A.No, your education loan account will not be termed as NPA as long as you keep paying the EMI for that loan account and keep it regular because NPA norms function at account level and at customer level.

A.Hi,
The default by your father will have no effect on your loan account, as you both are co-burrowers, and the default of one co-borrower does not affect the account of the other. Hence, your loan account will not be classified as NPA.

A.Hi,
No, you are not responsible for the default by the co-borrower. So, for your father's default, your account will not be declared as NPA. Your liabilities to the bank are separate.
