A Home Loan Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI) is your regular payment towards the borrowed amount, divided into principal and interest components. Calculated from the loan's principal, interest rate, and tenure, the EMI ensures a steady reduction in your loan balance. For seamless management, it's deducted from your savings account. Adjusting the EMI or loan tenure may be necessary if interest rates change, ensuring consistency in repayment when you apply for a Home Loan.

Various Home Loan options are available to suit different housing needs. These include:

• Standard Home Loans for buying a residence.
• Land Purchase Loans for acquiring a plot.
• Construction Loans for building a home.
• Home Improvement Loans for renovation projects.
• Top-up Loans for additional funding on existing loans.
• Balance Transfer Loans to switch lenders for better terms.
• Pre-approved Home Loans for quicker loan processing.

Post sanction, provide the necessary property documents. Following document verification and property appraisal, the loan approval and disbursement occurs within 15 days, subject to accurate and complete documentation.

Applying for a Home Loan online offers significant benefits, streamlining the application process. This saves time, simplifies comparisons of loan options, and calculates eligibility and EMIs instantly. The digital platform ensures a smooth customer experience, removing the need to visit a branch and facilitating a hassle-free and efficient loan application journey.

Additional deductions up to ₹1.5 lakh for loans under the affordable housing segment as per Section 80EEA, subject to certain conditions. Do note that Section 80EEA benefits are not applicable for home loans taken post March 31, 2022.

• The borrower must demonstrate adequate repayment capacity.

A Home Loan is secured to finance the purchase or construction of property, with the property itself serving as collateral. In contrast, a mortgage refers to a loan secured by property already owned, often bearing higher interest rates. Both involve pledging property to the lender, but they serve different financial purposes and are subject to varying interest rates in India.

Home Loans can be utilised for enhancing your property through renovations or adding extensions. Given their lower interest rates compared to personal loans, they are a cost-effective option for home improvement financing.

Axis Bank offers Home Loans up to ₹5 crore. Check your eligibility with the Home Loan Eligibility Calculator to understand the potential loan amount available to you.

Upon submission of the requisite documents, Axis Bank typically sanctions a Home Loan within five business days, enabling a swift start to your home financing journey.

A Home Loan Balance Transfer enables you to shift the outstanding loan amount to a different lender, often for a lower interest rate or a longer repayment term. This strategy can result in reduced interest costs and better financial management. Additionally, you might have the option to obtain further financing through a top-up loan during the balance transfer process.

Salaried applicants must provide their latest salary slips, Form 16, bank statements, and KYC documents, which include proof of identity, address, and income. Employers' certification may also be required to validate employment status and income details.

The processing fee for a Home Loan is a one-time charge, up to 1% of the loan amount. This fee covers the administrative costs incurred during the loan application process.

If your Home Loan application is rejected, review the reasons, rectify credit score issues, manage existing debts, and ensure accuracy in your application. Re-assess your financial status and consider reapplying with improved eligibility or seek alternative lenders.

Enhance your Home Loan eligibility by maintaining a strong credit score, having a stable job history, reducing existing debts, and saving for a higher down payment. Consistent income and a low debt-to-income ratio also strengthen your application.

Fixed-rate Home Loans have a constant interest rate throughout the tenure, providing payment stability. In contrast, floating-rate loans have an interest rate that varies with market conditions, offering the possibility of lower rates over time but with less predictability.

To avail of a Home Loan without an ITR, Axis Bank requires alternative documents demonstrating your income and creditworthiness. This could include recent salary slips, bank statements, and employment proof for salaried individuals. For self-employed individuals, other forms of financial documentation may be required, such as profit and loss statements or audited balance sheets​

It is not typically possible to get a Home Loan with absolutely no documents as lenders need to verify your identity, income, creditworthiness, and the details of the property you wish to purchase. Some form of documentation will always be required.

To reduce your Housing Loan EMIs,you might consider submitting income documents that showcase increased earnings or financial stability. This could potentially qualify you for better loan terms, including lower interest rates. A higher income demonstrated through documents like salary slips or an increased salary can lead to lower EMIs.

The language of the registration document for a Home Loan should be in the official language of the state where the transaction is taking place or in English. It's important that the language used is one that all parties understand and that it adheres to legal requirements​

Axis Bank has a set of essential documents required for Home Loan approval. However, the exact number of documents can vary depending on the specific circumstances of the borrower. There might be some flexibility if you have a strong banking relationship or an excellent credit history.

