Home Loan Calculator: How 1% relaxation in loan interest rate can save Rs 15.86 lakh on Rs 75 lakh loan; investing that in SIP can give over Rs 1 crore
Home Loan Calculator: When we take a home loan for a long duration, every percentage point in its interest rate plays a key role as a slightly lower interest rate can help one save lakhs of rupees in the long run.
Home Loan Calculator: For a borrower who somehow manages to pay their monthly equated instalments (EMIs), every percentage point of the interest rate matters, as it increases or decreases their interest amount significantly.
But borrowers feel the pinch more when they are on a long-tenure loan.
The reason is that the longer the loan tenure, the higher the interest amount.
In home loans, which have tenures of 15–30 years, the interest amount is most often larger than the principal amount.
Borrowers need to bargain hard with the lender to get the home loan at the lowest possible interest rate.
It will help them save a significant amount on their loan.
In this write-up, know how much interest a borrower can save on a Rs 75 lakh loan for 25 years if they get it at lower and higher rates and what will happen if the borrower invests the saved interest amount in a mutual fund SIP.
