Frequently asked

How is EMI calculated in India?
Banks use the reducing-balance method: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1). P is the principal, r the monthly interest rate and n the number of monthly instalments. Early EMIs are mostly interest; later ones mostly principal.
Does a longer tenure reduce my EMI?
Yes, but total interest rises sharply. Doubling a home-loan tenure from 10 to 20 years typically cuts the EMI by around 30% while roughly doubling the interest paid.
Is prepayment worth it?
On floating-rate home loans RBI rules prohibit prepayment penalties for individuals, so a lump-sum prepayment early in the tenure saves the most interest. Ask Simpledot with your exact loan details for a prepayment schedule.
