FAQs

PNB offers personal loans of up to Rs 20 lakh. Your personal loan amount eligibility depends on your income, repayment capacity, credit score, occupation profile and other aspects of your credit profile.

Once a personal loan is approved and disbursed, you cannot increase your loan amount. You may check with the bank and see if you can apply for a new personal loan, subject to eligibility and repayment capacity. Otherwise, consider another lender for a new personal loan.

PNB levies processing fees of up to 1% of the loan amount.

PNB has not explicitly mentioned the disbursal period for a personal loan. However, the disbursement process usually takes 2 to 7 working days, depending on the documentation and verification process of a lender.

You can track your loan status online through PNB’s NetBanking, mobile app, or by contacting the customer care team.