Axis Bank's Home Loan interest rates are determined based on the borrower's creditworthiness, represented by their Bureau Score. For salaried individuals with a score of 751 and above, the rate is 8.70%, while self-employed applicants with the same score are offered a rate of 9.10%.

Yes, Axis Bank provides a range of Home Loan interest rate options to suit various customer needs, including both fixed and floating-rate loans. This flexibility allows customers to choose an interest rate type according to their financial plans and market outlook.

The floating rate of interest on a Home Loan at Axis Bank changes in response to movements in the RBI's repo rate and other economic factors. These rates are reviewed periodically and adjusted accordingly, impacting the interest rate applied to floating-rate Home Loans.

The effective rate of interest on a Home Loan accounts for the compounding effect and includes both the base rate and the markup. It's the comprehensive cost of borrowing and can be influenced by the loan amount, tenure, and the borrower's profile. For exact numbers, it's advisable to speak with an Axis Bank representative or use online tools for an accurate calculation.

If you have a floating-rate Home Loan, the interest rate may change during the loan tenure. However, if you have a fixed-rate loan, the interest rate will remain constant throughout the tenure.

Applying for a Home Loan with Axis Bank involves certain charges in addition to the interest rate. Prospective borrowers are required to pay a processing fee, which is calculated as a percentage of the principal amount. This fee is subject to a minimum of ₹10,000 plus GST. Additionally, an initial non-refundable fee of ₹5,000 plus GST is to be paid when the application is logged.

A processing fee of up to 1% of the loan amount constitutes the primary Housing Loan Transfer Charges with Axis Bank.

Pre-EMI interest is the interest on the loan amount disbursed by the bank. It is payable every month from the initial date of disbursement until the commencement of the EMI payments.

The EMI consists of the principal amount and the interest on the balance outstanding. It is calculated by taking into account the loan amount, the time frame for repaying the loan and the interest rate on the borrowed sum. The EMI may be subject to change when interest rate changes or a part-payment of the Loan is made.

Every month, part of the EMI is adjusted towards the interest payable and the balance is adjusted towards repayment of the principal.

Yes! You can switch from a floating rate of interest to a fixed rate of interest and vice versa.

This option can be exercised 3 times during the tenor of your loan as per the bank’s approved policy, effective 01 Jan 2024.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) vide its circular no DBR.DIR.BC.No.14/13.03.00/2019-20 on “External Benchmark Based Lending” dated September 04, 2019 and RBI vide circular no. DBR. Dir. No.85/13.03.00/2015-16 on “Interest Rate on Advances” dated March 03,2016 , updated as on September 04,2019 has advised to link all new floating rate personal or retail loans (housing, auto, etc.) and floating rate loans to Micro and Small Enterprises extended by banks with effect from October 01, 2019 to external benchmark which can be one of the following:

• Reserve Bank of India policy repo rate
• Government of India 3-Months Treasury Bill yield published by the Financial Benchmarks India Private Ltd (FBIL)
• Government of India 6-Months Treasury Bill yield published by the FBIL
• Any other benchmark market interest rate published by the FBIL. In line with the above circular, Axis Bank has adopted Repo rate as the external Benchmark lending rate with effect from October 01, 2019.

No, Repo Rate is being determined by Monetary Policy published by Reserve Bank of India

All floating rate loans sanctioned by the Bank with effect from 1st October 2019 are linked to the REPO rate. The rate of interest offered to you for your loan shall be the REPO rate plus spread. Any movement in the REPO rate shall result in your loan being reprised accordingly. For Bank level: - REPO rate would be published on a monthly basis.

For customer level: REPO rate would remain the same till REPO rate reset date. The reset frequency for mortgage loans linked to REPO rate would be once in three months or as decided by the Bank, whichever is earlier. The Bank shall have absolute right to decide and apply the spread over the Repo Rate, ”Spread” shall consist of credit risk premium (which is subject to change in case there is substantial change in your credit assessment as agreed in the loan agreement), operating costs and other costs. The spread will be reset periodically once in three years from the date of first disbursement. Your credit risk premium shall be reviewed by the Bank at regular intervals and shall undergo a revision in case of a substantial change in your credit assessment.

All floating rate loans will be linked to REPO rate. The rate of interest offered to you for your loan shall be the aggregate of REPO rate plus spread. It may be noted that the REPO rate would be reset every three months or as decided by the Bank, whichever is earlier.

