At 8.5%, about ₹38,446 a month. You’d pay ₹88.4 L in interest, compared with ₹54.14 L over 20 years.
What salary do I need for a ₹50 lakh home loan?
Banks usually let all your EMIs take up to about half your take-home pay. For a 20-year loan at 8.5% (EMI ₹43,391), that means a take-home salary of roughly ₹86,782 a month, with no other loans.
How much does a 0.5% lower rate save?
On ₹50 lakh over 20 years, 8% instead of 8.5% cuts the EMI by ₹1,569 a month and saves about ₹3.77 L in interest over the loan.
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 ₹50 lakh loan needs a home worth at least ₹62.5 L or so, plus around 7% for stamp duty and registration.
