Down payment for ₹50 lakh
Home loans above ₹30 lakh and up to ₹75 lakh can be financed up to 80% of property value under RBI limits. Your ₹50 lakh loan thus goes with a home worth about ₹62,50,000 and about ₹12,50,000 from you, apart from registration and stamp duty.
Pay needed for ₹49,237
Allowing half of take-home pay for the EMI, you need about ₹98,500 a month. Allowing 40%, you need about ₹1,23,100. Fifteen years ends the loan while you are still in peak earning years.
Year 1 tax picture
Year 1 has ₹4,18,384 of interest and ₹1,72,460 of principal. The interest is ₹2,18,384 above the ₹2 lakh Section 24(b) cap, so only ₹2 lakh can be claimed on a self-occupied home, and only in the old regime. Section 80C takes the principal part up to ₹1.5 lakh with your other items.
Putting ₹2,50,000 into the loan
An extra ₹2,50,000 at the end of year 3 at 8.5% saves about ₹4,10,888 of interest and shortens the loan by about 13 months. Lenders cannot levy prepayment charges on floating-rate home loans to individuals.
Budget for a higher rate
If the rate becomes 9%, the EMI goes up by ₹1,476 to ₹50,713. Across 180 months that is about ₹2,65,680 more.
Start age
A 15-year loan starts by 45 under a lender limit of 60, and by 55 under a limit of 70. Treat these as rules of thumb.
Checking your other obligations
Add card dues, car loans and any other EMI to the proposed instalment before applying. Lenders do the same, and a lower existing burden can lift the amount approved.
Keeping fifteen years achievable
If your income is likely to rise, fifteen years can work well. If it is flat, consider the 20-year term and use part-payments to behave like a 15-year borrower whenever cash allows, with no commitment on the lean months.
