My recommendation to you is as follows

a. Opt for a top-up on loan 7&8. This should generate liquid cash to the extent of Rs. 3.63 lacs 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. 3.63 lacs to pay off card dues if any or then pay off loan 1,6 & 10 are at a higher interest rate.
d. This should bring down your monthly EMI commitments considerably.

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.
