the NSQF.NOSs and QPs for job roles in various
industry sectors, created by SSCs and subsequently ratified by appropriate
authority, would be available online and updated from time to time.

g) SDMS – The Skill Development Management System (SDMS) has been developed
and maintained by the NSDC.

have been exhausted. On a claim being paid, NCGTC / the Fund shall be deemed to have been discharged
from all its liabilities on account of the guarantee in force in respect of the borrower concerned.
iv. In the event of default, the lending institution shall exercise its rights, if any, to take over the assets of
the borrowers and the amount realized, if any, from the sale of such assets or otherwise shall first be credited
in full by the lending institutions to NCGTC before it claims the remaining portion of the guaranteed amount.
v. The lending institution shall be liable to refund the claim released by NCGTC together with penal

making payments towards any one or more of the same, whether the account towards which the payment is
made is covered by the guarantee of the Fund or not, such payments shall, for the purpose of this clause, be
deemed to have been appropriated by the lending institution to the debt covered by the guarantee and in
respect of which, a claim has been preferred and paid, irrespective of the manner of appropriation indicated by
such borrower or the manner in which such payments are actually appropriated.
iii. Every amount recovered and due to be paid to NCGTC shall be paid without delay, and if any amount
due to NCGTC remains unpaid beyond a period of 30 days from the date on which it was first recovered,
interest shall be payable to NCGTC by the lending institution at the rate which is 4% over and above the Bank

Guidelines for 1% Interest concession for servicing monthly interest on regular basis
Applicable to Education Loans sanctioned prior to 01.10.2013.
(Concession withdrawn w.e.f. 01.10.2013)

For Education Loans sanctioned prior to 01.10.2013 an additional concession 1% in rate of


interest is available for borrowers, if the interest debited during the moratorium period
is regularly serviced.

In this connection, we reiterate the contents of the circular No.BCC:BR:95/419 dated


27.12.2003 interalia advising the guidelines for extending this concession to Education
Loan borrowers.

 The objective of the concession was to encourage borrowers to repay interest


during study/moratorium period so that borrower’s liability and bank’s exposure
is restricted to the limit sanctioned.

 The concession/rebate of 1% in rate of interest is to be extended to all borrowers


who repay interest debited to the account during moratorium period regularly in
time.

 Interest debited in the account if serviced before next interest is debited in the
account but not later than 30 days, will be termed as regular repayment of
interest.

 The rebate of 1% interest for the moratorium period will be credited back to the
borrower’s Education Loan account, when the actual repayment of principal i.e,
EMI starts, if the interest is serviced in time as defined herein above.

 The rate of interest to be charged during the repayment period and from the
date when the repayment starts till the date of final settlement, would be 1% less
than which is stipulated in the sanction.

 In case of default in repayment of future installments/interest, overdue interest


@2% would be charged as usual.

The above matter is further clarified hereunder by an example:


 Loan sanctioned on 01.01.2011, Study period -2- years, repayable in -5- years,
repayment to start from -6- months after getting employment or one year after
study period which ever is earlier. Rate of Interest is Base Rate + 2.50%.

Master Circular on Education Loans BCC: BR: 111:98 dated 21.02.2019 Page | 266
 If the borrower gets employment on 01.04.2013, his 1st installment will be due on
01.10.2013. Now if he has regularly paid interest from 01.01.2011 to 30.09.2013,
the amount of interest concession @1% p.a for the period, 01.01.2011 to
30.09.2013 will be credited to borrower’s loan account on 01.10.2013.

 The interest rate will be reduced by 1%, i.e, Base rate + 1.50% for the repayment
period from 01.10.2013 onwards.

The above clarification holds good for the products under Baroda Education Loan
Scheme, viz Baroda Vidya, Baroda Gyan, Baroda Scholar and Baroda Education Loan for
Vocational Education & Training sanctioned prior to 01.10.2013.

The concession is not available for Education Loans sanctioned on or after


01.10.2013.

Government of NCT of Delhi, as a part of its 70 Action Points, has envisaged a
Higher Education and Skill Development Guarantee Scheme for students who
wish to pursue diploma or degree level courses or specified skill development
courses in Delhi and have done their class X and class XII from Delhi. For courses
for which the qualifying examination is class X, students who have done class X
from Delhi will be eligible under the scheme. Under the scheme, bank loans upto
Rs.10 lakhs taken by the students will be provided guarantee through a Higher
Education and Skill Development Credit Guarantee Fund to be created by the
Government for providing guarantee to the banks in case of default. Students
will not be required to furnish any collateral or margin money and the scheme will
be universal in nature regardless of the student’s background.

