I was the 4th Person in the sheet, 3rd person was not there, So I have completed my certificate verification. Then he asked me to go to the floor where the interviews were happening.
I reached that floor and sat in the interview line. By the time I reach there, No 1 and completed and no 2 enter into the room. I am the next person. Feeling tension. No 2 came out and I asked how was the interview. She told like its going on very interactively.
My turn came now.
after 3 min, the bell rang and the person sitting outside asked me to go.
I opened the door and asked them ” May I come in sir” they said “come in”

I reached to the hot chair and wished “Good morning mam and Good morning Sirs”

I replied as “PML 2002”. He appreciated.
m3: Do you NPAs?
Me: Started explaining. Then he stopped immediately.
M3: Do banks charge interest on the loan once it turns as NPA?
Me: As per my knowledge, Once the loan becomes NPA, there will not be any interest added. But the person comes to clear the loan, then banks collects interest for whole period.
F1: Do you know House loan?
Me: Yes Mam.
F1: Why banks charges for pre closure of a home loan ?
Me: Not all the banks, Few banks charges. Bank has approved his load for 15-20 years tenure. Now the person comes to pay the loan after 5 years, Banks are loosing good customers who are repaying regularly. Also banks loose chance to cross sell any product.
F1: We can give that amount to a new customer and gain interest right?
Me: Yes mam, But we are losing a good customer. For new customer, Banks have money to approve new load.
seems like she was ok with my answer and asked do you have home loan. Answered no.
