What is a Home Loan Repayment or Amortization Schedule?
Updated: Apr 05, 2022
What is a Home Loan Repayment?
Home loan repayment is basically the dispossession of a home loan, by repaying the loan in terms of the principal borrowed as well as interest charges. It is the full reimbursement of the outstanding sum on a home loan through a solitary installment as opposed to paying in Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs).
What is an Amortization Schedule?
An amortization plan or schedule is a table specifying each installment or EMI on a loan. Each EMI repayment for an amortized loan will contain both an interest installment and installment towards the principal, which differs for each interval. An amortization plan shows the sum that will be paid towards each installment, alongside the interest and the excess principal after each interval. Use our home loan EMI calculator to understand the amortization schedule of your loan.
Basic amortization scheme doesn’t represent additional installments, yet this doesn't imply that borrowers can't pay extra towards their credits. Likewise, amortization plans for the most part don't think about charges. By and large, amortization plans just work for fixed-rate mortgages and not flexible rate contracts or the variable rate mortgages.
For instance, A took a loan of INR 50,00,000 on a 15-year tenure at an interest rate of 7.5%. Now we will look at the amortization plan for this example.