2. OBJECTIVE OF THE SCHEME

The Higher Education and Skill Development Guarantee Scheme outlined below
aims at providing financial support from the banking system to meritorious
students for pursuing higher education in Delhi. The main emphasis is that a
meritorious student is provided with an opportunity to pursue higher education
with the financial support from the banking system with reasonable and
affordable terms and conditions.

3. SALIENT FEATURES OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION CREDIT GUARANTEE


FUND

The scheme envisages creation of a corpus of Rs. 30 Crores called the Higher
Education and Skill Development Credit Guarantee Fund(hereinafter referred
to as the Fund), initially which will be used to provide appropriate guarantee.
Banks wishing to avail of this facility will have to pay an Annual Guarantee Fee
(AGF) of 0.50% of the outstanding amount as on the date of application of the
guarantee cover upfront to the Fund within 30 days from the date of Credit
Guarantee Demand Advice Note (CGDAN) of guarantee fee. All subsequent AGFs
could be collected on the basis of the outstanding loan amount as at the beginning
of the financial year. On default of the loan and invocation of claim, the Fund

MODEL EDUCATIONAL LOAN SCHEME FOR PURSUING HIGHER EDUCATION


IN INDIA AND ABROAD
2015 (Amended 2016)

1. INTRODUCTION

Education is central to the human resources development and empowerment in any country.
National and State level policies are framed to ensure that this basic need of the population is
met through appropriate public and private sector initiatives. While government endeavour to
provide primary education to all on a universal basis, public funding of higher education is
not considered feasible. Cost of education has been going up in recent times and since the
student has to bear most of the cost, there is a clear case for institutional funding in this area.
This model education loan scheme is an attempt to bring out a viable and sustainable bank
loan scheme to meet the aspirations of our society.

Knowledge and information would be the driving force for economic growth in the coming
years. The current rate of economic growth of the country demands technically and
professionally trained man power in large numbers. In this backdrop, loans for education are
seen as investments for economic development and prosperity. The model Education Loan
Scheme was developed by the Indian Banks’ Association to help meritorious students pursue
higher education in technical and professional courses. As the focus is on development of
human capital, repayment of the loan is expected to come from future earnings of the student
after completion of education. Hence the assessment of the loan will be based on
employability and earning potential of the student upon completion of the course and not the
parental income/family wealth.

Based on recommendations made by a Study Group, IBA had prepared a Model Educational
Loan Scheme in the year 2001 which was advised to banks for implementations by Reserve
Bank of India vide circular No.RPCD.PLNFS.BC.NO.83/06.12.05/2000-01 dated April 28,
2001 along with certain modifications suggested by the Government of India. In line with
the announcement made by the Hon'ble Finance Minister in his Budget Speech for the year
2004-05, IBA had communicated certain changes in the security norms applicable to
education loans with limits above ₹ 4 lakhs and up to ₹ 7.5 lakhs. The scheme was further
modified in the year 2007-08 based on experience gained in the operation of the scheme over
the years.

With increased public awareness about the benefits of the education loan scheme, bank
branches were receiving more and more applications for loans every year. This also resulted
in cases of customer grievances due to misinterpretation of the provisions of the scheme. To
make the scheme more transparent and to minimize scope for multiple interpretations leading
to disputes, a review exercise was taken up in September 2012.

The current revision enlarges the coverage under the Scheme and attempts to address some
of the weaknesses noticed. The revised scheme provides for uniform moratorium of one year
1
and longer repayment periods for the loans. The terms of sanction like margins and security
have also been relaxed for loans covered by Credit Guarantee Scheme of the Government.
Following feedback received from other stake holders, some of the suggestions brought out
in the RBI proposal for Higher Education Lending Programme (HELP) have also been
incorporated in this Scheme. The amendments to the Scheme were cleared by the Managing
Committee of the Association at its meeting held on 26th June 2015.

