The following are the various impacts that can take place on your loan depending on multiple parameters:


Revision in Tenure with EMI Constant

Revision in Tenure & EMI

Revision in EMI


Illustration:


Scenario: Customer is a Salaried individual with a Home Loan from ABHFL with the following terms:


Loan Amount: Rs. 30,00,000

Loan Tenure: 240 months (20 years)

ROI: 9.00%

EMI: Rs. 26,992


The calculated EMI is Rs. 26,992 as per the above parameters.


Scenario: Loan has been paid for 10 months and there is still another 230 months to repay the same. After 10 months, the loan details are:


Loan Outstanding Amount: Rs. 29,53,536

Balance Loan Tenure: 230 months


Scenario: Reference Rate increases by 0.25% due to which ROI has also changed. Revised ROI will be: 9.00% + 0.25% = 9.25%


Considering the Loan Outstanding Amount, Remainder Loan Tenure & Revised ROI, the Revised EMI = Rs. 27,463


Increase in EMI = Rs. 27,463 (Revised EMI) – Rs. 26,992 (Original EMI) = Rs. 471.

Impact of Rate increase by 0.25% = Rs. 471 (Difference in EMI) x 230 months (Remainder Loan Tenure) = Rs. 1,08,349


Ideally, increase in tenure keeping EMI constant would be looked at (provided there is no tenure breach). In such a scenario, tenure would be increased by 12 additional months and the additional outflow is Rs.3,23,901 (12 x 26,992).
