1. What is EMI Calculation?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) calculation helps determine the fixed monthly payment amount for a loan, consisting of both principal and interest components, over the loan tenure.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (INR)
• \( R \) — Monthly interest rate (decimal)
• \( N \) — Number of monthly installments
• \( EMI \) — 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.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation helps borrowers plan their finances, understand repayment obligations, and compare different loan offers effectively.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in INR, annual interest rate in 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 determined by three main factors: principal amount, interest rate, and loan tenure.

Q2: How does tenure affect EMI?
A: Longer tenure reduces EMI amount but increases total interest paid, while shorter tenure increases EMI but reduces total interest.

Q3: Are there any hidden charges in EMI calculation?
A: This calculator shows only principal and interest components. Actual loans may include processing fees, insurance, or other charges.

Q4: Can I prepay my loan?
A: Most lenders allow prepayment, but may charge prepayment penalties. Check with your lender for specific terms.

Q5: Is the interest rate fixed or floating?
A: This calculator assumes fixed interest rate. For floating rates, EMI may change during the loan tenure.
