A.Dear Client,
In this situation, you are liable to pay the loan amount along with EMIs. However, you can explain your financial situation to the creditor/HDFC Corporation and request a more viable repayment plan. It is important to examine the provisions of your agreement to understand the remedies available in the situations of financial crunch. Further, you can also ask for an extension in the time period to repay the loan amount. You can contact the manager of the bank, explain your issue, and get further assistance on the same.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.

A.Dear Client,
Once a borrower fails to repay his debt, the Lenders/FIs initiate a routine course of action for recovery of the loan/debt from the borrower. You may negotiate or settle your dues against loans by following the steps like lowering your interest rate, arranging for a reduced interest rate is one of the most common requests a defaulter borrower can make to the Bank, creating or restructuring a repayment plan or extending the tenure of repayment of a loan, looking for debt forgiveness. considering loan consolidation, offering a one-time settlement payment. Following these steps, you may write an application requesting for settlement of dues to the concerned Bank stating why you cannot repay your outstanding dues lying against the loans. Also, write that you want to explore alternative repayment terms. Specify the amount that you can pay, as well as what you expect from the creditor Bank in return. A good starting point for negotiation could be offering around 30% of the amount that you owe. But all your attempts solely depend upon the discretion of the Lenders. But sometimes it's typically done through third parties like debt relief companies, which you may hire to negotiate the settlement matter with the lender on your behalf. With this method, you will make payments to the debt settlement company rather than your creditors/lenders, along with any fees. Debt settlement is an agreement between a lender and a borrower in which the borrower repays a portion of a loan balance and the lender forgives the remainder. You may consider starting the negotiation by offering to pay 25% or 30% of your outstanding balance in return for forgiveness on the rest. But, it may be noted that while there are legitimate debt relief/settlement companies, there are also many scam operations. So, if you're considering one, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau(CFPB) suggests for contacting your state attorney general's office and local consumer protection agency to ask if they have any consumer complaints on file about that company. Some states require that debt settlement companies be licensed, which may provide some added protection. Although a debt settlement can offload some of your financial crisis, there are also a few potential risks and downsides to consider. First, a debt settlement will affect your credit score. That will make it more difficult for you to get credit or good interest rates in the future. Another potential drawback is that when you settle debt, you could face tax consequences. Finally, when you settle a debt your account is closed once the settlement is complete. So you could potentially have no credit facility owing to your poor credit score. Further, a quick counselling session with a certified credit counsellor can help you to discover your options and choose the right path forward to settle the debts/loan with the Bank.
