Borrowers should ensure that they give careful consideration before opting for a moratorium relief since it could result in financial stress if not planned well. The moratorium is primarily a deferment of loan repayment for a few months as against being a waiver. Banks can continue to charge interest on the unpaid loan amount during the moratorium. Therefore, it is best to go for it only if one is unable to pay the EMI.
