EMI on a ₹60 lakh home loan
A ₹60 lakh home loan at 7.4% over 20 years costs about ₹47,969 a month. On top of the amount you borrow, you repay roughly ₹55,12,651 in interest. Two things set your EMI: the interest rate and the tenure. A longer tenure lowers the EMI but adds years of interest. A shorter one raises the EMI and cuts the total cost. Pick the shortest tenure whose EMI you can pay without strain. Try your own rate and tenure in the calculator below, or compare them in the table. Banks usually price a loan of this size between 7.5% and 10%, depending on your credit score, income and lender. These figures are estimates for planning. Your bank's sanction letter has the final numbers. If you plan to prepay part of the loan, the prepayment calculator shows the interest you would save.

Common questions
- What is the EMI on a ₹60 lakh home loan?
- At 7.4% over 20 years the EMI is about ₹47,969 a month. The exact figure depends on your rate and tenure, so use the table or the calculator above.
- What salary do I need for a ₹60 lakh home loan?
- Most banks cap your total EMIs at about half of your take-home pay. For an EMI of ₹47,969, that means take-home pay of roughly ₹95,939 a month. Existing loans reduce what you can borrow.
- Is a longer tenure always cheaper?
- No. A longer tenure gives a smaller EMI, but you pay interest for more years. The total cost goes up. Pick the shortest tenure you can afford without strain.
- Can I cut the interest by prepaying?
- Yes. Any extra money you pay goes straight to the loan balance, so you owe less interest from then on. Early prepayments save the most. Banks cannot charge a penalty on floating-rate loans for individuals.
