How much does a 0.5% lower rate save?

How much down payment do I need?
RBI lets banks lend up to 90% of a home’s value on loans up to ₹30 lakh, 80% on loans up to ₹75 lakh and 75% above that. So a ₹40 lakh loan needs a home worth at least ₹50 L or so, plus around 7% for stamp duty and registration.
