Why Car Lease is better than car loan?

Instead of buying a car, what if you could just lease out the car of your choice for regular use? Better still if you are a Company that manages a fleet of cars for your employees, wouldn’t it be nice to just lease out the cars and instead of investing your resources in maintenance and repairs, you just pay a monthly price for the lease?

Your car falls under the category of a depreciating asset and attracts at least 15% depreciation per annum. Buying a car is a decision that involves many factors as it’s an expensive affair more so if you are corporate. Car leasing in India is already popular in the corporate world and fast catching up with professionals & individuals like doctors, lawyers, Entrepreneurs and self-employed individuals.

When you lease a car, you can use the vehicle for a fixed term by paying monthly rental. Generally, it's two to five years. Car leasing in India generally offers two types of leasing contracts. Operational leasing: Where you just buy the fuel and all other worries are taken care by the car leasing company. They take care of the insurance, registration, repairs etc.

Financial Leasing: Allows you the option to buy the car after a stipulated time.

Some of the advantages of leasing your car are,

  • 1) The leasing company takes care of damage repairs.
  • 2) They arrange for a pickup & drop for servicing your car.
  • 3) Tax Benefit: as the car lease expenditure can be claimed as 100% deduction in your filing.
  • 4) Affordability: To buy your car you need to make a down payment. By leasing, you get to use your favorite car with zero down payment.
  • 5) Qualifying Criteria: If you are a company you are already qualified. If you are an individual, basic identity proofs and tax filing reports can help you quickly lease your favorite car.
