What would you be doing ?

I am a salaried and I have a personal loan emi of 23000 and the loan is pending for 2 more years.

I have an option to close this by paying the complete amount now which would be around 5.5 lakh.

Should I try and close loan first or allow the emi to continue and invest the remaining investable money from the salary ? Or any other suggestions

Let’s go to fundamentals and understand.

It’s a personal loan, I am assuming rate of interest would be > 9%

If your investments can make returns > personal loan interest, yes you should. If not, no point dragging the loan and keep an extra liability.

At the same time, you should check on pre-closure charges.

Yes the rate of interest is around 11%

I personally hate having loans so would opt for closing the loan. However, excel/financial sense might or might not siggest otherwise

How do you decide if you should pre close the loan or invest the bonus

I need some insight into what are the factors that one thinks about when deciding it. I have an ongoing personal loan with around 10.4% interest rate, 14 pending EMIs. EMI is ≈15% of my income.
