Loan Against PropertyWhat Is a Loan Against Property?
A Loan Against Property (LAP) is a secured loan where an eligible residential, commercial or other acceptable property is offered as security to the lender.
Unlike an unsecured personal loan, a LAP is backed by property, which may allow eligible borrowers to access a potentially higher loan amount or longer repayment tenure, depending on the lender’s policies and the property.
The funds may be used for permitted personal or business purposes, subject to the lender’s terms.
LoanTigers helps you understand the key aspects of LAP before you approach a lender.

What Is a Loan Against Property EMI?
A Loan Against Property (LAP) is a secured loan where an eligible property is offered as security to the lender. Your EMI generally depends on the loan amount, interest rate and repayment tenure.
EMI = P × r × (1 + r)n ÷ [(1 + r)n − 1]
P = Principal r = Monthly interest rate n = Number of monthly instalments
Factors That Affect Your LAP EMI
Loan AmountHigher borrowing generally increases EMI and total interest.
Interest RateA higher rate increases the overall borrowing cost.
TenureA longer tenure can lower EMI but may increase total interest.
Property ValueProperty value can influence the secured loan amount and LTV.
How Much Can You Borrow Against Your Property?
The loan amount is not determined by property value alone.
Factors Lenders May Consider
• Property market value
• Loan-to-value ratio
• Applicant income
• Existing EMIs
• Credit profile
• Repayment capacity
• Property type
• Property location
• Ownership
• Legal documentation
• Loan purpose
• Lender policies
• Loan-to-value ratio
• Applicant income
• Existing EMIs
• Credit profile
• Repayment capacity
• Property type
• Property location
• Ownership
• Legal documentation
• Loan purpose
• Lender policies
For example, a property may have a particular market value, but the lender may finance only a proportion of that value depending on its assessment.
Remember: Higher property value does not automatically mean higher loan eligibility. Your overall financial profile and the lender’s assessment are equally important.

The applicant’s age at application and expected age at loan maturity.

Loan Amount + Interest Rate + Tenure
A longer tenure can reduce the monthly EMI but may increase the total interest payable over the life of the loan.
Use the LoanTigers LAP EMI Calculator to estimate your potential repayment.
Illustrative Example
Loan Amount: ₹50,00,000
Interest Rate: 10% p.a.
Tenure: 15 years
