Have Rs 1,199? You can own a Nano
As Tata Motors gears up to launch the world's cheapest car Nano later this year, financing companies, including ICICI Bank, SBI Bank, HDFC Bank and Saraswat Bank, are busy charting out attractive finance schemes to woo the buyers. The Mumbai-based Saraswat Bank is offering a loan of Rs 70,000 at a monthly installment of a mere Rs 1,199 spread comfortably across 84 months or 7 years. The rate of interest is 11-11.5 per cent, which is cheaper than a two wheeler loan. The Nano has already driven these companies to look beyond the two-wheeler market, which has lately shown a huge slowdown.
