How this is calculated

The formula

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)n ÷ ((1 + r)n − 1)
  • P = loan amount, r = monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), n = number of months.
  • Interest is charged each month on the balance still owed.
Standard reducing-balance method. Checked 26 September 2026.

Assumptions

  • The rate stays the same for the whole tenure.
  • Processing fees and insurance are not included.
  • The prepayment example pays a lump sum at the start of year 3 (after 24 EMIs) and keeps the EMI the same, so the loan ends sooner.
  • Any prepayment or foreclosure charge in your loan agreement is not included.
Why is my bank’s EMI slightly different?

Banks round the EMI to the rupee and settle the difference in the last instalment, and some add fees to the loan. The gap is usually a few rupees.

Is a longer tenure better?

It lowers the EMI but you pay more interest overall. The “Other tenures” tab above shows the trade-off for your loan.

Does prepaying really help?

Yes. An early prepayment cuts the balance that interest is charged on, so it saves the most when made in the first years of the loan. Check your loan agreement for any prepayment or foreclosure charge before you prepay.

What changed

This calculator uses the standard EMI formula, the one lenders use for a reducing-balance loan. No government rate or limit goes into it, so no rule change affects it. Its method was last checked on 26 September 2026.
