Understanding How Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan Differs from Other Secured Loans
Unlike other secured loans that require more paperwork and longer processing times, a gold loan gives you access to funds often within the same day of application. It is ideal when you need money urgently for personal needs like medical expenses, education fees, or family events.
What is a gold loan?
Understanding what is a gold loan is very important to make the best use of your existing assets. A gold loan is a type of loan where you give your gold jewellery as security. In return, you receive money based on the weight and purity of the gold. The best part is that you do not have to sell your jewellery. You simply keep it safe with Bajaj Finance during the loan period. Once you repay the full amount, your gold is returned to you in its original condition. With Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan, you can get funds starting from Rs.5,000 to Rs. 2 crore at competitive interest rates and convenient repayment tenures.
Easy process and simple requirements
The entire process is very easy and quick. All you need is your 18-22 karat gold jewellery and any one of the basic KYC documents for verification. Having a high credit score or complex income statements not mandatory for this loan, though for loans above Rs.5 lakh you may be asked to submit your PAN card details. This makes a gold loan suitable for many people—whether you are self-employed, a housewife, or even without a fixed income. Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan makes it accessible and stress-free. You can use our Gold Loan Calculator to assess your loan eligibility and determine suitable repayment options.
Understanding the rate of interest against gold loan
The rate of interest against gold loan is the amount you pay along with the borrowed money. Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan offers competitive interest rates that help keep your repayments low. You can choose a repayment option that suits your needs. You can choose to repay the interest on monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or annual basis, with any pending interest or principal to be paid by the end of the tenure. The flexibility makes repayment easy and manageable.
How gold loans differ from other secured loans
Unlike other secured loans, such as home or car loans, gold loans do not involve a complex documentation process. There is no long waiting time or lengthy paperwork. Other secured loans are for specific needs, and usually last for years. A gold loan is quick to get and can be used for any personal reason. The repayment period is short, ranging from as low as 1 day to 12 months, giving you more control and less stress.
Safe storage and fast approval with Bajaj Finance
In other secured loans, your house or vehicle remains locked as collateral until the loan ends. But with a gold loan, your jewellery stays safe in a secure locker with Bajaj Finance. Their vaults are protected with CCTV and 24x7 surveillance. You can walk into any branch with your gold, get it valued, and receive the money mostly within the same day to your bank account.
A smart and flexible choice
So, if you are still asking what is gold loan, think of it as a fast, safe, and smart way to get funds without selling your jewellery. With Bajaj Finserv Gold Loan, you enjoy trust, safety, and full control over your repayment plan. Whenever you need money, your gold can help you—simply Download the Bajaj Finserv App or visit a Bajaj Finance branch and get started.

Release Rs 4.5K crore rural infra fund, CM Stalin urges Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman
CHENNAI: Chief Minister MK Stalin on Tuesday urged Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to give early approval for releasing Rs 4,500 crore under the NABARD's Rural Infrastructure Development Fund for the current financial year and Rs 350 crore under the Fisheries Infrastructure Development Fund (FIDF) for the expansion of the Kolachel fishing harbour. Tamil Nadu Finance Minister Thangam Thennarasu handed over Stalin's letter in this regard to Sitharaman in New Delhi. He was accompanied by DMK parliamentary party leader and MP Kanimozhi. Both met Sitharaman in the Parliament House. Referring to Thennarasu's meeting with Sitharaman, Stalin wrote on X platform, 'The fishermen from Kanniyakumari district met me and requested to start the works on the extension of Colachel harbour soon. I hope the union minister will accept this fair request from Tamil Nadu and release the funds necessary.' Thennarasu is in New Delhi to attend the crucial meeting of the state ministerial committee on Wednesday to put forth the union government's proposal for sweeping GST reforms that will slash tax rates, which may lead to a reduction in prices of items commonly used by the public.

MTC to privatise ticket collection on diesel buses
CHENNAI: A month after privatising ticket collection in recently-launched electric buses under a gross cost contract (GCC), the MTC has decided to privatise ticket collection for its regular diesel buses running from 31 depots within and outside Chennai. A total of 1,172 conductors will be hired through private agencies, with a monthly salary of Rs 26,750, inclusive of insurance, PF and other benefits. Another 1,020 drivers will be recruited to operate regular buses across the city. All tickets are to be issued only through electronic ticketing machines. Tenders have been invited for appointing a total of 2,192 drivers and conductors. There are 3,000 vacancies for the posts of driver and conductor in MTC, according to trade unions. At present, out of 3,200 buses, nearly 400 remain off the road due to crew shortages, lack of spare parts and other reasons. The induction of 2,192 additional staff is expected to bring around 300 more buses into operation. MTC Managing Director T Prabhushankar said temporary conductors have already been engaged in ticket collection for some time. 'With a large number of drivers and conductors retiring in recent months, we decided not to cut services,' he said.

YSRTUC vows to oppose VSP privatisation
Guntur: The YSR Trade Union Congress categorically rejected the privatisation of the steel plant and committed to a fierce struggle alongside workers and public unions to protect their livelihoods, said YSRTUC president Poonuru Gautham Reddy. Addressing the media at the YSRCP central office in Tadepalli, he declared that the previous YSRCP government's staunch opposition had stalled privatisation for five years, but the coalition government's inaction has worsened workers' plight. He demanded Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, and Minister Lokesh honour their election promises to save the plant, accusing them of indifference as the NDA accelerated privatisation of 32 departments by September 9, 2025. The coalition's policies have crippled the plant, employing 20,000 workers: 1,150 have been removed via Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS), with notices for 1,000 more, totalling 8,000-9,000 layoffs across all categories in a year. Salaries remain unpaid since September 2024, benefits like leave encashment, incentives, LTC, and LLTC have been scrapped, and electricity rates in plant quarters have surged from 49 paise to Rs 8 per unit, displacing workers. He condemned dismantling of a 1,300-day protest tent and erecting a police post to suppress dissent, contrasting this with YSRCP's support under former Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, who engaged workers directly, passed an Assembly resolution against privatisation, wrote to the Centre to convert loans into equity, and refrained from filing cases against protesters.