2. OBJECTIVES OF THE SCHEME

The Educational Loan Scheme outlined below aims at providing financial support from the
banking system to meritorious students for pursuing higher education in India and abroad.
The main emphasis is that a meritorious student, though poor, is provided with an
opportunity to pursue education with the financial support from the banking system with
affordable terms and conditions.

3. APPLICABILITY OF THE SCHEME

The scheme detailed below could be adopted by all member banks of the Association or
other banks and financial institutions as may be advised by the Reserve Bank of India. The
scheme provides broad guidelines to the banks for operationalising the educational loan
scheme and the implementing bank will have the discretion to make changes as deemed
fit.

4. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA

4.1 Students Eligibility

 The student should be an Indian National.


 Should have secured admission to a higher education course in recognized
institutions in India or Abroad through Entrance Test/ Merit Based Selection
process after completion of HSC (10 plus 2 or equivalent). However, entrance test
or selection purely based on marks obtained in qualifying examination may not be
the criterion for admission to some of the post graduate courses or research
programmes. In such cases, banks will have to adopt appropriate criteria based on
employability and reputation of the institution concerned.

Note:
It would be in order for banks to consider a meritorious student (who qualifies
for a seat under merit quota) eligible for loan under this scheme even if the
student chooses to pursue a course under Management Quota.

4.2 Design elements for classification of education loans


It is proposed to classify the education loan portfolio into three categories viz.

a. Loans to students admitted to top rated institutions

2
b. Loans to students admitted to other domestic institutions
c. Loans to students seeking studies abroad.
It is expected that depending upon risk perception, reputation of the institution
and employability of the students banks will be able to fine tune their terms and
conditions of sanction suitably to these categories.
The guidance note attached to the scheme gives elaboration of design elements for
classifying educational loans

5. COURSES ELIGIBLE

5.1. Studies in India: (Indicative list)

 Approved courses leading to graduate/ post graduate degree and

sanctioned, the cases be transferred to the bank branch near to the institution for
follow up with student / institution.
 The loan to be disbursed in stages as per the requirement/ demand directly to the
Institutions/ Vendors of equipments / instruments to the extent possible.

11. REPAYMENT

Repayment Holiday / Moratorium: Course period + 1 year.


Banks may also provision for moratorium taking into account spells of under-
employment/unemployment, say two or three times (maximum of 6 months at a time)
during the life cycle of the loan. Banks may also encourage student borrowers who
want to set up start-up units by giving moratorium on repayment of principal and
interest during incubation period which may be considered up to 2 years.

If the student is not able to complete the course within the scheduled time, extension of
time for completion of course may be permitted for a maximum period of 2 years. If the
student is not able to complete the course for reasons beyond his control, sanctioning
authority may at his discretion consider such extensions as may be deemed necessary to
complete the course. In case the student discontinues the course midway, appropriate

commencement of repayment.
 Repayment of the loan will be in equated monthly instalments for a period of 15
years for all categories.
 While EMI based repayment is the generally accepted practice, many times the
salary levels at the start of the career may not facilitate comfortable payment of
EMI in certain cases (e.g. professionals like Doctors). Telescoping of repayment
with stepped up instalments with passage of time may be considered in such cases.

Note:-

No prepayment penalty will be levied for prepayment of loan any time during the
repayment period.

For this purpose financial and other supporting documents may be obtained from
applicant, if required.

(Some of the foreign universities require the students to submit a certificate from their
bankers about the sponsors' solvency/ financial capability, with a view to ensure that the
sponsors of the students going abroad for higher studies are capable of meeting the
expenses till completion of studies.)

REVISED GUIDANCE NOTES ON MODEL EDUCATIONAL LOAN SCHEME


FOR PURSUING HIGHER EDUCATION IN INDIA AND ABROAD
2015 – [Amended 2016]

I. Introduction

Educational Loan Scheme is a socially and economically relevant loan scheme from the
Indian banking industry. Rightly, the RBI has included education loans as part of the
priority sector lending of banks. It aims to provide need-based finance to meritorious
student for taking up higher education.

In any commercial lending decision, credit worthiness of the borrower and the viability of
the scheme are important. The student borrower has no credit history and as such he is
assumed to be creditworthy as this is a futuristic loan. However, it is likely that the joint
borrower for the loan has a credit history and any adverse features could have a bearing
on the assessment of credit risk. If the joint borrower has a loan account with the bank
and the loan is treated as non-performing asset, the bank runs the risk of having to
consider the student loan also as NPA ab-initio. To overcome this, the bank may, as a
prudent measure insists on a joint borrower acceptable to the bank, in case of adverse
credit history of the parent/guardian of the student.

