Example
Pay more than the minimum due

Split big FDs across banks
Splitting ₹10 lakh across 3 banks keeps each deposit, with its interest, within the ₹5 lakh deposit insurance cover per bank, so all of it is insured.

Prepay a little every month
Paying ₹3,000 extra a month on a ₹30 lakh home loan at 8.5% for 20 years saves about ₹8,33,493 in interest and closes the loan 4 years 5 months early.

Know your zero-tax salary
In the new regime for FY 2026-27, a salary up to ₹12,75,000 pays zero income tax: the ₹75,000 standard deduction brings it to ₹12,00,000, which the rebate covers in full.
