The loan is financed against the On-Road Price of the vehicle only, with accessories excluded, and margin requirements are 10% of the on-road price for loans up to ₹25 lakh and 20% above that. The loan is restricted to personal use and not available for commercial or hiring purposes, and hypothecation is registered on the VAHAN portal; personal guarantee is waived for loans up to ₹25 lakh.
The maximum loan amount is ₹2 crore, with a maximum tenure of 84 months.

At 7.65%, Central Bank of India has one of the lowest starting rates of the 12 lenders we track for new car loans.
Used-car loans price higher than new-car loans because of the collateral risk — see the separate used-car page. Salary-account customers often get a small rate discount on new cars.
Every row is date-stamped with the day we last checked it, and links to the lender’s published material so you can confirm it yourself. A row we confirmed against the source reads “Verified”; one we could only sight reads “as of”, and is not presented as confirmed. Anything we have not re-checked in 60 days is marked “rate under review” rather than left to look current. We do not claim a fixed re-checking cycle — the date on each row is the honest answer.
No. Viewing rates is not a credit enquiry and has no score impact. A hard enquiry happens only when you formally apply to a lender.