II. Objectives of the scheme

The educational loan scheme is meant to provide need-based assistance to meritorious


students in pursuing higher education. Since the word “meritorious” is a relative term it
would be necessary for banks to specify parameters for defining the term meritorious.
The following approach is suggested:

If the student has obtained admission to an eligible course through a merit based selection
process, he/she could be considered a meritorious student. Generally, admission to
professional and technical courses are through common entrance tests and those who get
admission through this process could be considered meritorious. Where the admission is
purely based on the marks scored in qualifying examinations, the bank may fix cut-off
marks (percentage) for loan eligibility.

1
Very often enquiries are made whether the model scheme covers students who are
getting admission against management quota. Management seats or management
quota refers to the seats in private education institutions for which the management
has discretion to give admission on factors other than merit. Usually, out of permitted
seats for the batch, a certain percentage is earmarked to be filled from State level
merit list and the rest are allowed to be filled by the management at their discretion.

Usually for the management seats the only requirement would be passing of the
qualifying examination with certain minimum stipulated marks. It is logical to
interpret that these seats do not qualify for being called “meritorious”

Banks have reported certain cases where the employment potential would not justify
the fee structure for management seats from the point of repayment of the loan being
sought. Hence, any loan considered by banks for students getting admission under
management quota would be outside the model scheme. Banks may fix appropriate
terms and conditions for such loans. However, a student getting admission offer
under merit quota may choose to take up a course under management quota as a
personal preference. Such students may be sanctioned loans under this Model
Scheme.

III. Applicability of the Scheme

The Model Scheme has been developed for the benefit of the member banks of the
Association. However, other banks and financial institutions can also adopt the
model without reference to the Association.

IV. Eligibility Criteria

IV.i. Student Eligibility

For the purpose of this scheme higher education is defined as studies taken up after
completion of higher secondary school i.e. ten plus two stage. The need for bank
loan scheme came for discussion in the country for meeting higher levels of fees
charged by private managements for technical and professional courses consequent
to ban on capitation fee. However, in the model scheme a generalized definition has
been adopted for higher studies for wider coverage. It is expected that the banks
will decide on the courses for which they will be giving student loans based on
employability and consequent ability to repay the loan.

References are often made about the eligibility of students pursuing employment
oriented courses like teachers training courses and 3-year technical diploma courses
in polytechnic institutions after completion of 10th standard. It is clarified that banks
are free to include such employment-oriented courses as eligible course provided
they are offered by approved/recognized colleges/institutions. The 3 year diploma
courses are also covered as eligible courses under ‘IBA Model Loan Scheme for
Vocational Education and Training’.

2
It need to be noted that while the Central Sector Interest Subsidy Scheme of
MoHRD is based on ‘IBA Model Educational Loan Scheme’, the subsidy is
applicable only for loans given for Professional and Technical courses (after 12th
standard) in India.

IV.ii. Courses eligible

a. Studies in India

The list of courses given in the model scheme is purely indicative in nature. The
important thing is that the course is approved / recognized by the designated
academic authority/regulatory body for the stream of study concerned.

Links to the web sites of the University Grants Commission (UGC), All India
Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the Ministry of HRD (MoHRD)
have been provided in the model scheme to serve as guidance on courses and
approving authorities for various courses, which fall within the definition of
higher studies.

Banks may prepare and publish a list of eligible courses they would consider for
sanctioning of student loans. Since employability of students on the completion
of the course is an important consideration for loan approval, banks may
consider introducing a system of assessing the employability of students through
the campus placements system. Details such as percentage of final year
students getting job offers through campus placement, average salary offers etc.
may be collected in respect of colleges / institutions from which most loan
applications were received in the past for evaluation of employability of
students. This exercise should be done on an on going basis to reflect the
current status.

Since employability is the main criteria for decision making, it would be in


order for banks to consider financing for studying part-time courses (evening
classes or otherwise).

Job oriented specialized programmes like maritime courses which are offered in
collaboration with foreign institutions may not be having recognition in India.
However, if the placement record of such institution gives confidence about
employability, banks may, at their discretion consider financing such courses.

