Prepayment Strategy

Reducing tenure saves more interest overall. Reducing EMI improves monthly cashflow. Most financial advisors recommend reducing tenure.

How to Use This Prepayment Calculator — Step by Step

1

Enter the outstanding loan balance

This is the current principal you still owe — not the original loan amount. Find it in your latest bank statement, loan account portal, or by calling your lender.

2

Enter the interest rate and remaining tenure

Use your current applicable rate. For floating-rate loans, use today's rate. Enter the years or months still remaining on the loan — not the original tenure.

3

Enter the prepayment amount

How much do you plan to pay as a lump sum today? Check your loan agreement for prepayment charges — many home loans have nil charges after the first year.

4

Choose a prepayment strategy

Reduce Tenure keeps your EMI the same but you become debt-free sooner — maximising total interest savings. Reduce EMI keeps the same tenure but lowers your monthly payment, improving cashflow.

5

Read the results and the balance chart

See your total interest saved, new tenure or new EMI, and the chart comparing how your outstanding balance drops with and without the prepayment.

Reduce Tenure vs Reduce EMI — Which is Better?

Both strategies reduce your total interest paid compared to making no prepayment. However, reducing tenure saves more interest because the principal is cleared faster, reducing the base on which interest compounds.

  • Reduce Tenure: Same EMI, debt-free sooner. Best when income is stable and you want to maximise savings.
  • Reduce EMI: Same tenure, lower monthly obligation. Best when you need improved monthly cashflow for other goals or investments.
  • Rule of thumb: If the loan rate exceeds your expected investment return, reduce tenure. If you can invest the saved EMI at a higher return, reduce EMI and invest the difference.

How is Interest Saved Calculated?

Interest Saved = Total Interest (original) − Total Interest (after prepayment)

  • Reduce Tenure: New tenure = ⌈ ln(EMI / (EMI − r × P_new)) ÷ ln(1 + r) ⌉ months
  • Reduce EMI: New EMI = P_new × r × (1+r)^n ÷ ((1+r)^n − 1), where n is unchanged
  • In both cases: Total Interest = (EMI × months) − Principal

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there prepayment charges on home loans in India?

For floating-rate home loans from banks, RBI guidelines prohibit prepayment penalties. Fixed-rate loans and loans from NBFCs may still have charges (typically 1–4% of the prepaid amount). Always check your loan agreement before prepaying.

When is the best time to prepay a loan?

Early in the loan tenure — when the outstanding principal is highest and most of your EMI is going toward interest. A prepayment in year 2 of a 20-year loan saves far more than the same prepayment in year 15.

Should I prepay or invest the lump sum?

Compare your loan interest rate to the post-tax return on your investment. If the loan rate (e.g. 8.5%) is higher than the expected post-tax investment return, prepaying wins. If you can reliably earn more after tax (e.g., equity SIP at 12%), investing may be better — though prepaying provides a guaranteed, risk-free return equal to your interest rate.

Does this calculator account for multiple prepayments?

This calculator models a single lump-sum prepayment made now. For a series of prepayments over time, run the calculator after each payment by updating the new outstanding balance and remaining tenure.
