Rule of 20 4 10

You should be able to pay 20% down payment now
You should be able to service the loan in 4 Years
Your car EMI should not be more than 10% of your in hand salary

Do the maths and take the call

Don’t think much. If you need then buy. Example: Jhunjhunwala. We keep planning for future and don’t enjoy present. Nobody knows what happens in future but that doesn’t mean you spend everything.

Arrey bhai I'm not angry, i just wanted to highlight that we should give informative suggestions that would help people and not just random reference and quotes since it won't help anyone.

I personally think, it's better to keep quite than give bad advices.

Apologies for sounding rude. Peace ☮️

It is advisable to buy the car only when you need it. If you do, you got to buy.

having car is an asset
buy second hand for now

Also it sucks how owning SUV in foreign is childsplay and it is considered luxury in India
shows how destitute India is

A car is not an asset. It’s value deteriorates with the passage of time. It just makes life easy like a mobile, home appliances or laptop

Which car? And it's cost?

Depends on the car you are planning to buy. If it's around or less than 10L then yes if it's more than 10L then you gotta plan your finance properly. If it's more than 15L then nope.

I dont have a car.. I crossed 12 lpa 3 years ago... I see people buying cars alot after the lockdown is over... More than two wheeler I see four wheeler on the road... I think of condition of public transport in my area, can I avoid traffic if I owe a car?, how much of money will go on its maintenance?, whether i will be able to use it to fullest in WFH? , is second hand a better option given the taxes n all?, Is cash in hand better than car in parking ? ,economic conditions don't look clear to me currently in India.. Salary growth & inflation, hiring/firing don't gives me confidence.. i have a two wheeler.. in case I need i book a cab..

Owing a car is your personal decision.

Recently I bought Hyundai Creta which costs me 13L on road.50% is towards down payment and rest is finance.

Lelo bhaiii maine to 8 lpa pe hi leli thi.. you should not kill your desires

I don't understand what you are talking about.

Buy used car and not go for new car

absolutely instead of buying trash new car better to buy a decent used car at the same price
