Formula and calculation method

Monthly rate r = annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100; n = years × 12. EMI = P × r × (1+r)^n ÷ ((1+r)^n − 1). At 0% interest, EMI = P ÷ n.

Worked example

For a ₹5,00,000 loan at 10% annually over 5 years, the calculator applies a monthly rate of 10% ÷ 12 and 60 instalments.

Important information

The result is an estimate, not a loan offer or approval. Lenders may apply processing fees, insurance, variable rates and different day-count conventions.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is this calculator?

It provides an estimate based on the values and assumptions entered. Verify important decisions with the relevant provider or a qualified professional.

Does this replace professional advice?

No. It is an informational tool and does not replace tax, legal, accounting, lending, investment or medical advice.

How to compare two loan offers

Keep the principal and tenure the same when comparing lenders, then change the annual interest rate. Review the monthly EMI alongside total repayment and total interest: a lower EMI can simply result from a longer tenure and may increase the overall borrowing cost.

Costs that may sit outside the EMI

Processing fees, documentation charges, insurance, floating-rate changes, late fees and prepayment conditions may not be included in this estimate. Ask the lender for the Key Facts Statement and amortisation schedule, and compare the annual percentage rate and total payable amount before accepting a loan.
