Which type of home loan interest rate should you choose?
Choosing between a fixed and a floating home loan interest rate hinges on your financial outlook and risk appetite. Here’s how to determine the best fit for your circumstances:
Fixed interest rate
- Ideal for those seeking consistency and risk aversion in their financial plan
- Best suited if there's an anticipation of rising interest rates
- A fixed-rate remains constant, which benefits planning but may result in higher costs if market rates decrease.
Floating interest rate
- Suitable for individuals comfortable with market fluctuations and possess a more flexible financial plan.
- It is preferred if you predict a decline in interest rates, potentially lowering your overall interest costs.
- Floating rates vary with market conditions, which could be less favourable during high volatility and rising rates, increasing the cost over time.
Your decision should balance your need for financial stability and your willingness to navigate possible market changes. A fixed-rate offers peace of mind, while a floating rate can offer savings if market conditions are favourable. Consider current trends and future market forecasts to make a prudent decision that aligns with your long-term financial goals.
How to reduce home loan interest burden?
Mitigating the impact of home loan interest rates on your finances can be strategic. Here's how you can lessen the interest burden effectively:
- Higher down payment: A larger initial payment can significantly lower your outstanding loan balance and, consequently, the interest.
- Increase your EMI: If affordable, increasing your monthly repayment can shorten the loan tenure, thus reducing the total interest paid.
- Shorten loan tenure: Opting for a shorter loan period decreases the interest accumulation over the life of the loan.
- Consider balance transfer: Transfer your loan to a lender offering lower interest rates. For instance, switching to a bank like Axis Bank could result in more competitive rates, easing your interest burden with a straightforward transfer process.

Yes, Axis Bank offers a variety of Home Loan Interest Rate options to fit different customers' needs. You can choose between fixed and floating-rate loans to align with your financial goals and your perception of the market.
The Home Loan interest rate remains tied to the RBI's repo rate and other economic factors. This means that when the repo rate changes, the Interest Rate on your floating-rate Home Loan will also change. The bank reviews and adjusts these rates regularly so your Interest Rate might fluctuate over time.
With a floating-rate loan, your Home Loan interest rate can fluctuate over time which means your monthly payments might increase or decrease. On the other hand, if you opt for a fixed-rate loan, you will have the same Interest Rate for the entire loan period.
When you apply for a Home Loan with Axis Bank, there are some extra costs to keep in mind:
- Up to 1% of the loan amount or ₹10,000 (whichever is higher) + GST (as applicable)
- An upfront processing fee of ₹5,000 plus GST shall be collected at the time of application submission. The balance processing fee, as applicable, shall be collected at the time of loan disbursement.
- The processing fee is a non-refundable fee collected by the Bank for the purpose of reviewing the loan application and is independent of the outcome of such assessment.
Yes. If you have a good credit score, you will be more likely to enjoy a lower Home Loan interest rate. But if your credit score is poor, you might end up with a higher Interest Rate.
Current Home Loan rates can change periodically, depending on different factors, such as market conditions, economic indicators, loan rates, and lender policies. Additionally, the frequency of these changes also depends on the benchmark Interest Rates your bank uses and its Interest Rate reset schedule.
The main factors that influence your Home Loan Interest Rate include market condition, credit score, loan amount and tenure, the type of Home Loan interest rate you choose, the lender's policies, loan-to-value ratio and income stability.
The processing fee for a Home Loan is calculated as follows:
- Up to 1% of the loan amount or ₹10,000 (whichever is higher) + GST is levied
- An upfront processing fee of ₹5,000 plus GST shall be collected at the time of application submission. The balance processing fee, as applicable, shall be collected at the time of loan disbursement.
The processing fee is a non-refundable fee collected by the Bank for the purpose of reviewing the loan application and is independent of the outcome of such assessment.
