Smart Features & Save Setup

Plan prepayments (monthly/yearly/lump-sum), simulate under-construction loans with stage-wise disbursements, and save your complete setup for future reference.

💸

Prepayment Scenarios

Test three prepayment strategies: monthly add-ons (₹500-₹5,000 extra), yearly lump sums (bonus payments), or one-time bulk prepayments. See how each saves lakhs in interest and reduces tenure by years.

🏗️

Under-Construction Support

For ongoing projects, add stage-wise disbursements with dates. Choose between pre-EMI (interest-only) or full EMI during construction. Calculator validates total instalments match your loan amount automatically.

🧾

Tax Benefits & Deductions

Claim up to ₹2L interest deduction (Section 24b) and ₹1.5L principal repayment (Section 80C) annually. Plan your taxes smartly with home loan benefits.

💰

Hidden Costs & Extra Fees

Budget for processing fees (0.5-1% of loan), legal charges, valuation fees, insurance premiums, and prepayment penalties. Stamp duty, and documentation charges add ₹50K-2L to total cost. Always ask for a full cost breakup before signing. Many banks bundle insurance or add technical fees post-sanction.

🎯

Smart Borrowing Tips

Keep 20% down payment ready to reduce loan burden. Even 0.5% rate difference saves ₹3-5L over 20 years. Review rates yearly for refinancing opportunities. Balance prepayments with SIP investments for optimal wealth.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

💡 What is a Home Loan EMI and how is it calculated?

A Home Loan EMI (Equated Monthly Instalment) is a fixed monthly amount you pay towards your loan. It includes both the principal repayment and the interest component. EMIs are calculated using the formula: EMI = [P × R × (1 + R)^N] / [(1 + R)^N − 1], where P is the loan amount, R is the monthly interest rate, and N is the number of months.

📆 What is the difference between pre-EMI and full EMI?

For under-construction properties, banks disburse the loan in stages. You pay only the interest portion (pre-EMI) on the disbursed amount until full disbursement. Once the property is complete, full EMI (interest + principal) payments begin.

💰 How does prepayment affect my loan?

A prepayment reduces your outstanding principal, leading to lower future interest. It can either reduce your EMI or shorten your loan tenure. Even small prepayments early in the tenure can save lakhs in interest.

📈 How can I reduce my total interest cost?

🏗️ Can I simulate an under-construction loan in this calculator?

Yes! Enable the “Under-Construction Loan” toggle to add stage-wise disbursements and months. The calculator automatically computes pre-EMI interest and converts it to full EMI once disbursement is complete.

📄 How can I download my amortization schedule?

After calculation, use the Download PDF or Download Excel buttons to export your full amortization schedule, including month-by-month interest, principal, and balance details.

⚖️ Which is better — reducing EMI or reducing tenure?

Reducing tenure saves more interest overall, but increasing EMI may strain your monthly cash flow. Choose based on your income flexibility — the calculator helps visualize both scenarios.

⚠️ Are these results guaranteed?

No. This calculator provides approximate projections based on the entered values. Actual EMI, interest, and tenure will vary based on your lender’s terms, rate revisions, and prepayment rules.
