Questions people ask
What is the EMI on ₹5 lakh for 7 years?
About ₹8,172 a month at 9.5%. That’s ₹2,329 less a month than 5 years, but ₹56.4K more in interest — on a car that loses value every year.
What salary do I need for a ₹5 lakh car loan?
Lenders usually want all your EMIs under about half your take-home pay. A common, safer rule is to keep the car EMI under 10–15% of take-home: for ₹10,501 a month that’s an in-hand salary of roughly ₹70,006 or more.
How much down payment should I make?
At least 20%. A ₹5 lakh loan with 20% down means a car of about ₹6.25 L on-road. A bigger down payment cuts the interest and keeps you from owing more than the car is worth.
Can I prepay a car loan?
Usually, yes. Floating-rate loans can’t carry prepayment charges, but most car loans are fixed-rate and banks may charge 2–5% for closing early. Check before you sign.
