Frequently Asked Questions

How to compare loans effectively?

Compare loans based on: (1) Total cost (principal + interest), not just EMI, (2) Interest rate and whether it's fixed or floating, (3) Processing fees and other charges, (4) Prepayment flexibility and charges, (5) Foreclosure option availability.

Should I choose lower EMI or lower total cost?

Lower total cost is generally better as it means you pay less overall. Lower EMI often comes with longer tenure which increases total interest. Choose lower EMI only if monthly cash flow is a concern.

Does longer tenure reduce EMI?

Yes, longer tenure reduces monthly EMI but significantly increases total interest paid. For example, a ₹50L loan at 8.5% costs ₹23L extra in interest if you choose 25 years over 15 years tenure.

What is the difference between fixed and floating rate?

Fixed rate stays constant throughout the loan tenure. Floating rate changes based on RBI repo rate and bank's lending rate. Floating rates are usually lower initially but can increase over time.
