What applies to this exact problem

Check these first

• 2. Request the NOC through an authenticated channel: Use the lender app, registered email or branch process. Include the loan account, final payment date and request for a closure/no-dues letter.
• 3. Get a complaint or service-request number: If the NOC does not arrive, move from informal calls to a traceable grievance. Ask for the expected delivery mode and whether any unresolved balance blocks closure.
