1. What is EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is a fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. EMIs are used to pay off both interest and principal each month, so that over a specified number of years, the loan is paid off in full.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the EMI formula:

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

Where:

\( P \) — Principal loan amount (currency)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
\( n \) — Loan tenure in months

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to fully amortize a loan over its term, accounting for both principal and interest components.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation helps borrowers understand their repayment obligations, plan their finances, and compare different loan offers to make informed borrowing decisions.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the principal amount in currency, annual interest rate as a percentage, and loan tenure in months. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What factors affect EMI amount?
A: EMI amount is primarily determined by three factors: principal amount, interest rate, and loan tenure. Higher principal or interest rates increase EMI, while longer tenure reduces EMI.

Q2: Can EMI change during loan tenure?
A: For fixed-rate loans, EMI remains constant throughout the tenure. For floating-rate loans, EMI may change when interest rates change.

Q3: How is EMI split between principal and interest?
A: Initially, a larger portion goes toward interest payment. As the loan matures, the interest component decreases and principal component increases.

Q4: What is prepayment and how does it affect EMI?
A: Prepayment means paying extra amount toward the principal. It can either reduce the EMI amount or shorten the loan tenure, depending on the lender's policy.

Q5: Are there any hidden charges in EMI calculations?
A: The basic EMI calculation includes only principal and interest. Additional charges like processing fees, insurance, or taxes are typically separate and should be considered in the total loan cost.
