LIC Housing Finance Interest Rate FAQs

The longer the loan tenure, the lower will be the principal component of EMI. However, the total interest payable to the bank over the entire loan tenure will be higher. So, it is advisable to opt for an affordable EMI and select the shortest possible tenure.

You get the lowest EMI with daily reducing interest even at the same rate of interest. Under this method, the principal outstanding amount is adjusted every day for the principal amount repaid. However, with monthly reducing interest, principal repaid will be credited only at the end of the month.

When the floating interest rate on your Home Loan changes, the EMI amount would remain the same in most cases. The loan tenure will be reduced or increased by the lender to adjust for the higher or lower interest rate. However, you can request the lender to reset the EMI at nominal EMI reset fee, subject to eligibility and bank conditions.

A delayed or missed EMI will reflect as days payment due (DPD) in your credit report and may hurt your credit score. A bounced ECS/ cheque for EMI will also appear in your bank statement. All this will make it more difficult and expensive for you to avail of a new loan in the future.

Yes, you can reduce your Home Loan EMI by simply making a part prepayment of your loan by using some of your savings/ bonus or any other surplus. At part prepayment, you can either opt to reduce your EMI and keep the repayment tenure unchanged or opt for a shorter tenure. Doing so will help you repay the loan faster.

You can set up an instruction for ECS update in favour of the bank for the complete loan tenure so that you don't have to keep the due date in mind every month. Also, plan your finances only after deducting the EMI amount from your monthly budget.

Yes, you can club your spouse's income with your income to increase your eligibility for LIC Housing Finance Home Loan
