No-Cost EMI is a free loan

Buying a product on EMI reduces the burden of paying a huge cost upfront. But there is always a cost that you have to bear on No-Cost EMI.  

Interest on the loan is built into the EMI, except that the breakup may not be clearly visible to you upfront. Also, you pay a processing fee and GST on interest every month.
