The convenience of paying back the money to the credit card or the lending company in easy instalments gives the financial freedom to manage funds without putting an extra burden. This facility of EMI so far has been easily available only via credit card.

The EMI facility provided by KMBL is subject to RBI guidelines and terms and conditions may change depending upon the change in rules and regulations by the RBI.
