Factors Affecting Gold Loan Eligibility at Manappuram

  • Gold’s Value: Gold rates are volatile and subject to change based on market conditions. Your loan amount is calculated based on the current market price of your gold. To receive the best amount, you can apply when the gold prices are high.
  • Gold’s Purity: Higher purity gold (18-24 karats) leads to a higher loan amount and vice versa.
  • Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV): This ratio is fixed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). It determines the loan amount to be provided against the gold. We offer a high LTV of up to 75% of your gold’s value.
  • Repayment Capacity: A good and timely repayment history can also increase your chances of faster loan approvals.
