Why is the Indian government not extending Moratorium? How can middle-class people pay EMI?

Moratorium


Sekhar Mahalingam

The government might have thought that the pandemic situation will be for a quite short time. So, the RBI permitted moratorium initially.

A moratorium is a facility allowed to the borrowers who haven't planned for such eventualities, and they were to be temporarily relieved from paying EMI without getting the account classified as NPA and also without affecting the credit score. But it has an inherent cost of interest for a long period, that is - the EMIs are collected after the expiry of the full repayment period.

Of course, The pandemic situation is beyond anyone's control and no one would have expected the impact on the economic development and loss of income and job.

The benefits or gain to the borrowers is the only deferment of the EMI for the permitted period but it is not to be construed as a waiver of EMIs for the period.

It is really serious of course but if the EMI which comprises interest is not paid what will happen to the bank from where the borrowers have borrowed the money.

First of all, EMI consists of principal and interest and it is necessary to know what is the banking function. So that it can be understood the impact of waiver of the interest on the loan if at all permitted.

Banks pool the savings from the people as saving a deposit and fixed deposit, by offering interest at a certain percentage and the funds raised by the banks are distributed as loans at the rate of interest slightly higher than the rate of interest payable to the depositors, to cover the administrative expenses and profit to be paid as a dividend to the shareholders.

Now let us assume that the interest on the loans is waived, then how the banks can pay the interest on the deposit. If the banks pay interest from their own capital then is it possible to survive at all.

Most of the people deposited money with the bank, particularly senior citizens, depending on the interest earned on the deposits for their livelihood. Click here

Extension of the moratorium is the call of RBI, not Govt. However, RBI should come out with a framework soon. It has already given a 6-month moratorium. It has already formed a committee to design restructuring which will give a report soon. Once done you will have relief.

Extension of Moratorium - no CASH with Banks / NBFCs. How are Banks going to pay for Maturing FDs during the period?

Extension of Moratorium - Does not mean Interest meter stops. Cumulative Interest Burden will increase.

Makes sense not to Extend Moratorium.

The moratorium cannot be endless. The middle class should factor in the loss of income as one of the risks while incurring EMI liability.

Don’t pay. If one has no money even moratorium will not help. Better demand for all loan writes off.
