Key Takeaways

What Is a Home Loan Top-Up?

A home loan top-up from Piramal Finance is an additional amount you can borrow over your existing home loan. You do not need to mortgage a new property or start a new loan application. Approval is based on your repayment record, property value, and outstanding balance of your current Piramal Finance home loan.

How Does a Home Loan Top-Up Work?

Suppose you have a Rs. 40 lakh home loan with Piramal Finance and have repaid Rs. 10 lakhs over 5 years. If your repayment history is strong and your property’s value has appreciated, we may offer you an additional Rs. 5 to 15 lakhs.

The top-up amount can be clubbed with your current EMI or paid separately. Interest rates are usually like, or slightly higher than, your home loan rate, and the tenure generally matches the remaining term of your existing loan.
