Indiana Code Title 24. Trade Regulation § 24-4.5-2-405

Current as of January 02, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Sec. 405. (1) With respect to a consumer credit sale, other than one pursuant to a revolving charge account or one on which only credit service charges are payable before the time that the final scheduled payment is due, if any scheduled payment is more than twice as large as the average of earlier scheduled payments, the buyer has the right to refinance the amount of that payment at the time it is due without penalty.  The terms of the refinancing shall be no less favorable to the buyer than the terms of the original sale.  This section does not apply to the extent that the payment schedule is adjusted to the seasonal or irregular income of the buyer.

(2) For the purposes of this section, “terms of the refinancing” means:

(a) in the case of a fixed-rate consumer credit sale, the individual payment amounts, the charges as a result of default by the buyer, and the rate of the credit service charge;  and

(b) in the case of a variable rate consumer credit sale, the method used to determine the individual payment amounts, the charges as a result of default by the buyer, the method used to determine the rate of the credit service charge, the circumstances under which the rate of the credit service charge may increase, and any limitations on the increase in the rate of the credit service charge.
