Home Loans: Top 5 banks including HDFC, SBI with lowest rates of interest – check full list

 

HDFC Bank charges interest rate on its home loan in the range of 9.4 to 9.95 percent per annum. SBI charges a rate that hovers between 9.15 percent and 9.75 percent based on the borrower’s CIBIL score.


The marginal difference in the interest rate can end up making a significant difference in the total interest outgo for the borrower over the loan tenure.

If you are planning to buy a house and looking for a home loan for the same, you would ideally be looking not only for a bank that can give you money as early as possible but also the one that charges a low rate of interest.

After all, the marginal difference in the interest rate can end up making a significant difference in the total interest outgo for the borrower over the loan tenure.

Let us suppose, someone raises ₹50 lakh loan at 9.8 percent interest rate, the EMI (equated monthly installment) for 10 years would be ₹65,523. The EMI rises to ₹66,075 when the interest rate inches upward to 10 percent per annum

Over a period of 10 years, the borrower will end up paying ₹66,240 higher if the rate of interest is only 20 basis points higher.

Interest          ₹50 lakh repayment in 10 years 
9.8%                65,523 X 120 = 78,62,760
10%             66,075 X 120 = 79,29,000
Difference: 66,240 in 120 months
