Cash Credit Interest Calculator — see the cost of daily utilisation.
Cash credit interest is usually charged on the amount used, not the full sanctioned limit. Use this calculator to estimate cost for planning.
How CC interest is charged
A CC account usually charges interest on daily utilised balance. If you use Rs 4 Cr out of a Rs 10 Cr limit, interest is calculated on the utilised amount, not the full sanction.
The true cost also includes processing, renewal, documentation, insurance, valuation and guarantee charges where applicable.
