When you prepay a home loan carrying an 8.5% interest rate, you effectively secure an 8.5% tax-free saving by avoiding future interest charges. Conversely, if your SIP yields 12% to 14%, the net arbitrage spread can build substantial additional wealth over a 15-year loan tenure.
If your home loan interest rate is high (above 9%) or you prefer peace of mind, prepayment is wise. If your loan rate is lower (8.5%) and you have a 10+ year horizon, investing surplus in equity SIPs generally generates higher net wealth.
