ICICI Saral Rural Housing Loan Scheme

While a woman residing in a metropolitan city, with a stable job and financial security, can easily sanction a loan from a bank, what about those living in rural areas? For rural women, it proves challenging to apply for and, more importantly, repay a loan. This difficulty is not limited to women alone; even men residing in rural areas face problems in acquiring and repaying loans.

To address this issue, ICICI Bank, India’s largest private sector bank, has introduced the “Saral Rural Housing Loan.” It was launched on August 10, 2015. This innovative home loan offering comes with a special interest rate specifically designed for rural areas, benefiting women borrowers and individuals from economically weaker sections. The Saral Rural Housing Loan from ICICI Bank also provides credit facilities for customers looking to own, construct, repair, renovate, or upgrade a house in a rural area.
