I applied for a loan against my NSC with a bank. During the process, I was assured that the loan would be approved, and I even paid stamp duty charges as part of the paperwork. However, now the bank is delaying and seems hesitant to process it, citing reasons they didnβt mention before.
I would like to understand:
1. Can a bank legally refuse an NSC-backed loan after charging stamp duty?
2. If they deny the loan, how can I ensure a smooth and quick return of my NSC?
3. Do I have any rights or options if I feel misled by the bankβs representatives?
Any guidance on what steps I can take next would be greatly appreciated.
