What applies to this exact problem

For loans sanctioned or renewed on or after 1 January 2026, RBI’s 2025 pre-payment directions prohibit pre-payment charges on covered floating-rate loans to individuals for non-business purposes. The directions also cover specified business-purpose loans to individuals and MSEs, subject to lender type and other conditions. Other cases can follow the regulated entity’s disclosed policy. Do not apply one generic foreclosure-fee percentage to every loan.
