Understanding Late Payment Charges

Late payment charges are fees imposed by credit card issuers when payments are not made by the due date. These charges typically include:

  • Late payment fees (fixed amount)
  • Late payment interest (calculated daily)
  • Additional service fees

The exact amount depends on your credit card issuer's policy and how many days your payment is late.

Late Payment Interest Formula:

Late Payment Interest = (Daily Late Payment Interest Rate × Outstanding Balance × Number of Days Late) / 365

SBI Credit Card Late Payment Policy

SBI Credit Cards typically impose the following late payment charges:

Days Late Late Payment Fee Daily Late Payment Interest Rate
1-15 days ₹300 1.5% per annum
16-30 days ₹500 2.5% per annum
31+ days ₹1000 3.5% per annum

Additional service fees may apply if your payment remains unpaid for an extended period.

Calculator Example

Let's calculate the late payment charges for a ₹50,000 balance that was paid 20 days late:

  1. Late Payment Fee: ₹500 (since 16-30 days late)
  2. Daily Late Payment Interest Rate: 2.5% per annum (0.025/365 ≈ 0.000068493%)
  3. Late Payment Interest: (0.000068493 × 50,000 × 20) ≈ ₹6.85
  4. Total Late Payment Charges: ₹500 + ₹6.85 = ₹506.85

This example shows how quickly late payment charges can add up, especially for larger balances.
