Fullerton India Credit Co. Ltd. is Now SMFG India Credit Co. Ltd.

Teaching is one of the noblest professions as per our history and heritage. Teachers are also referred to as “Guru” - one to be always respected, obeyed, and revered. We credit our Teachers with great qualities, but they too have to earn a living & fulfill their responsibilities. Earning a livelihood is as important for them as for a common man. A teacher also has to look after a family & meet social & financial commitments. Financial Commitment may include settling of old debts, or a medical emergency, a child’s marriage, vacation, renovation/redecoration of their house, or even for higher education, say a Ph.D. So to help teachers out, and to give them a helping hand, as they so very often give us, we at SMFG India Credit provides loan for teachers at very attractive rates and tenure.

Finance is now easily available in the form of a Personal Loan for Teachers to fulfill their Personal needs. Most Banks now categorize Teachers as a preferred segment for the distribution of Personal Loans funds via a Personal Loan and here at SMFG India Credit, the personal loan interest rates are also very competitive, starting at a low rate of 13%*.

A Teacher, single-handedly is responsible for shaping the life of an individual, outside of the home environment. The Teacher shows his/her students the first view of the outside world & has the power to shape their minds. Thus it becomes the responsibility of the teacher to ensure that students grow up to be responsible and dependable citizens who contribute positively to society. We, at SMFG India Credit, wish to extend our hands to Teachers and to help and support them in their time of need as they have always been with us.
