Question asked by Mr Sunny Sureen: Dear Vatsala, Few years back my father had applied for a loan from LIC Housing Finance for construction( extension ) of his existing property.

During the 1st year a part of the EMI was adjust for a premium payment of Insurance policy started at the time of approval of the loan. But it was discontinued due to financial constraints and the policy got lapsed. A month back my father passed away and a major part of the loan is still outstanding. I am getting calls from the institution to pay the EMIs due since past few months. I told them the situation on phone. Now the institution is suggesting me to continue paying the EMIs till the entire loan is repaid. Please suggest me what would be the standard procedure to be followed in this situation, so that later on I dont face any restrictions/hassles ...
