EMI Calculator India
Calculate monthly loan payments, total interest and repayment cost. Compare loan scenarios using your own lenderβs interest rate.
How the EMI calculation works
Formula and timing
For principal P, monthly rate r and n monthly payments, EMI = P Γ r Γ (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n β 1). We divide the annual percentage rate by 12 and 100 to get r. At a 0% rate, EMI is P/n. This assumes equal monthly payments and a constant interest rate.
Worked example
A βΉ10 lakh loan at 8.5% a year for 10 years has an estimated EMI of βΉ12,399. Total repayment is about βΉ14.88 lakh, including roughly βΉ4.88 lakh interest. Rounding and the lenderβs payment dates can change the final amount.
Compare loan offers
Enter the same loan amount and term for each offer. A lower EMI can reflect a longer loan rather than a lower cost. Compare total interest, processing charges, insurance requirements and any prepayment restrictions alongside the displayed monthly payment.
What the result leaves out
The estimate excludes fees, late charges, broken-period interest, taxes and changes in floating interest rates. The extra-payment illustration assumes immediate principal reduction. Your lenderβs amortisation schedule and contractual terms govern actual repayments.
Choosing a manageable payment
Use a household budget to compare the EMI with essential spending and existing debts. Test a higher rate and a shorter term to see the sensitivity. This tool supports planning; it does not assess eligibility or recommend a lender.