Similarly, financial assistance for pursuing research work could also be


considered for financing on merit.

Note:

While evaluating employability and repayment possibilities, banks should take


into consideration, availability of interest subsidy under the MoHRD Central
Sector Scheme introduced w.e.f. 1.4.2009. Under the scheme, the Central Govt.

3
subsidises 100% of the loan’s interest during the study period and subsequent
moratorium period before commencement of repayment. It is expected that the
interest subsidy could bring the EMI for repayment by as much as 30 to 40%.
The student hailing from economically weaker section family would benefit
from this scheme.

b. Studies Abroad

Diploma courses and certificate courses have not been included as eligible
courses for the scheme. Post graduate studies leading to PG degrees and PG
diplomas offered by reputed institutes/universities only will be covered by the
scheme. Assessment of employment potential or future prospects is very
important criterion considering the higher cost of studies involved. The web link
given in the scheme is for guidance and there could be other links/sources
giving such useful information.

c. Expenses considered

The Model scheme is aimed at meeting all genuine study expenses of a student
required to complete the study undertaken. It needs to be noted that sometimes,
the fee structure varies with type of college/institution within the same State for
a given course. The fees charged by the government colleges/institutes are
generally the lowest, with higher fees permitted in aided private
colleges/institutions; fee structure being highest in unaided private
colleges/institutes. Sometimes the difference between the lowest and highest fee
structure levied for the same course by different colleges/institutions is too high
to give comfort to a banker in taking credit decision as employment prospects
remain same. A practical approach would be to consider approved fee structure
for merit quota seats in all colleges/institutions, provided banks are satisfied
about repayment prospects on employment.

d. Rating as an assessment tool

Banks could use rating of education institutions and student as a tool for
targeting students borrowers and improving asset quality. External data on
rating of various education institutions may be available in public domain. The
track record of the institution in terms of percentage placement and average
emoluments offered to passing out student would be useful information in
creating rating matrix. Similarly, along with the rating of institutions, banks
could also attempt rating of students. Academic record and ranking in the
selection test would be core for the initial rating. To this, the academic record
during the study period could be added to revise the students rating from year
to year. Students getting admission to highly rated institutions and students
who have high rating for themselves could be offered loans with lower rate of
interest.

4
Besides weightage to ranking of institute and merit of students ranking of courses
offered by the educational institution be done on the basis of placements record of
the institution concerned.

V. Quantum of finance

While assessing the quantum of finance, banks should ensure that a student is
neither over financed or under financed. It would be necessary to take into
account Scholarships / concessions etc., if the student is entitled to, before fixing
the limit for sanction. At the same time, if some of the genuine expenses are left
out or remains uncovered, the student will find difficulty in completing the course
with consequent stress on repayment.

Banks should ensure that the government scholarships or scholarships from any
source are credited to the loan account, if the scholarship amount was not netted
off while fixing quantum of finance.

VI. Margin

VII. Security --

VIII. Rate of interest

In the past, interest rates were linked to the BPLR of banks. With effect from 1st
July 2010, the banking system has switched over to base Rate / MCLR linked
product pricing for loans and advances. The new system is more transparent and
expected to result in better risk based pricing of loans in the country. Also, market
competition is expected to bring down interest spreads. Hence it is proposed to
leave the interest rates free for banks to decide at their end. However, it is
proposed to retain 1% interest concession for servicing of interest during
study/moratorium period. It is also expected that the banks will charge relatively
lower rates for loans up to ₹ 4 lakhs and continue concessions hitherto being
given to girl students. It will also be open to banks to offer differential interest
rates based on rating of courses/institutions or even students.

5
IX. Appraisal/Sanction/Disbursement

The model scheme does not look at the financial position of parents while
evaluating loan to a meritorious student. Repayment possibilities have to be based
on projected future earnings of the student on employment after education. To
avoid subjectivity in assessment, it is suggested that the banks may fix from time
to time earning potential for various courses, percentage of income to be
considered for repayment etc. A well laid appraisal procedure will ensure that the
decision to sanction an education loan is based on sound commercial logic,
besides serving a noble social cause.

The suggestion that bank branches nearest to the residence of parents to consider
the loan application was given for better tracking of students during and after
study period. Banks are, however, free to adopt different norms to suit their
business plans.

