That is why our structured housing loans are designed to offer maximum flexibility and convenience, providing customers with diverse repayment options tailored to their needs. This way, it is possible to choose what is most convenient for you and make your dream of homeownership a reality.” 
DFCC Home Loans presents a range of repayment options to accommodate diverse financial circumstances and preferences. 

The first option entails stepped-up repayments with equal instalments. During the initial three years, customers are required to repay only 10 percent of the loan equity, followed by increments to 30 percent in years three to six and 60 percent in years six to 10.  

The second option is tailored for fixed-income earners and professionals exclusively, provides a five-year grace period of five years, followed by equal capital or structured repayments aligned with the customer’s repayment capacity. This option extends to a maximum loan tenure of 20 years, with predicted future income after five years.  
The third option offers an alternative approach, with annual principal payments due as a lump-sum payment at the end of each year, though monthly interest payments will continue to apply. This option is available for a maximum loan tenure of 10 years. 

And the final option presents the opportunity for equal monthly capital repayments, with 50 percent of the capital remaining to be repaid as a lump-sum payment at the end of the loan tenure. This option provides a further allowance to roll over the 50 percent remaining capital repayment for an additional five years at the end of the loan tenure, should it be required.  

Individuals eligible for the structured DFCC Home Loans include salaried employees with a salary above Rs.100,000 and with at least one year of employment, self-employed professionals earning at least Rs.100,000 per month and having proof of income for one year and self-employed individuals with at least three years of audited financial statements to show a minimum monthly income of Rs.100,000.
