Q1: What factors affect my EMI amount?
A: EMI depends on loan amount, interest rate, and loan tenure. Higher amount/rate increases EMI, while longer tenure reduces EMI.
Q2: Can I reduce my EMI payments?
A: Yes, by either increasing the loan tenure or negotiating a lower interest rate with the bank.
Q3: How does prepayment affect my EMI?
A: Prepayment reduces principal, which can either reduce EMI or loan tenure, depending on your agreement with HDFC.
Q4: Are there other charges besides EMI?
A: Yes, home loans typically include processing fees, insurance, and possibly other charges. Check with HDFC for complete details.
Q5: Is EMI fixed for entire loan tenure?
A: For fixed-rate loans, EMI remains constant. For floating-rate loans, EMI may change when interest rates change.
