How it functions – If you deposit any amount in your Super Saver account once the loan is disbursed, it shall reduce the principal outstanding. In addition, you will only be charged interest on net principal outstanding i.e. loan amount minus any additional funds parked in the account. In case, there are any additional funds parked, you have the facility to withdraw them as per your needs.

Balance Transfer facility

As there are no prepayment charges, you can pay your home loan without making any prepayment charges. If you opt to keep some extra funds in your Super Saver account, it will only help you to make the most of the benefits of prepayment along with a provision of withdrawing them whenever you wish. It is only valid on floating interest rates.  

As per this product, the cycle for both principal repayment and interest will remain the same i.e. 10th of every month. 

There is two limit reduction option available – EMI Based Reduction and Equated Principal Amortization. As per Equated Principal Amortization, the principal outstanding will reduce by an equal sum on each repayment cycle date. When you divide the total loan amount by number of instalments over the period of the loan, you will have the reduction in the principal amount. 

As per EMI based reduction, the sum of the principal and interest component payable on the repayment cycle is equal throughout the loan term. Therefore, the principal component which is repayable by you on a monthly basis is according to the amortization schedule drawn at the start of the loan. The interest component, for both the limit reduction, gets calculated on the net utilized drawing power (i.e. drawing power set in the Super Saver account minus End of Day (EoD) balance of additional funds parked). You cannot shift, between EMI based reduction to Equated Amortization reduction or vice-versa. 

Repaying the loan – Make sure you have maintained sufficient amount of funds in your Super Saver account. This will help you to repay the monthly principal and interest repayments. You even have the provision of transferring your funds electronically or deposit a cheque into your account at one of the branches of Axis Bank. 

You can optimize your savings on your Super Saver Home Loan account, all you need to do is to park short-term excess funds you have in this account. You should make your Super Saver Home Loan account your key/operative account. 

If you have maintained a balance over and above the drawing limit, then in that case, you will not be offered any interest. 

If you have issued a cheque, which is due for clearance, on the repayment cycle due date, make sure you maintain a minimum balance for total repayment (both principal & interest) due and cheque amount to ensure that both the transactions get honored. 

In case, there is no apt balance in Super Saver account for the repayment, then the account will be charged penal interest @ 24% p.a. or 2% p.m.

You cannot use the ATM Card, provided to you with Super Saver Home Loan account, at merchant outlets.

How interest gets calculated?

Interest calculations on the Super Saver account will be made on End of Day (EoD) drawing power set for your Super Saver account minus any additional funds parked in the account. This will lead to savings on the home loan equivalent to the funds parked.

For e.g. You have availed of a loan of Rs. 100 Lacs and you have parked Rs. 2 lacs on an average in the Super Saver account.

The utilized drawing limit in this case will be Rs. 100 lacs minus Rs. 2 lacs i.e. Rs. 98 Lacs. Interest payable at the end of the repayment cycle will be calculated on Rs. 98 Lacs resulting in savings on interest payable on the loan.

Customers who have availed disbursement or received a sanction prior to March 31, 2016 will continue to operate on base rate. Existing customers can get in touch with our customer care, if they wish to switch to MCLR.
