Repayment by way of EMI commences from the month following the month in which you take full disbursement. EMI Calculator Back to top --What is pre-EMI interest? Pending final disbursement, you pay interest on the portion of the loan disbursed. This interest called pre-EMI interest. Pre-EMI interest is payable every month from the date of each disbursement upto the date of commencement of EMI. Back to top --What is Tranche Based EMI repayment option ? To help customers save pre-EMI interest, we have introduced a special facility of Tranche Based EMI. For under construction properties customers can choose the instalments they wish to pay, till the time the property is ready for possession. Anything paid over and above the interest by the customer goes towards Principal repayment. The customer benefits by starting EMI and hence repays the loan faster. Back to top --Can I repay my loan ahead of schedule? Yes, you can repay the loan ahead of schedule by making Lumpsum payments or choose our accelerated repayment scheme . There are NO charges for choosing an accelerated repayment scheme and for lumpsum payments under Adjustable Rate Home Loan.

Prepayment charges are applicable under Fixed and Adjustable Rate Home Loan for prepayment through a refinance from other bank or institution. For further details please contact our Loan Counsellor.

Interest repayment of Rs. 1,50,000 p.a. can get you a tax saving upto about Rs. 47,250 p.a. Moreover, you can get added tax benefits under Sec 80 C on repayment of principal amount upto Rs. 1,00,000 p.a. that can further reduce your tax liability by about Rs. 30,000 p.a. Back to top --What security will I have to provide? The security for the loan is a first mortgage of the property to be financed, normally by way of deposit of title deeds and/or such other collateral security as may be necessary. Interim security may be additionally required, if the property is under construction. Collateral or interim security could be assignment to HDFC of life insurance policies, the surrender value of which is at least equal to the loan amount, guarantees from sound and solvent guarantors, pledge of shares and such other investments that are acceptable to HDFC. Please do ensure that the title to the property is clear, marketable and free from encumbrance.
