Credit Card
Summary: The most appealing feature of credit cards is the EMI conversion facility, which allows you to convert big-ticket purchases into manageable EMIs and avoid high interest rates on credit card debt. Here's how to leverage this feature to your best advantage.
There are many reasons that might lead to accumulating credit card debt, which, if not paid on time, can attract significant interest expenses.
Through credit card EMIs, that’s how.
Yes, you heard it right! Besides the regular credit card benefits like reward points, discounts, privileges, etc., you also get the EMI conversion facility. With this service, you can convert your outstanding credit card debt into affordable EMIs for easy repayment.
Intrigued? Let’s understand in detail.
The credit card EMI facility allows you to convert your credit card bill into affordable EMIs to repay the outstanding debt without hurting your budget.
The EMI facility is usually allowed in two cases. Have a look -
If a single transaction involves a big-ticket purchase, you can convert the purchase into easy EMIs. For instance, say you buy a refrigerator worth ₹40,000 and cannot pay the cost upfront. You can convert this purchase into credit card EMIs and pay for it in small amounts over a specified tenure.
Also called balance conversion, in this case, you convert your aggregate credit card bill into affordable EMIs rather than in a single transaction. For instance, if you rack up a credit card bill of ₹20,000 and you can’t pay it in one go, you can convert the balance into EMIs. You can pay in small amounts over a specified tenure.
Whether it is a single purchase or the whole credit card bill, you can exercise the EMI option at the time of the transaction (for a single purchase) or at the time of the credit card bill payment (balance conversion).
There is a choice of flexible tenures offered by credit card issuers, including Metra Trust. You can select a tenure which gives you the most affordable EMIs without hurting your budget.
In most cases, interest is charged on the amount converted to EMIs. To repay the debt, you pay both interest and principal over the chosen tenure.
For instance, suppose you have a credit card bill of Rs 30,000 which you convert into EMIs. Other details -
Repayment tenure |
6 months |
Applicable interest rate |
12% p.a. (just for reference) |
EMI payable per month |
₹5,176 |
So, instead of paying ₹30,000 in one go, you pay ₹5,176 over the next 6 months to repay your credit card dues.
