Frequently Asked Questions

What is the EMI for a ₹20 lakh home loan over 20 years?

At 9% interest, monthly EMI is ₹17,995. Total payment over 20 years is ₹43,18,685, of which ₹23,18,685 is interest.

Can I prepay a home loan without penalty?

Does the EMI change with interest rate changes?

On floating-rate loans, either the EMI or the tenure adjusts when the benchmark rate changes. Most banks default to keeping EMI constant and adjusting tenure; you can request the reverse.

What tax benefits apply to a home loan?

Under the old tax regime: Section 80C allows up to ₹1.5L deduction on principal; Section 24(b) allows up to ₹2L on interest for a self-occupied property. New tax regime: only let-out property interest is deductible.
