What is a Loan Against Property?
A loan against property (LAP) is a type of secured loan where the borrower’s property is used as collateral. This loan type is popular due to its lower interest rates and flexibility in usage.
Working Mechanism of a Loan Against Property
In a LAP, the lender provides you with funds equivalent to a certain percentage of your property’s market value. This loan must be repaid over a specified term in the form of Equated Monthly Installments (EMIs).
Understanding EMI
EMI or Equated Monthly Installment is the amount paid by the borrower to the lender each month. It includes both the principal amount and interest accumulated.
Calculating Loan Against Property EMI
The EMI for any loan depends on three main factors – the loan amount, the rate of interest, and the loan tenure. The formula to calculate the EMI is: EMI = [P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1] Where P represents the loan amount R is the monthly interest rate (annual rate of interest/12/100) N denotes the loan tenure in months
Example:
Let’s assume you’ve taken a LAP of ₹20 lakhs for a tenure of 15 years, with an annual interest rate of 11%.
Using the formula, your monthly EMI calculation would look like this:
EMI = [2000000 x (11/12/100) x (1+(11/12/100))^180]/[(1+(11/12/100))^180-1] ≈ ₹22,024.
