What is EMI?
EMI refers to the monthly installments to be paid by a borrower till the expiry of the loan tenure. The installments combine a portion of both principal and interest. As you would know, Jammu and Kashmir Bank generally provides a home loan on floating rate basis which means the interest rates will keep changing according to the RBI’s take on repo rate, the rate at which the central bank lends to commercial banks. The cut or hike in repo rate can make lenders revise their interest rates. Though the equated monthly installments (EMIs) remain constant throughout the tenure, the interest and principal components undergo a change with the change in interest rates over the course of a loan.
