Impact of Tenure on a ₹10 Lakh Home Loan
Choosing the right tenure balances monthly affordability against lifetime borrowing costs. - Short Tenure (10 Years): The monthly EMI is higher at ₹12,399 (at 8.5%), but you pay only ₹4,87,834 in total interest. - Long Tenure (20 Years): The monthly installment drops to ₹8,678, saving ₹3,721 monthly in cash flow, but total interest more than doubles to ₹10,82,776. - Extra Cost: Stretching from 10 to 20 years incurs an extra ₹5,94,942 in interest on the same ₹10 Lakh principal.
Prepayment Strategy for ₹10 Lakh Loans
Even modest prepayments significantly cut interest expenses because extra payments directly deduct from the outstanding principal balance: - Prepaying an extra ₹1,000 monthly reduces a 20-year loan tenure by over 4 years. - An annual lump-sum prepayment equal to one additional EMI per year saves more than ₹1.8 Lakh in cumulative interest.
