How to choose a loan in Nepal

Loan pricing in Nepal works differently from many countries. Here's what to check before you borrow:

1

Understand base + premium: Your lending rate is the bank's base rate plus a fixed premium. Both are published — compare the combined effective rate.

2

Compare the effective rate, not the premium: A low premium on a high base rate can cost more than a higher premium on a low base. Always compare the total.

3

Check the LTV and amount: How much you can borrow depends on the loan-to-value cap (e.g. up to 80% for a first home, 60% for vehicles) set by NRB.

4

Add up the fees: Processing fees are capped at 0.75%, and prepayment/swap charges apply on larger loans — factor these into the true cost.

5

Fixed vs floating: Fixed promos give rate certainty for a period; floating rates move with the bank's monthly base rate. Pick for your risk appetite.

6

Your premium is frozen: Once a loan is taken, NRB rules mean only the base rate can change — the bank cannot raise your premium later.

Types of loans

Nepal's banks offer a full range of retail and business loans, each with its own rate and LTV rules.

Home Loan

Finance a house or apartment, with LTV up to 80% for first-time buyers. Many banks offer fixed promos below 7.5%.

Auto Loan

Buy a private vehicle with LTV up to 60% (also 60% for EVs). Tenors typically run up to 7 years.

Personal Loan

Multi-purpose consumer borrowing, secured or collateral-free. Digital instant loans are increasingly common.

Education Loan

Fund higher or technical education at home or abroad, sometimes with government interest subsidy.

Business / SME Loan

Working capital and term loans for businesses, priced by sector (manufacturing, trading, service).

Gold Loan

Quick borrowing against gold collateral, typically up to 70–80% of value, with fast disbursement.

Margin / Share Loan

Borrow against your shares (loan against shares) to invest. NRB caps it at 70% of the lower of the 180-day average or market price, up to NPR 250 million per borrower.
