EMI Calculator
Calculate your monthly loan EMI, total interest payable, and total payment instantly.
What is an EMI?
Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) is a fixed payment made by a borrower to a lender on a specified date each month. It is used to pay off both the principal and the interest on a loan over a set number of years until it is fully paid off.
How Does the EMI Formula Work?
Our calculator uses the standard mathematical formula for calculating EMIs:
EMI = [P × R × (1+R)^N] / [(1+R)^N - 1]
- P = Principal loan amount
- R = Rate of interest calculated per month (Annual Rate / 12 / 100)
- N = Number of monthly installments (Tenure in Years × 12)
Benefits & About the Data
Using an EMI calculator before taking a loan helps you understand your monthly cash outflows, allowing you to budget better. It also shows you the total interest you will pay over the lifetime of the loan. The calculations provided assume a fixed interest rate throughout the loan tenure. In reality, floating rate loans may fluctuate based on the lender's benchmark rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about this tool? Find quick answers here.
- EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment. It is a fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. EMIs are used to pay off both interest and principal each month so that over a specified number of years, the loan is fully paid off.
- The mathematical formula for calculating EMIs is: EMI = [P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1], where P stands for the loan amount or principal, R is the interest rate per month, and N is the number of monthly installments.
- If you opt for a fixed-rate loan, your EMI remains constant throughout the tenure. If you have a floating or variable interest rate loan, the EMI or the loan tenure may change whenever the lender revises their benchmark interest rates.
- Yes, making a part-prepayment towards your loan principal can reduce your outstanding balance. After prepayment, you can either ask the bank to reduce your EMI amount while keeping the tenure the same, or reduce the tenure while keeping the EMI constant.
