HI Sreekanth,
I had taken an home loan of Rs.34,00,000 (tenure: 15years) through SBI Maxgain last year.
I read your article about home loan & mutual fund investment;
https://www.relakhs.com/investing-mutual-funds-paying-home-loan/.
So, I started investing in HDFC balanced fund.
But I have a query and I need your clarification:
Case 1:
My EMI is 34K and if I put additional amount of 14k ie, total 48K per month from Jun'18,
I will close my home loan in Apr'26
I have to pay Rs.16,13,000 as interest.
Case 2:
If I invest in mutual funds and my returns are 14% (for example),
I will get Rs.20,77,000 from MF and I will close the home loan in Jun'25
I have to pay Rs.20,50,000 as interest.
My query is though I close early by investing in mutual funds, but I end up paying more interest.
So, please clarify me whether I can go for additional amount in EMI itself.
Thanks in advance,
Ram