Further, the Bank shall have absolute right to decide and apply the spread over the REPO rate, ”Spread” shall consist of credit risk premium (which is subject to change in case there is substantial change in your credit assessment as agreed in the loan agreement), operating costs and other costs. The spread will be reset periodically once in three years from the date of disbursement. Your credit risk premium shall be reviewed by the Bank at regular intervals and shall undergo a revision in case of a substantial change in your credit assessment.

Bank will publish the REPO rate every month on a pre-announced date. The REPO rate applicable to you would be the prevailing repo rate for that month.

For all loans linked to REPO rate, the reset frequency would be three months or as decided by the Bank, whichever is earlier.

Yes, you can at mutually acceptable terms with the Bank.

Banks can specify dates of interest reset which will be linked to either the date of first disbursement or date of review of MCLR/ REPO rate. The MCLR/ REPO rate prevailing on the day the loan is disbursed will be applicable till the next reset date, irrespective of the changes in the MCLR / REPO rate in the interim. For all loans linked to REPO rate, the reset frequency would be three months or as decided by the Bank, whichever is earlier. For example: the Home Loan/ LAP loans disbursed in the month of November 2019, would be due for reset in the month of February 2020 similarly all such loans disbursed in the months of December 2019 would be due for reset in the month of March 2020 and so on, unless there is a change in the Bank’s guidelines in which case the reset would occur as and when there is such change in the Bank’s guidelines.

The reset period and date will be decided on the date of first disbursement.

In case of increase in MCLR on the reset date, the ROI will increase which in turn will impact the EMI/tenor of the loan as per Bank’s policy and will be communicated to the customer.

In case of decrease in MCLR on the reset date, the ROI will decrease which in turn will impact the EMI/tenor of the loan as per Bank’s policy and will be communicated to the customer.

It may be mentioned that the spread/margin of the loan would continue to remain the same.

Illustration: Consider a scenario where first disbursement of the loan is done on April 15, 2016 under MCLR-6 month’s benchmark rate, with the 6 months MCLR being 9.20% p.a. with a spread/margin of 20 basis points (bps). In such a case the effective rate would be 9.40% p.a.

In the above scenario, the effective rate of 9.40% p.a. would remain constant till the next reset date i.e Oct 2016.

On Oct 2016, the loans would be reset with the applicable 6 months MCLR rate as on that date.

It may be mentioned that the spread/margin of the loan would continue to remain the same. e.g. If the 6 months MCLR is 9.10% p.a. as on OCT 2016, then revised rate applicable for the loan would be 9.10% + 0.20% = 9.30% p.a. w.e.f. Oct 2016.

The Bank will inform you if there is a change in rate of interest due to a reset of the REPO rate as and when such change is affected in your loan account via SMS alert on your registered mobile, The consequential change impact would initially be made to the loan tenure i.e. the loan tenure will be increased; however if maximum tenure of the loan has already been availed, then the EMI would have to be modified and the revised EMI will be intimated to you

All existing loans linked to Base Rate/ MCLR will continue till its repayment. All existing Borrowers will however have the option to shift to the Repo Rate linked loan at mutually acceptable terms. Thus, in case of partly disbursed loans, for subsequent disbursements, the Base Rate/MCLR will continue to be applicable, provided the Borrower does not exercise the option to move to the Repo Rate linked loan at mutually acceptable terms

(BR= Base rate, MRR= Mortgage reference rate, BPLR = Bank prime lending rate)

For all new loans sanctioned from October 1, 2019, the Bank has discontinued offering loans linked with Base Rate/MRR/BPLR/MCLR. However, the existing loans will continue on the respective BR/MRR/BPLR/MCLR till its repayment, provided the borrower does not exercise the option to move to the Repo Rate linked loan at mutually acceptable terms

For changing from existing bench mark rate of BR/MRR/BPLR/MCLR to Repo Rate based benchmark rate, the customer will be required to visit the nearest loan center, execute an agreement for conversion into Repo Rate based benchmark.

If customer is on MRR/BPLR/Base Rate/MCLR, customer can request to move to Repo Rate by paying an administrative fee to the Bank. Hence, the benchmark rate and spread might undergo a change as per the customer’s request

No, there is no option to move back from REPO RATE to Base rate/BPLR/MRR/MCLR

YES, Base rate/MCLR will be reviewed by the Bank from time to time and it may or may not change

Applicable REPO RATE for each month will be updated on Axis Bank Website

You will come to know through our Website / SMS / Email/ letter as deemed fit

Customers will have the option to get the disbursement either on MCLR or Repo Rate
