Home Loan+SIP: How you can repay Rs 1 cr, 20-year loan in just 11.6 years and save Rs 59 lakh on repayment
Home loans are most likely large amount. Specially in Tier-1 cities; they can exceed the Rs 1 crore mark. When you take a large home loan for a long period of time, you end up paying more in interest than the principal amount. E.g., if you take a Rs 1 crore loan at an 8.50 per cent annual interest rate for 20 years, your interest in those years will be over Rs 1.083 crore, or Rs 8.23 lakh more than your principal amount.
Purchasing a home is a dream for many, but it is a costly affair, and one depends on loans from banks or housing financing companies to buy a home. Home loans are most likely large amount. Specially in Tier-1 cities; they can exceed the Rs 1 crore mark. When you take a large home loan for a long period of time, you end up paying more in interest than the principal amount. E.g., if you take a Rs 1 crore loan at an 8.50 per cent annual interest rate for 20 years, your interest in those years will be over Rs 1.083 crore, or Rs 8.23 lakh more than your principal amount. But what if you make an investment simultaneously with your home loan repayment, and that investment helps you repay your home loan years earlier than the original loan duration, and also saves you a great deal of money?
Not only may such an option may lighten your burden of debt, but it can also ease your psychological pressure.
But how is it possible?
It can be done by making a monthly SIP worth one-fourths of your equated monthly installment (EMI) of your home.
Even if you get a 12 per cent annual return on your SIP investments, you can accumulate an amount that can help you repay your 20-year loan in just 11 years and six months.
Not only that, you can also save Rs 52.50 by repaying your home loan in that duration.
Here's how you can plan it out, as per Finnovate.
Here’s a breakdown of the figures:
1. Home Loan Details:
◦ Loan Amount: Rs 1 crore
◦ Interest Rate: 8.50%
◦ Tenure: 20 years (240 months)
◦ Monthly EMI: Rs 86,000
2. SIP Strategy:
◦ SIP Amount: 25% of EMI = Rs 21,500 per month
◦ Investment Period: 20 years
◦ Expected Return: 12% annually
With this strategy, let’s analyse how the SIP investment aids in accelerating the loan repayment:

Nehal Mota, Co-Founder & CEO, Finnovate, said: "Here's the magic: by diligently paying your EMI and simultaneously investing in SIP, you'll reach a point where your SIP returns can cover your remaining loan amount. In simpler terms, your investments will grow to a size where they can clear your loan balance, making you debt-free much earlier than the original loan tenure.
"In this scenario, a loan that would typically take 240 months (20 years) to close could potentially be paid off in just 138 months (a little over 11 years)!"
How will you save over Rs 59 lakh
◦ So, you see that after repaying your loan for 138 months and investing in SIPs for the same duration, you will have a surplus of Rs 49,823.
◦ SIP corpus (63,37,661)- Total balance Rs (62,87,838)= Rs 49,823
◦ On the other hand, in a 20-year loan, your repayment amount, including interest and principal, would have been Rs 2,08,27,758.
◦ But since you are repaying the loan in 11 years and six months (138 months, your total repayment amount will be = EMI amountX138= Rs 86,782X138= Rs 1,19,75,916
Investment in SIP= SIP amountX138= Rs 21,500X138= Rs 29,67,000
Total amount you paid in repayment and SIP= Rs 1,19,75,916+29,67,000= 1,49,42,916
Total amount you will save on home loan= Rs 2,08,27,758-Rs 1,49,42,916= Rs 58,84,842
So, on a Rs 1 crore home loan, you will save nearly Rs 58.85 lakh if you make an SIP of Rs 21,500 for 138 months.
