FAQs

Does a lower EMI always mean a cheaper loan?

Not necessarily. Stretching tenure lowers EMI but usually raises total interest. Compare total interest and your cash-flow buffer.

Should I prepay or invest?

It depends on loan rate, tax benefits (if any), expected investment returns and emergency reserves. Run prepayment scenarios first, then decide with your full balance sheet.
