If property documents or other originals were deposited as security, ask the lender for the exact inventory it holds before collection. Match every original against that list. Do not sign a blanket acknowledgement that all documents were returned if an item is missing or visibly damaged.
RBI’s responsible-lending framework contains requirements for covered regulated entities on release of original property documents and removal of registered charges after full repayment or settlement. Apply the rule to your actual lender and security structure; do not assume every education loan involved property collateral.
