What Factors Affect Your Home Loan EMI?
When calculating your EMI, the calculator includes all the parameters
that impact it. Let’s take a look at the various factors that impact your monthly
repayments:
1. Principal: The principal is the loan amount you initially borrow from
the lender. It is directly proportional to your EMI. Higher the loan amount, higher the EMI.
2. Interest Rate: The interest rate is what you pay for borrowing the loan.
In short, it shows you the cost of your loan. It differs from one bank to another. The
higher the interest rate, the higher the EMI will be. Finding a lender that offers you the
lowest interest rates can help you lower your EMIs. The lower the interest rate, the lower
the total cost of your loan will be.
3. Tenure: The time you take to repay the amount you borrow is called
tenure or the period of the loan. The tenure is inversely proportional to your EMI. The
longer the loan tenure, the lower your EMI. The loan tenure is determined based on your age
at the time of borrowing and your retirement age. The longest loan tenure offered banks in
India is ₹30 year.
4. Processing Fee: This value is a percentage of your loan amount or a
minimum or maximum fee decided by the lender. It is the fee that the bank charges to process
your loan application. You can know about this amount from your loan documents. At least a
part of this fee will be payable at the time of application. And your lender may not refund
this amount even if your application is rejected.
5. Prepayments: As mentioned earlier, making prepayments on your property
loan can help you reduce the outstanding principal. This, in turn, reduces your interest
charges. And both together contribute to reducing your EMIs if you prefer to keep the tenure
constant.
What are the Tax Benefits of Paying Home Loan EMIs?
Taking a loan to buy a house can be expensive, but it also has certain
benefits, especially when it comes to taxes. The government offers Tax reliefs via the
Income Tax Act, 1961 on the EMIs you pay every year. These are as follows:
1. Section 80C: You can claim a tax deduction of up to ₹ 1.5 lakh every
year on the principal amounts paid towards your property loan.
2. Section 24: Under this section, you can claim a deduction of up to ₹ 2
lakh on the interest component you pay each year.
3. Section 80EE: Under this section, you can claim an additional interest
amount of up to ₹ 50,000 per year. This is over and above the amounts mentioned in Sections
80C and 24. This deduction is subject to certain terms and conditions.
