What happens when you stop paying your home loan EMIs? Here’s what the bank can do

Missing home loan EMIs triggers a legal process, potentially leading to property auction. After 90 days of non-payment, your loan becomes an NPA. Lenders then issue a 60-day demand notice under SARFAESI Act. Failure to pay allows banks to take possession and auction the property, but borrowers can settle dues anytime before sale completion.
