Credit Cards outstanding in total of 97000

Please Advise would taking a personal loan & paying off my cards be a gud option at this point of time.

Your monthly net take home is Rs. 19,000 (including quarterly allowances)
Your monthly EMI commitments is Rs. 6,486 (assuming 5 % payment on credit card balance)

My recommendation to you is as follows

a. Opt for a top-up on loan 1. This should generate liquid cash to the extent of Rs. 42,000 without any change in your monthly outgo, but your tenure will increase.
b. If the loan provider is able to offer a top-up with an enhancement, please take up the offer. There will be an increase in the EMI in this case.
c. Use the Rs. 42,000 to pay off card debts as these are typically at 36 %.
d. This should bring down your monthly EMI commitments by about Rs. 4,385
e. You should apply for an additional personal loan of Rs. 55,000 to pay off the balance portion of your card debt.
f. Use your cards sensibly and pay the full amount due at the end of every billing cycle.

You should ensure that all additional income is ploughed back to ensure that your debt is reduced. Please regulate your expenses and get into a habit of saving a portion of your salary every month. Prudence in expenses is the only trick to stay out of debt traps.

Do get back to me for any clarifications on your personalised debt consolidation plan.

As suggested above you can opt for a top-up on your existing loan. With that amount clear your card dues.And for the balance dues you can apply for a loan.
