Calculate interest savings from prepayments.
Discover how making extra payments on your loan can save you thousands in interest and shorten your repayment period.
Making a prepayment on your loan is one of the most effective ways to reduce your financial burden and build equity faster. A prepayment is any payment you make that is over and above your regular Equated Monthly Installment (EMI). Because this extra amount goes directly towards reducing your outstanding principal, its impact on your loan is significant.
Making prepayments reduces your principal faster, saving interest and shortening your loan tenure. Even small extra payments add up significantly over time.
