At present home loans are available at 8.5% average interest rates from the nationalized banks, private banks and non banking finance institutions. After subsidy of 3% under PMAY-G, the effective interest rate come down to about 5.5% which will further result in lower EMI and hence less burden of interest on the borrower.
