How it works

Equated monthly instalments spread a loan into a fixed payment. This uses the standard reducing-balance formula used for home, car, and personal loans in India. You enter the principal, the annual interest rate, and the tenure in months. The result is the EMI, the total you would pay, and how much of that is interest.

EMI = P × i × (1 + i)^n / ((1 + i)^n − 1), where i is the monthly interest rate.

Frequently asked questions

Does this include processing fees?

No. Banks may add fees, insurance, or a prepayment charge that is not in this EMI.

Is the rate monthly or yearly?

You enter the yearly rate. The calculator converts it to a monthly rate before applying the formula.
