Abhishek Kumar's role: Quoted

Abhishek Kumar of SahajMoney said some borrowers route their salary through the overdraft account and pay credit card bills from it to save more interest, and cautioned that only idle cash should go there, not money meant for long-term investments.

Mint explains overdraft home loans, which let borrowers park surplus cash in the loan account to cut interest while keeping it available to withdraw.

It includes comments from Abhishek Kumar.
