dear sir

Yes the bank can charge you . it depends if the amount is more than bank can go to drt and file OA against you. if there is arbitration clause then arbitration may be initiate against you. and if the amount is less than 10 lakhs then civil suit can be filed against you.

Yes, the bank can proceed against you to recover the balance amount by filling an application to the Debt Recovery Tribunal in case the whole outstanding amount is not recovered. In case they get more money than the outstanding amount , they will set it off against charges/expenses and give you the left over sum.

so you can write a letter seeking for more time. your house cannot be auctioned without follwoing due process of law and bank cannot harass you like this. banks are always willing to settle their claim
