Can you get loans against NRE Term Deposits?
The maximum limit of loan you can take is fixed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) at Rs 20 lakhs. However, there are certain limitations put forward by the RBI where you cannot use the loans taken from your term deposit account. The purposes for which you cannot use the loan include:
* Re-lending.
* To carry out investments on agricultural or plantation activities.
* Investment in real estate business.
If you want to carry on with some other investment requirement in India then you can take loan against your NRE fixed deposits. They can be used for investments on non-repatriable basis in certain specified areas as well as in buying flats and houses subject to some prerequisites.

You can maintain a NRE Term Deposit accounts for a period of 1 year to 3 years. However, you can close your term deposit NRE account prematurely if you need to do so. While closing, you should keep in mind that no interests will be payable if you close the account before one year of opening the account.
If you close the account after an year of opening your account then the interest rate either on the date of deposit or on the date of closure, whichever less is payable. The rate of interest payable, however, by no means will exceed the contracted rate.
