The country's largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki India on Friday announced a partnership with Cholamandalam Investment & Finance Company Ltd to provide customised auto retail financing solutions to retail buyers.
The new solution 'Buy-Now-Pay-Later Offer' is aimed to provide customers with easy financing options, Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) said in a statement.
Under the partnership, the companies are also offering a two-month deferment of Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) to car customers who currently are under resource crunch amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, it added.

Commenting on the partnership, MSI Executive Director (Marketing & Sales) Shashank Srivastava said, "it is aimed to offer comfort to buyers who may have faced liquidity crunch during the Covid-19 lockdown. I am sure that the "Buy-Now-Pay-Later Offer" will encourage customers towards car purchase without putting immediate extra pressure on their pockets."
Cholamandalam Investment & Finance Co Ltd Executive Director Ravindra Kundu said the synergies between the organisations are aimed towards singular focus to bring benefits to customers.
"This partnership will give us a strong foothold at the car financing space, with our 1,094 branches spread across semi-urban and rural markets," he added.
Through the partnership, customers can also avail of higher loan to value, up to 90 per cent of on-road funding, and opt for longer repayment tenure.
