1. What is EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed monthly payment made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. For HDFC mortgage loans, EMI includes both principal and interest components.

2. How Does the EMI Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

\[ EMI = \frac{P \times R \times (1 + R)^N}{(1 + R)^N - 1} \]

Where:

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (INR)
\( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
\( N \) — Number of monthly installments (loan tenure in years × 12)

Explanation: This formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to completely pay off a loan over its tenure, accounting for both principal and interest components.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation helps borrowers understand their monthly financial commitment, plan their budget effectively, and make informed decisions about loan affordability before applying for an HDFC mortgage loan.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the principal loan amount in INR, annual interest rate in percentage, and loan tenure in years. All values must be positive numbers for accurate calculation.
