What happens if a person prepays their credit card EMI?
Foreclosing a credit card EMI involves settling the facility before the agreed repayment period ends. Once a person processes the closure, the remaining monthly instalments are cancelled, and interest that would have accrued during the rest of the tenure is no longer payable. However, the person still needs to pay the outstanding principal, along with applicable foreclosure charges and taxes.

How does FD laddering give returns without locking away all money?
FD laddering means splitting our savings across fixed deposits with different maturity periods. For instance, βΉ5,00,000 can be divided among 1-year, 2-year and 3-year FDs. As each FD matures, the money becomes available without breaking other deposits. This can provide regular liquidity, allow reinvestment at prevailing rates and reduce the risk of locking all money into one interest-rate cycle.
