What is Mortgage Recasting?

Mortgage recasting, also called re-amortization, allows you to make a lump-sum payment toward your principal and have the loan re-amortized with the new balance. This reduces your monthly payment while keeping the same interest rate and term (or optionally shortening the term).

✓ Advantages:

  • Lower monthly payments
  • Keep your current interest rate
  • No credit check required
  • Lower fees than refinancing
  • Reduce total interest paid

⚠ Considerations:

  • Not all lenders offer recasting
  • Minimum lump sum required (typically ₹100,000+)
  • Processing fee applies
  • Won't lower interest rate
  • Not available for FHA/VA loans
