Loan Comparison
Two rates on the same principal and tenure.
Two EMIs on the same principal and tenure at rate A and rate B. The gap in total payable is the number that matters for a refinance decision, before fees.
Worked example: ₹10,00,000 over 20 years at 8.5% versus 9.5%. The monthly gap looks small. The total-interest gap over 240 months does not. Balance-transfer fees can eat the first year of that gap. Subtract the fee before you call it a win.
