FAQ
- What is the EMI on a ₹1.5 Crore balance transfer for 20 years?
- At the lowest listed starting rate of 7.15% (Canara) in this snapshot, the EMI is ₹1,17,649. Your actual EMI depends on your CIBIL score, income, profile and chosen lender.
- How much total interest will I pay?
- At 7.15%, total interest is ₹1,32,35,760. At the highest listed starting rate (8.85%), it is ₹1,70,43,600.
- Can I reduce the EMI further?
- Three levers can change the result: (1) Increase tenure by 5 years — this can lower EMI but raise total interest; (2) Compare each lender's current quote, not just the listed starting rate; (3) Add a co-applicant only if the lender's eligibility rules and your repayment plan support it.
- What if I pre-pay part of the loan?
- Under RBI rules, floating-rate loans to individual borrowers carry no pre-payment penalty. A ₹5–10 lakh pre-payment in year 3–5 can cut several years off the tenure. Fixed-rate loans and some business loans may carry a pre-payment charge — check the Key Fact Statement.
