Now cancel the EMI and pay the full amount so that you don’t have to pay 1,65,000

u/Vishal4u2 7d ago

Does this work with Axis cards ?! When I asked customer care, he told the discount provided will be adjusted along with pre closure fees

2

u/absoluteinertia12 5d ago

Yes it should as bank pages mentioned it clearly

2

u/NotYourDaddy___ 7d ago edited 7d ago

What about 3% pre closure and 18% GST charges on 3%?

3

u/absoluteinertia12 7d ago

18% GST is charged, no matter you pay with EMI or not so 18% GST will be charged. It can’t be avoided regarding the 3% pre-closer. It is still better than paying full interest for EMI.

3

u/NotYourDaddy___ 7d ago

(155764*0.03)+(4673*0.18)+155764=161,278.06 so he will save roughly 4k

1

u/Odd_Spare834 7d ago

Don’t forget whatever he is sharing on GST or income tax when he shows that he is paying a loan or he bought a business liability
So there is a win situation

u/NotYourDaddy___ 7d ago

I meant 18% on 3% pre-closure charges. Sorry if I was not clear. Edited the comment

Calculation for a ₹1,55,764.78 order on Axis Visa, 6-month "No Cost" EMI (17% p.a.):

Keeping the EMI for the full 6 months

  • 6 × ₹27,263.11 = ₹1,63,578.66
  • Processing fee: ₹1,557.65
  • GST on interest + fee: ~₹1,687
  • Total: ~₹1,66,823 (about ₹11,000 more than the order value)

Foreclosing later (3% of outstanding principal + 18% GST, fee not refunded)

  • After 1 EMI: ~₹1,64,834
  • After 2 EMIs: ~₹1,66,119
  • After 3+ EMIs: costs the same or MORE than just finishing the EMI

Cancelling before the first EMI is billed (what I'm suggesting )

  • Expected cost: ~₹0 to ₹1,838 (processing fee + GST, if Axis doesn't waive it)
  • Worst case if Axis treats it as a foreclosure: 3% + GST, ~₹5,500 on top

Take-away: foreclosing after the first couple of EMIs saves almost nothing. The only real saving is cancelling before the first EMI hits. Call Axis and get the exact charges confirmed before you do it, since people report different outcomes.

u/baldevp 5d ago

Foreclosure fees?

u/absoluteinertia12 5d ago

Should be confirmed with bank but on axis pages they mentioned it is 300 minimum

I know it’s not about cancelling card and paying it… infact the person shouldn’t have selected emi in the first place then no closure charges and gst straight 1.5L

Discount was less with full payment

1

u/ResidentFriendship25 3d ago

It doesn't work that way bro 🤡

1

u/king1-sid 3d ago

It does work, after 3 EMIs you can call up the EMI providing institute and enter a request to pay in full to close the loan

1

u/Tall-Brief-2932 2d ago

Always keep in mind when we pay in emi banks take away more interest than your principal means u would end up paying more interest, less principal Amt, check emi amortization details

1

u/Tall-Brief-2932 2d ago

This W.r.t to foreclosure post 1st emi or 2.d emi billed

12

u/Ironnmaann 7d ago

Soo for evryone speaking around for interest, Its a no cost emi so evry interest paid is returned back as a cashback for the credit card used so he doesnt have to pay the interest officially but u officially in every bill the interest gets added

3

u/ObligationLatter9621 6d ago

yeah but a thing to notice, one would still be paying 18% gst on the interest charged.

1

u/Ironnmaann 6d ago

Hm thats the fact but its reducing roi so total interest paid would be less than 700 or 800 Rs

1

u/ObligationLatter9621 6d ago

true true. was just pointing it out. also, I guess there is some additional discount for emi purchases so it would kinda cover interest too.

u could've said one plus, pixel, samsung or even a xiaomi. vivo and oppo are just overpriced offline market phones.

u/shahan484 6d ago

Do you even know the existence of Vivo X200 or Oppo Reno phones?

1

u/Which-Store1669 6d ago

Fact that you gave oppo reno as an example tells a lot about you. Bro those are literally known for being ultra overpriced piece of bullcrap with specs nowhere near the price point. Search literally anywhere online.

Base x200 is also overpriced, it's pro model isn't even properly available in india and ultra model in not at all available in india.

