HDFC Bank Home Loan at a glance
HDFC Bank prices home loans a little above the cheapest public sector offers, but is often faster on property approval and disbursement. Rates are repo-linked and reset quarterly for most borrowers.
Part-prepayment goes straight to principal and is free on floating-rate loans, which makes an annual top-up payment the most efficient way to shorten a 20-year loan.

Floating-rate home loans to individuals carry no prepayment penalty in India. Personal and car loans often charge 2–5% of the outstanding amount — check before you prepay.
Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum HDFC Bank home loan tenure?
Up to 30 years for most borrowers, subject to your age at the end of the tenure. A shorter tenure raises the EMI but cuts the total interest sharply — on a ₹30 lakh loan, 20 years instead of 30 saves more than ₹20 lakh in interest.
Is the HDFC Bank home loan rate fixed or floating?
The standard product is a repo-linked floating rate, so the EMI or the tenure changes when the RBI moves the policy rate. Fixed-rate variants exist but usually start at a higher rate.
Can I prepay my HDFC Bank home loan?
Floating-rate home loans to individuals carry no prepayment penalty in India. Prepaying in the first five years saves the most, because that is when interest dominates the EMI.
What is the EMI on a ₹30 lakh HDFC Bank home loan?
At the indicative rate of 9.12% over 20 years the EMI is about ₹27,224. Over 240 months that totals ₹65,33,698, of which roughly ₹35,33,698 is interest.
