How to Use EMI Calculator
- Enter the loan amount (principal).
- Enter the annual interest rate (%).
- Enter the loan tenure and select months or years.
- Click "Calculate EMI" to see your monthly payment.
- View total interest, total amount payable, and the full amortisation schedule.
How it Works
The EMI Calculator uses the standard reducing-balance (diminishing balance) formula. Each month, interest is calculated on the remaining loan balance. The EMI stays constant, but the proportion going toward principal increases over time while the interest portion decreases. The amortisation table shows the complete month-by-month breakdown.
Examples
Input: Loan: ₹10,00,000, Rate: 8.5%, Tenure: 20 years
Result: EMI ≈ ₹8,678 | Total Interest ≈ ₹10,82,817
Input: Loan: ₹5,00,000, Rate: 10%, Tenure: 5 years
Result: EMI ≈ ₹10,624 | Total Interest ≈ ₹1,37,450
Input: Loan: ₹3,00,000, Rate: 0%, Tenure: 12 months
Result: EMI = ₹25,000 | Total Interest = ₹0
Frequently Asked Questions
What does EMI stand for?
EMI stands for Equated Monthly Instalment. It is the fixed monthly payment a borrower makes to a lender until the loan is fully repaid.
How is EMI calculated?
EMI is calculated using the reducing-balance formula: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)ⁿ / ((1 + r)ⁿ − 1), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate, and n is the number of months.
What happens if the interest rate is 0%?
For a zero-interest loan, the EMI is simply the loan amount divided by the number of months (P ÷ n). No interest is charged.
Does a longer tenure reduce EMI?
Yes, a longer tenure reduces the monthly EMI but increases the total interest paid over the life of the loan.
