Got a new credit card. Have 0%APR for a year. Do I understand correctly that this means I can spend up to cc limit this year and only pay it off in 12 months? I.e. free loan for 30k if that’s my limit

Yes, you would have to pay monthly minimum though.

You can’t have late payments just because there’s no interest. If you don’t pay the monthly minimum it’ll impact your credit

It's an interest free EMI, effectively, with a monthly payment.

From which bank if I may ask?

I made a mistake starting SIP in a ULIP. Used to invest 7500 per month starting from November 2018. I have discontinued my premium payments since last year. That is when my fund was moved to an interim surrender state and now it earns 4% per annum interest.

After 5 years of lock-in that is November 2023, can i withdraw the entire amount at a time? (Of course after paying surrender charges)
