Education Loan EMI Calculator

- Section 80E allows you to deduct the entire interest portion (no upper limit) for up to 8 years, this is one of the most generous deductions available.
- Compare public sector bank rates against private lenders and NBFCs, the spread on education loans can be wide.
- If studying abroad, watch for currency risk on loans disbursed or repaid in a different currency than your future income.
