During the first few years of repayment, you pay more towards the levied interest and less towards the principal. So, during this time, it is better for you make part prepayments. Most lenders like State Bank of India, Bank of Baroda, Canara Bank, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, allow you to part prepay your home loan without charging any fees. This will help reduce the principal and thus reduce the total interest levied on you.
