3. • If you have an outstanding home loan, and
happen to have just received an annual
bonus or any other lump sum payment,
should you use it to prepay your loan?
• Or, should you invest it to meet some other
goals? Assess the following conditions to
arrive at the right decision.
4. • Tax benefit is the next variable. If a home
loan does not seem like the sword of
Damocles hanging over your head, it makes
sense to continue with the regular EMI
schedule.
• This is because of the tax benefits that a
home loan offers. The principal component
of the Home Loan Emi Calculator is treated
as investment under Section 80C.
• The interest component is also deducted
from your taxable income under Section 24.
5. • There are some home loan products that provide an overdraft facility of
sorts and help you maintain liquidity.
• All you have to do is to park the surplus money in these products and not
bother with whether it's a prepayment or not.
• It's like prepayment with the option of taking out that money, in case you
need it in future for personal use or for investment purpose.
