Keep at least 6 months of expenses as an emergency fund untouched. Ideally 12 months in India given job market uncertainty.
If paying outright consumes more than 30% of your liquid savings, EMI can preserve your liquidity — but only if the EMI fits within your monthly surplus.
Yes. All figures use Indian Rupees and Indian number formatting (lakhs, crores). Logic is calibrated for urban Indian financial situations.