X. Repayment

Repayment period has been increased to give greater comfort to the student
borrowers to repay the loan out of their future earnings. Prepayment options are
also provided for persons who would like to clear the loan faster out of better than
anticipated earnings. No prepayment charges are to be levied in such cases.

XI. Insurance

Insurance policy should be obtained only with the prior consent of the student
borrower. This is more so relevant in case of loans up to ₹ 4 lakhs where the bank
loans are without any security. The clause regarding insurance has been included in
the scheme to provide a life cover to the student.

XII. Follow Up/Monitoring

Monitoring academic progress of the student is necessary for the success of the
Scheme. Considering that all banks are now on CBS, it is suggested that
irrespective of the branch where loan is sanctioned, monitoring of loans during the
study period may be entrusted to the branch dealing with the institution or the one
located nearer to the educational institution. Generally, college authorities will
provide progress report after every semester / year.

Member banks may note that professional colleges allow students to move to the
higher class even if they fail in a few subjects in the examination for previous
year/semester. The disbursement of subsequent installments should not be stopped
for the reason that the student has failed in one or two subjects in the examination
provided he has been allowed to keep terms.

6
The Banks may also explore the possibility of sending payment towards the fees to
the institutions through electronic channels. Progress reports may also be received
electronically wherever possible.

XIII. Tracking of students

It is found that banks will be able to track the student after completion of the
course effectively if co-ordinated with the education institutions. Educational
institutions will be able to provide placement details and in some cases changes in
the initial years after education. The alumni forums of educational institutions
can also give valuable feedback.

Many banks obtain Permanent Account Number (PAN) for its value in future
tracking. However, as most of the students may not require PAN during education
period, submission of PAN details should not be made a pre-condition for loan
sanction. However, considering the ease of registering PAN, the students may be
asked to submit PAN during the course of studies.

Aadhaar Card issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India is also seen as
a unique identifier for future tracking. While Aadhaar registration should not be
made a pre-condition for loan sanction, it is suggested that banks may obtain the
Aadhaar for their record before the student completes the full course of studies.
Accordingly, suitable clause may be included in the sanctioned letter.

SKILL LOAN SCHEME
1. INTRODUCTION

Given a huge thrust on skill development in recent years, a need is felt to provide
institutional credit to individuals for taking skill development courses aligned to National
Occupations Standards and Qualification Packs and leading to a
certificate/diploma/degree by the Training Institutes as per National Skill Qualification
Framework (NSQF). Thus, “Skill Loan Scheme” has been developed to support the
national initiatives for skill development.

2. OBJECTIVE
Skill Loan Scheme (herein after called „Skilling Loan‟) aims at providing a loan facility to
individuals who intend to take up skill development courses as per the Skilling Loan
Eligibility Criteria.

3. APPLICABILITY OF THE SCHEME


This scheme is applicable to all member banks of IBA and any other banks and financial
institutions as may be advised by the RBI. The scheme provides broad guidelines to the
banks for operationalizing the skilling loan scheme and the implementing bank will have
the discretion to make changes as deemed fit. The scheme may also be applicable to
Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) and other financial institutions regulated by RBI.

4. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
4.1 Training Institutes: Any individual who has secured admission in a course run by
Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs), Polytechnics or in a school recognized by central or
State education Boards or in a college affiliated to recognized university, training
partners affiliated to National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC)/Sector Skill
Councils, State Skill Mission, State Skill Corporation, preferably leading to a certificate /
diploma / degree issued by such organization as per National Skill Qualification
Framework (NSQF) is eligible for a Skilling Loan. The Government of India / State
Governments may, from time to time, notify institutes/organizations for the purpose.

4.2 Training Courses: Courses run by above mentioned Training Institutes (in 4.1) aligned
to National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) shall be covered by the Skill Loan.
There is no minimum course duration.

1|Page
4.3 Nationality : The applicant should be an Indian National
4.4 Minimum Age : There is no specific restriction with regard to the age of the
student to be eligible for skilling loan. However, if the student is a minor, while the
parent executes documents for the loan, the bank will obtain a letter of
acceptance/ratification from him / her upon attaining majority.
4.5 Minimum Qualification: As required by the enrolling institutions/organizations as per
NSQF.
4.6 Know your customer (KYC) norms: Aadhar number will also be considered as a valid
proof for KYC norms in addition to other identity and address proof as determined by
respective banks/ lending institutes

5. QUANTUM OF FINANCE
Loans will be in the range of Rs. 5,000/- to Rs. 150,000/-. The estimated per month fees,
based on sector & NSQF level, will be available with the NSDC. Skill loan could be
availed by beneficiaries of other grant/reward based Government schemes for skill
training to cover the cost of such skill training not covered under such grant/reward.

