A plot loan is the perfect option in the following two cases:

  • If you are looking forward to purchasing a plot for resale
  • If you are planning to purchase land that is through direct allotment

You can apply for customized plus secured loan, and avail the maximum benefits out of the same.

Factors Affecting Home Loan EMI

There are multiple factors that can affect your home loan EMI. Check out some of the key factors below:

Loan amount: The loan amount your borrow affects your EMI. Higher the amount you borrow, the higher your EMI.

Loan tenure: The tenure for which you take a home loan also affects your instalments. If the tenure is longer, your EMI will be lower. Remember, longer tenure also means you pay more interest over the period as compared to a shorter tenure loan.

Interest rate: In case of floating interest rate loans, your EMI will change in line with the fluctuations in interest rates. If the rate goes up, your EMI also goes up.
