1. What is the EMI Formula?

The EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) formula calculates the fixed monthly payment amount for a home loan from Bank of Baroda. It includes both principal and interest components, spread evenly over the loan tenure.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the EMI formula:

Where:

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

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to pay off a loan over a specified period, accounting for both principal and interest.
