- Retail Loans / Corporate Loans (Term Loans / Demand Loans)
Personal Loan Limit – LKR 1,000,000/-
Tenor of the Loan – 5 Years
Interest rate – 12.50% p.a. (fixed)
Outstanding – LKR 900,000/-
Monthly Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI) – LKR 22,500/-
If the customer does not pay the EMI on the due date and if the loan is irregular for 20 days, penal interest calculation will be as follows;
Irregular amount – LKR 22,500/-
Irregular no. of days – 20 days
Penal interest = LKR 22,500/- * 2% * (20 days/365 days) = LKR 24.66
- Overdraft facilities / Cash Credit accounts
Limit – LKR 1,000,000/-
Drawing Power – LKR 1,000,000/-
Interest Rate – 12.50% p.a. (fixed)
Outstanding – LKR 1,100,000/-
Irregular amount- LKR 100,000/-
If the account is irregular for 20 days, penal interest calculation will be as follows;
Irregular amount – LKR 100,000/-
Irregular no. of days – 20 days
Penal interest = LKR 100,000/- * 2% * (20 days/365 days) = LKR 109.59
