Banks Offering Zero Processing Fee Personal Loans in 2026 and How to Avail Them
In 2026, several banks offer personal loans with zero processing fees, often during limited-time promotions or festive seasons. Such waivers reduce upfront borrowing costs but may not cover other charges like stamp duty or late-payment penalties. IDFC FIRST Bank is highlighted for its zero-fee offer on loans ranging from ₹50,000 to ₹15 lakh, with interest rates starting at 9.99% per annum. Borrowers are advised to compare offers, check eligibility, and inquire directly with lenders for possible fee waivers.
