Home Loan EMIs have seen a considerable decrease in recent years owing to prudent financial policies by the RBI. Currently, the base rate starts at 6.75% on Home Loans, giving one of the lowest monthly EMI amounts that Indians have seen.
The EMI amount for a home loan depends on various factors, like the interest rate, the loan amount, repayment tenure period, and other loan terms that you and the lender agree upon.

Tips to get the best interest rate for your Home Loan
Only with a good credit score will you be able to bargain with your lender for a low-interest loan and for the loan amount you want.

So it’s better to keep a good credit score before applying for the home loan you want.
