EMI Calculation & Repayment

frequently asked questions

How is education loan interest calculated?

The bank calculates interest on your education loan based on three things: how much you borrow, the interest rate, and how long you take to repay. If your loan has a moratorium period, interest keeps accumulating even though you’re not making payments. Some lenders charge simple interest during this period, while others apply compound interest, which can make the total repayment amount much higher.

Lenders look at multiple things before approving an education loan. They check your loan amount, co-applicants’ income, credit history, and even the university you’re applying to. Some banks prefer students enrolling in high-ranked universities, as they have better job prospects. If you have a co-applicant with a stable income or can offer collateral you’re more likely to get approved with a better interest rate.

Your loan tenure plays a big role in how much you’ll pay every month and how much you’ll end up paying in total. A longer tenure brings down your monthly EMI, making repayment easier, but it also increases the total interest you’ll pay over time. On the flip side, a shorter tenure makes your EMI higher but helps you clear the loan faster and pay less in total interest. Finding a balance that works for you is key.

Yes, many lenders offer unsecured education loans, meaning you don’t need to pledge property or assets. However, these loans usually come with higher interest rates because banks take on more risk. If you can provide collateral (like property, fixed deposits, or LIC policies), you’re more likely to get a lower interest rate and better loan terms.

Absolutely. Under Section 80E of the Income Tax Act, you can deduct the interest paid on your education loan from your taxable income for up to 8 years after you start repaying. This tax benefit applies to both domestic and international education loans, making it a great way to reduce your tax burden.
