Fixed-Rate Home Loans at KVB
So, if you have taken a fixed-rate home loan, then the EMI remains unchanged throughout the loan tenure. The EMI changes only if you make part payments or request for a change in the term.
Floating-Rate Home Loans at KVB
In floating-rate home loans, the EMI changes periodically.
- The EMI decreases if external REPO rates fall.
- On the other hand, the EMI increases if external REPO rates rise
