1. What is the Student Loan EMI Calculator?

The Student Loan EMI Calculator with Multiple Interest Rates calculates the total monthly payment (EMI) required to repay multiple student loans with different interest rates over a specified period. It helps borrowers understand their combined monthly repayment obligation.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula for each loan and sums the results:

\[ EMI = \sum_{i=1}^{n} \left[ \frac{P_i \times R_i \times (1 + R_i)^N}{(1 + R_i)^N - 1} \right] \]

Where:

$ P_i $ — Principal amount for loan i ($)
$ R_i $ — Monthly interest rate for loan i (decimal)
$ N $ — Number of monthly payments
$ EMI $ — Total Equated Monthly Installment ($)

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment required to fully amortize each loan over the specified term, then sums all individual EMIs to get the total monthly payment.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation is crucial for financial planning, budgeting, and ensuring that monthly loan payments are affordable. It helps borrowers understand their total debt service requirement when managing multiple student loans.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the number of loans, then provide the principal amount and annual interest rate for each loan. Specify the loan term in months. All values must be positive numbers.
