Property ROI Scenario
Compare a purchase-and-sale scenario with a fixed deposit, using your own assumptions
Illustrative scenario, not a forecast or investment advice. Every rate below is your assumption.
Your assumptions
Loan assumptions
Down payment: ₹75,00,000. Slider capped at 80% of price for this illustration; your lender sets the real limit.
Illustrative monthly EMI
₹39,052
60 EMIs paid over the holding period; the outstanding principal is repaid from the sale.
Interest rates change; confirm with your bank.
Property gain in this scenario (illustrative)
₹15,06,533
Assumed sale value after 5 years at 5% p.a.: ₹1,53,15,379
How the property gain is built
Same cash flows in fixed deposits (your assumed rate)
Assumes the same amounts are placed in fixed deposits on the same dates (down payment at the start, then an amount equal to each EMI every month), compounded quarterly. A single FD does not accept monthly top-ups; this models a series of deposits or a recurring deposit.
Assumptions behind these results
- Purchase price ₹1,20,00,000; appreciation 5% p.a., compounded yearly; held 5 years.
- Loan ₹45,00,000 at 8.5% p.a. over 20 years, reducing balance, EMIs monthly from month 1.
- FD rate 7% p.a., compounded quarterly, on each deposit from its date.
- Annualised figures are internal rates of return on monthly cash flows, annualised as (1 + monthly rate)^12 - 1.
Not included
- Taxes: capital gains tax on the sale, and TDS or income tax on FD interest
- Stamp duty and registration
- Brokerage
- Maintenance
- Property tax
- Rental income

What this tool does
It works through one scenario you define: purchase price, an appreciation rate you assume and an optional loan, and compares it with fixed deposits made on the same dates at a rate you assume. Both sides are annualised as a cash-flow IRR.
What it does not do
It does not forecast prices, rents or interest rates. It leaves out capital gains tax, TDS on FD interest, stamp duty, registration, brokerage, maintenance, property tax and rental income.
Before you decide
