Frequently Asked Questions
How to compare two home loans?
Compare: (1) Total interest paid (not just EMI), (2) Processing fee + other charges, (3) Prepayment penalty, (4) Part payment flexibility. A loan with slightly higher interest but no prepayment penalty may be better long-term if you plan to prepay. Our calculator shows total cost including all charges.
Should I choose lower EMI or lower tenure?
Lower tenure = higher EMI but less total interest. Example: ₹50L at 8.5% — 20 years: EMI ₹43,391, total interest ₹54.1L. 15 years: EMI ₹49,319, total interest ₹38.8L. Choosing 15 years saves ₹15.3L but EMI is ₹5,928 higher. If you can afford higher EMI, shorter tenure saves more.

Loan Comparison Calculator India — Find the Cheapest Loan

Comparing loans by interest rate alone is misleading. The true cost of a loan includes: processing fee (0.5-2% of loan), prepayment charges (0-4%), insurance premium (often bundled), and GST on fees. Our loan comparison calculator shows the total cost of each loan including EMI, total interest paid, and all charges so you can make an informed decision. Even a 0.5% difference in interest rate on a ₹30L home loan over 20 years means ₹1.5-2 lakh difference in total payment.

Home Loan vs Personal Loan vs Car Loan — Key Differences

Home loan (8.35-9%): Secured against property, 20-30 year tenure, tax benefits under Section 24b and 80C. Personal loan (11-20%): Unsecured, 1-5 year tenure, no tax benefit, fastest approval. Car loan (9-10%): Secured against vehicle, 5-7 year tenure, no tax benefit. Always prefer secured loans — the interest rate difference of 6-10% on personal vs home loan means you pay 2-3× more for personal loan.

When to Prepay Your Loan — EMI Math Explained

Prepaying a home loan in the early years saves significantly more than late prepayment. On a ₹30L loan at 8.35% for 20 years, prepaying ₹3L after Year 1 saves ₹5.8L in interest and 2.5 years of tenure. Same prepayment after Year 15 saves only ₹30,000. This is because early EMIs are mostly interest — later EMIs are mostly principal. Use our loan comparison to see prepayment impact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which bank has lowest home loan rate in India 2026?

Is it better to take loan for longer tenure?
Longer tenure = lower EMI but much higher total interest. ₹20L at 9% for 10 years: EMI ₹25,334, total interest ₹10.4L. Same loan for 20 years: EMI ₹18,000, total interest ₹23.2L. The "comfortable" lower EMI costs ₹12.8L more! Choose the shortest tenure your budget allows.
