For stress-free car buying, follow the 20-4-10 formula. It guides down payment, loan amount, and affordable car price.

34

The number '20' in the formula signifies a 20% down payment of the car's price. Avoid 100% financing to minimise risk.

The '4' represents a loan tenure of fewer than 4 years to reduce interest. The '10' means EMIs should be 10% or less of your income.
