When managing a loan against gold, you have various repayment options. The Interest-Only EMI option allows you to pay just the interest monthly and the principal at the end. Partial Principal Repayment lets you repay the principal in parts, reducing your interest burden. Easy Monthly Instalments (EMIs) spread your payments evenly over time.
