Electronic Clearance System (ECS): This mode is very popular and most of the borrowers opted for this mode of repaying the loan. It is an electronic mode for transferring the EMI from borrower's bank to lender's bank.

National Automated Clearing House (NACH): NACH is a facility offered by National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) for online transfer of funds on due date. This system has come into force recently and is preferred by many people. The benefit of this mode is that it allows transactions to be processed in real time.

Standing Instruction (SI): It is an order or instruction which the account holder gives to his/ her bank to pay a fixed amount to another bank/ account at a regular interval. It is also used by many borrowers to pay EMIs as EMI is a fixed amount. SI is not suitable for variable amounts.
