Does the loan repayment moratorium period allow me to start repayment after one or two years of completing my studies in UK?

No, the loan repayment moratorium period does not automatically allow you to start repayment one or two years after completing your studies.

- UK student loans: Repayment starts in April after you finish your course, but only if your income exceeds a set threshold. If you earn less, repayments are deferred until your income rises above the threshold.
- Indian education loans: Repayment usually begins six months after course completion for overseas studies, but terms can vary by lender. Interest may accrue during this period.
