Methodology
How the numbers are produced
- Net amount receivedSanctioned amount − processing fee (+18% GST unless included) − insurance − other upfront charges − broken-period interest − instalments collected upfront. If the KFS states a lower net amount, that amount is used.
- APRThe monthly rate at which the remaining EMIs are worth exactly the net amount received, × 12. This is a plain IRR on a reducing balance, matching Annex B of RBI's KFS circular. It is shown with and without GST because lenders differ, and gaps of 0.25 points or less count as a match.
- Rule checksEach check compares your figures with a practice RBI has prohibited or a disclosure it requires. A finding is marked Proven only when your figures alone establish it; anything else is marked Confirm.
What LoanLens cannot tell you
- Whether the lender is registered with RBI. Check on RBI's website before borrowing.
- Anything outside the figures you enter. A wrong or missing KFS gives a wrong result.
- Legal advice. Findings are questions to put to the lender. Rules vary by lender type and change.
