A "low interest" loan shouldn't mean you have very little interest in paying it back!
One of the key hurdles to purchasing a home of your own is amassing the pile of cash required for a down payment. By some guesstimates, it can take at least a few years to get your hands on a decent 10 to 15 percent. As the Reserve Bank of India introduced several new guidelines like lowering of interest rates and EMIs for housing loans, potential home buyers with less bucks in their account to put down for that hefty first payment, are now spoilt for reasonable choices.
Asha Home loan is a customized financial product explicitly made for Axis bank clients to fulfil their dream of owning a house. With a bunch of tailored options including the ambitious Asha Home Loan Scheme, it didn’t take the bank long to become one of the biggest players in the House Loan Business.

To avail Asha Home Loan, your joint family income need be only INR 8000 per month based on where you live. This is really nominal when compared to schemes offered by other banks.
