How EMI is calculated
EMI stands for Equated Monthly Instalment. It is the regular monthly payment made toward a loan under a standard amortizing loan calculation.
The EMI depends on the loan principal, annual interest rate, and number of monthly payments.
In this formula, P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate, and n is the total number of monthly payments.

EMI examples
The calculator estimates the monthly EMI, total interest, and total amount repaid over the five-year term.
A longer loan term generally results in a lower monthly EMI, but the total interest paid can be higher.
When the interest rate is 0%, the monthly payment is simply the loan amount divided by the number of monthly payments.
What this EMI calculator does not include
This calculator estimates payments using the loan amount, interest rate, and loan term. Actual loan costs can differ because lenders may apply processing fees, insurance, taxes, penalties, variable rates, or other charges.
For a real loan, use the lender's repayment schedule and terms as the final source for the amount payable.
