Loan Against Property in India 2026: Unlock Home Equity at Low Rates
A loan against property (LAP) in India lets you borrow large amounts — typically 50–70% of your property’s market value — by mortgaging your home or commercial property as collateral. Interest rates start from 8.5% p.a. — significantly lower than personal loans — making it ideal for business expansion, debt consolidation, higher education, or any large planned expense. You continue living in or using your property throughout the loan tenure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a loan against a property that still has an existing home loan?
Yes — this is called a “second mortgage” or “top-up loan.” The combined outstanding (existing home loan + new LAP) cannot exceed 70% of the property’s current market value. Approval depends on your income’s ability to service both EMIs.
What happens to my property if I default on LAP?
After repeated defaults and legal notices, the lender can invoke SARFAESI Act powers to take possession and auction the property. Always contact the lender proactively if repayment difficulties arise — restructuring or EMI deferment is available.
Is loan against property interest tax deductible?
Yes, if the loan amount is used for business purposes — interest is deductible under Section 36(1)(iii). If used for personal purposes, no deduction is available under the New Tax Regime. Check with your CA for specific applicability at incometax.gov.in.
