Frequently Asked Questions

How is EMI calculated?

EMI is calculated using the formula EMI = [P × r × (1+r)n] / [(1+r)n − 1], where P is the loan principal, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is the number of monthly installments.

Does prepayment reduce my EMI?

Prepayment reduces your outstanding principal. You can usually choose to either keep the EMI the same and shorten the tenure, or reduce the EMI and keep the tenure. Shortening tenure typically saves more interest.

Are home loan EMIs tax-deductible?

Yes, under the Old Tax Regime. Principal repayment qualifies under Section 80C (up to ₹1.5 lakh) and interest under Section 24(b) (up to ₹2 lakh for self-occupied property). Use our income tax calculator to see the full benefit.

What is the difference between fixed and floating rate?

Fixed-rate keeps your EMI constant for the entire tenure. Floating-rate (more common) changes when the bank revises its repo-linked rate, so EMI can rise or fall. Most home loans in India today are floating-rate.

What is a good tenure for a home loan?

Shorter tenure saves significant interest but increases monthly burden. Longer tenure is easier on monthly cash flow but pays much more interest. A 15–20 year tenure is common for home loans; consult a CA to balance EMI affordability with total interest cost.
