Common reasons for Education Loan rejection in Hyderabad

Generally, when students try to approach lenders directly for an education loan they are faced with rejection. There are many reasons because of which banks can refuse to sanction a student loan 

  • Poor CIBIL scores: If the CIBIL Score of the co-applicant or the financial co-applicant doesn’t meet the CIBIL requirement of the bank the loan application gets rejected. Generally, the minimum required CIBIL by banks is 685 but in SBI it can go as low as 591 
  • Poor academic scores: If the applicant has poor academic scores in the past, it can affect the chances of getting the loan sanctioned 
    Chosen country for higher studies: Banks generally do not accept third-world countries as a destination for higher education.
  • Chosen course for higher studies: Banks usually prefer STEM courses over courses from other fields as the chances of employability are higher for STEM courses 
  • Insufficient documentation: Without the proper documentation banks cannot start your abroad education loan process. Hence, proper documentation and income proofs are required for an education loan to study overseas.

Radiology Student From Hyderabad Duped of Rs 25 Lakh in Loan Scam

Radiology student Bathula Venkata Subba Reddy, 34, has accused an acquaintance, Divakar Reddy, of cheating him out of Rs 25 lakh ($33,695). Subba Reddy filed a complaint with the Subramanyanagar police in Bengaluru, alleging that Divakar Reddy promised to secure a loan of Rs 1.5 crore ($202,044) for his master's course but failed to deliver.

Subba Reddy, met Divakar Reddy in August 2022, who claimed to have connections with a private finance firm in Hyderabad. Divakar Reddy convinced Subba Reddy to deposit Rs 25 lakh in order to gain the firm's trust. Subba Reddy made several payments between August and December 2022 but never received the promised loan, nor did he get his money back.

The police have registered a case against Divakar Reddy under IPC section 420 for cheating and dishonestly inducing the delivery of property. Subba Reddy, currently pursuing his master's degree in radiology in Chennai, hopes for justice in his case.

An investigation has been launched to bring the accused to justice and determine the truth behind the alleged loan scam.

Telangana State Government Boosts Medical Education, a potential increase in MBBS aspirants

Telangana's Health Minister T. Harish Rao disclosed that the state government invests significantly in medical education, offering generous financial aid of Rs 30 lakh for each MBBS student, Rs 45 lakh for postgraduate students, and Rs 75 lakh for super specialty medical students. The government aims to attract more students to pursue careers in medicine. 
Telangana already boasts an impressive ratio of 22 MBBS students per one lakh population and ranks second in the country with eight postgraduate medical students per one lakh population. The government's focus on medical education aligns with its mission to enhance the healthcare workforce's capabilities and cater to residents' medical needs.

By investing substantially in medical education, the government seeks to alleviate the financial burden on aspiring doctors and promote inclusivity in the healthcare sector. Financial aid is expected to attract more talented individuals to medical colleges, ensuring the availability of skilled healthcare professionals.

Telangana's dedicated approach to nurturing medical talent and improving healthcare accessibility positions it to realize its vision of becoming the number one state in doctor count. This commitment reflects the government's mission to ensure equal access to quality medical services for all residents, ultimately enhancing the overall health and well-being of the population.

Telangana Gears Up for Second Phase of Rs 1 Lakh Subsidy Loan Scheme for Minorities

Telangana's State government is in active preparation for the rollout of the second phase of its unique 100 percent subsidy loan program tailored for minorities. According to officials from the Minority Welfare Department, the Telangana Minority Finance Corporation is presently in the process of disbursing Rs 1 lakh to each of the 14,300 applicants. An allocation of Rs 153 crore has been set aside for this phase, with District Collectors and District Minority Welfare Officers entrusted to oversee its seamless implementation.


Officials highlight that the smooth execution of the initial phase has paved the way for this subsequent leg of the subsidy scheme for minorities. During the inaugural phase, the government allocated and disbursed Rs 100 crore, providing checks of Rs 1 lakh to 10,000 minority beneficiaries on August 19.


In this initiative, the government aims to extend subsidies to around 120 eligible individuals from minority communities within each assembly constituency.

 

Telangana and Andhra Pradesh Top the Charts in Foreign Education with 12.5% Contribution

Telangana and Andhra Pradesh stand out in Indian overseas education, contributing 12.5% of Indian students studying abroad, as per the "Beyond Beds & Boundaries: Indian Student Mobility Report 2023." Most students from these states head to the US, Canada, Australia, and the UK, while emerging destinations like Germany, Kyrgyzstan, Ireland, Singapore, Russia, the Philippines, France, and New Zealand are also gaining popularity.

The surge in student mobility is driven by promising financial prospects, research opportunities, and diverse courses offered by foreign universities. These institutions favor a flexible, multi-disciplinary approach, fostering global networking and cultural exposure.

The report notes a significant rise in the number of Indian students abroad. In 2019, 10.9 lakh Indian students studied abroad, increasing to 13.24 lakh in 2022, with a projected 20 lakh students by 2025. Spending on overseas education is expected to grow from $37 billion in 2019 to $70 billion by 2025.

Yet, challenges persist within the Indian higher education system. Indian universities struggle to achieve global recognition, and capacity limitations require the establishment of numerous new institutions to accommodate the growing number of students. Furthermore, outdated curricula call for a more job-oriented approach to education.
