There is no one right answer to this question. The bank you choose will depend on your personal financial situation. But let’s look at the options you have-

Public banks: Public Sector Banks or PSB’s, like SBI, offer low-interest rates. Apply for a loan here at least 20-25 days in advance. Private banks: The good thing about private banks like HDFC and Axis is that they offer higher amounts of loans than PSB’s for unsecured loans. NBFC’s: NBFC’s are a great option if you want to get an unsecured loan in a very short period of time.