6. EXPENSES CONSIDERED FOR LOAN


6.1. Tuition / course fee. Banks shall pay such tuition / course fee directly to the Training
Institute
6.2. Any other reasonable expenditure found necessary for completion of the course
including but not limited to assessment fee, Examination fee, Library charges,
Laboratory fee, Caution deposit, Purchase of books, equipment‟s and instruments (As
such courses are localized boarding, lodging may not be necessary based on the cost of
living in the particular area. However, wherever it has been found necessary, the same
could be considered on merit).

7. MARGIN
The banks/MFIs can charge a nominal margin money as down-payment from the
student, to keep the student serious about the course. However, the down-payment and
the amount paid as Interest during the course (Clause11) together should not exceed
10% of the total course amount.

2|Page
8. RATE OF INTEREST
Interest rate to be charged linked to the base rate of banks as decided by the individual
banks or at reduced rate, if an interest subsidy is provided by the Central / State Govt. to
all or a class of beneficiaries proposed to be targeted. Simple Interest will be charged
during the study period and upto commencement of repayment.

Note :
• Servicing of interest during study period and the moratorium period till
commencement of repayment is optional for students.
• 1% interest concession may be provided by the bank, if interest is serviced
during the study period and subsequent moratorium period prior to commencement of
repayment.

9. PROCESSING CHARGES
No Processing fee will be charged by Banks/MFIs.

10. SECURITY
No collateral for such skilling loan will be taken. Banks have option to apply to the
National Credit Guarantee Trust Company Ltd (NCGTC) for credit guarantee against
defaults and NCGTC will provide such guarantee at nominal guarantee fee which shall
not exceed 0.5% of the amount outstanding. Such credit guarantee cover will be for a
maximum of 75% of the outstanding loan amount (including interest, if any). In special
cases such as the North Eastern region (NE) and Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected
areas the percentage may be increased on the discretion of NCGTC. Banks may like a
diversion on whether to pass on levy of guarantee fee to the borrower or not.

11. MORATORIUM PERIOD


In order to instill repayment behavior and get some commitments from the students, the
bank may have installment during the course period itself. However, the total amount
paid by the student as down-payment (Clause 7) and EMI during the course together
should not exceed 10% of the total course value.

However, it is advised that the banks consider moratorium for specific courses or certain
sections of the students. Upon completion of the course, repayment will start after a
moratorium period as indicated below:

3|Page
Courses of duration upto 6 months from the completion of the course
upto 1 year
Courses of duration 12 months from the completion of the course
above 1 year

The banks will have flexibility to choose the structure of repayment - flat Equated
Monthly Instalments (EMI), tube payments or moratorium period as deemed fit for
various sectors and student categories.

12. REPAYMENT
The loan will have a tenure as follows:
Loans upto ₹ 50,000 - Upto 3 years
Loans between ₹ 50,000 to ₹ 1 lakh - Upto 5 years
Loans above ₹ 1 lakh - Upto 7 years

13. INSURANCE
Optional at the requirement of the borrower

14. PREPAYMENT
The borrower can repay the loan any time after commencement of repayment without
having to pay any prepayment charges. In case a student is not able to complete the
course because of accident/death/disability the bank can seek a pro-rata reimbursement
of the unfinished portion of the course amount from the training institute. This will reduce
the loan burden on the student.

15. Bank Mitra


Services of Bank Mitra may be used by the Banks/MFIs to popularize the scheme. Such
Bank Mitra will work as a bridge between bank, training institute and trainee/ loan
aspirants. However, at no point of time can a training institute or an entity with a
significant stake in training (students of which will get the loan) be involved as Bank
Mitra. Training institutes and lending architecture (entities and people down to the last
mile) should be kept at arm's length to avoid any moral hazard or miss-selling of the loan
scheme. A bank employee or its bona fide agency representative should necessarily
meet the student to explain the loan details.