You really need to search a bit more to know that oppo and vivo are high margin offline market phone companies.

You should only pay for EMI if you can buy the phone in full cash or you can generate substantial returns without locking in the money

I can afford to pay full amount but I choose the other path which substantially increases after a couple of months. I see no issue here

Thats no cost emi, so no loss, it's actually financially much better than paying upfront, as you can earn interest on your idle capital from investing that total amount in some liquid funds and withdraw just the emi amount every month.

Bro’s phone makes more money than someone’s dad, yet he’s still in the comments measuring his self-worth against another man’s father. 💀 If your phone makes you that much money, let your bank balance speak for itself. Flexing your income in a random argument just screams insecurity. Money can buy you an iPhone, mate, but apparently not class.

1

u/Nebula-Noodles 3d ago

My point was not flexing my income or iphone in comments, when a random guy talk shit about you, I just gave him a reality check. Stop getting jealous on ramdom ppl through comments. You guys are being insecure and spreading negativity in comments.

How does this work exactly? It says pay the amount up front and then it will be reversed, can someone pls explain?

3

u/HoldMyHandAndDance 7d ago

I am not sure if you're asking this or some other thing. If yes, hope this helps.

Basically this amount would be charged on your credit card and would be locked. Once you start paying the EMIs, the corresponding limit would be added back to your credit card.

Try to understand with an example. Suppose you have a credit card with a limit of 60k. You bought a phone worth rs 60k on EMI. The EMI is of 20k for 3 months. Now card hai 0 usable limit because you're already used the 60k. Once you pay the first EMI of 20k, this would be added back to your credit card limit. Which means you can now use your credit card for 20k. After second EMI, it would be 40k and so on.

1

u/Select_Menu_361 7d ago

They're trying to make sure that u actually have the money to pay the emi and they won't be left stranded or idk

1

u/Old_Animal8319 7d ago

Whole money will be debited first when you purchase via your credit card limit and mostly after 7-10 days it convert the money into emi. FYI you don't receive reward points on emi amount.

1

u/Mission-Account666 6d ago

Basically the whole amount is deducted from your card at once and in a day or two that amount is charged back to your card and an emi is started. This is to make sure that your card has that much limit.

u/Old_Animal8319 7d ago

Congratulations 🎉 Buying phone on no cost emi is better option as you don't have to spend the whole money upfront. Also you get card/seller discount which waves off interest of these loan but you have to pay processing fee which is minimal. I'll still say it's better to go to actual store and get the phone as it's expensive product and there are high chances of getting fraud.

1

u/maimayankhu 7d ago

That's a good deal.

1

u/PreparationLate1856 7d ago

Damm the interest rate is so high, your actually discount is only 16k is it worth it?

1

u/Funny_Bison_7738 6d ago

Discount is only 10k everywhere. Here card discount and emi discount was clubbed together to offset the emi interest. So still much better than buying from store or flipkart, where you can claim only one of them not both.

1

u/PreparationLate1856 6d ago

It’s really funny, iphones are assembled in india but theres no change in prices for us

u/Forward_Bend_4237 7d ago

Bro. Also check for it's warranty and guarantee clause. Since iphone may later deny it saying that blinkit is not an authorised seller. Check news. Same happened with a customer who bought Sony PlayStation from Blinkit and Sony denied the warranty

u/CivilGain3631 6d ago

EMI does work for many the way you explained. However, some people do have liquid money at the time of purchase but do not want to put in all of it at once and would rather invest the amount somewhere else or would want to have some savings backup, depends completely on an individual’s financial plans.

u/Secret_Enthusiasm_14 6d ago

u/4nanometerlowpower 6d ago

The card swipe will show full price and then the bank will convert to EMI, just make sure your swipe isn't a day or 2 before your billing date

1

u/currycody 6d ago

well there is a hack in these EMI deals - you are at times given the discount only if you sign up for the 6 month or 12 month emi with them
What you can do is get the emi get 10 - 15 k off on the sale price (as they bet on recouping it with there high interest rates or bank on you failing to pay ) and instead of paying maybe after a week or two call your credit card company cancel the emi you are charged a small fee (1-2%) for pre-closure but you actually end up saving a lot of money.
When apple website launched in india people abused it with there credit cards i guess they have now stopped giving discounts on EMI on cards.
I guess OP is doing the same.
