1. What is the Loan Amount Formula?

The loan amount formula calculates the maximum principal amount that can be borrowed based on a fixed monthly payment (EMI), interest rate, and loan tenure. It helps borrowers determine how much they can afford to borrow while maintaining manageable monthly payments.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the loan amount formula:

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

Where:

\( P \) — Loan amount (principal)
\( EMI \) — Equated Monthly Installment (monthly payment)
\( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
\( N \) — Total number of monthly payments (tenure in years × 12)

Explanation: This formula calculates the present value of an annuity, determining how much loan principal would generate the specified EMI payments over the given term at the stated interest rate.

3. Importance of Loan Amount Calculation

Details: Calculating the affordable loan amount helps borrowers make informed financial decisions, avoid over-borrowing, and ensure monthly payments remain within their budget constraints.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your affordable monthly payment (EMI), annual interest rate as a percentage, and loan tenure in years. All values must be positive numbers to calculate the maximum loan amount you can afford.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is EMI?
A: EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment - the fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month.

Q2: How is monthly interest rate calculated?
A: Monthly interest rate = (Annual interest rate ÷ 100) ÷ 12. For example, 12% annual rate becomes 1% monthly rate.

Q3: Does this calculation include other loan fees?
A: No, this calculation only considers the principal and interest components. Additional fees like processing fees, insurance, or taxes are not included.

Q4: What if I want to make a down payment?
A: The calculated loan amount represents the principal you can borrow. If you make a down payment, your total purchase price would be loan amount + down payment.

Q5: Are there any limitations to this calculation?
A: This assumes fixed interest rates throughout the loan term and doesn't account for variable rates, payment holidays, or prepayments that might affect the actual loan amount.
