How it works

A prepayment cuts the principal, so every later EMI carries less interest. The calculator keeps the EMI the same and lets the loan end sooner.

Banks don’t charge for prepaying a floating-rate home loan taken by an individual (RBI rule); check your loan’s terms for anything else.

Formula: Each month: Balance = Balance × (1 + i) − EMI; at the end of each year, Balance = Balance − Extra. The loan ends when the balance reaches zero.

Questions

How much does ₹1 lakh a year prepayment save on a ₹50 lakh loan?

At 8.5% for 20 years, about ₹18.55 L in interest, and the loan ends 6 years sooner.

Is it better to lower the EMI or the tenure?

Keeping the EMI and cutting the tenure saves more interest. Lowering the EMI gives more room in your monthly budget.
