Formula

EMI = P × R × (1+R)N / [(1+R)N − 1]

P = Loan amount   R = Monthly rate (Annual% ÷ 12 ÷ 100)   N = Months

Home loans use reducing-balance EMI. Min income = EMI ÷ 0.5 (banks allow max 50% of income as EMI). Section 24(b): deduct up to ₹2L interest under old tax regime.

Frequently Asked Questions

RBI mandates: min 10% down for loans up to ₹30L (LTV 90%), min 20% for ₹30-75L (LTV 80%), min 25% for above ₹75L (LTV 75%). A higher down payment reduces EMI and total interest.
Under old tax regime: Section 24(b) — up to ₹2L deduction on interest per year for self-occupied property. Section 80C — up to ₹1.5L deduction on principal repayment. These deductions are not available under the new tax regime.
(1) Make annual prepayments — even ₹1L/year saves significant interest. (2) Opt for shorter tenure if EMI is manageable. (3) Do balance transfer to lower-rate lender. (4) Negotiate rate reduction when repo rate falls.
