How it's calculated

The Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) is:

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)n / ((1 + r)n − 1)

where P is the loan principal, r is the monthly interest rate (annual ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n is the tenure in months. The maths is identical for home, personal and car loans — only typical rates and tenures differ, which the loan-type toggle sets for you. Total interest = EMI × n − principal.

EMI tips

  • A shorter tenure costs more each month but far less in total interest.
  • Even a small prepayment early in the loan can save a surprising amount of interest.
  • Compare the annual rate and processing fees across lenders, not just the EMI.

Frequently asked questions

How is EMI calculated?

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n − 1), where P is the loan principal, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n is the tenure in months. Each EMI covers both interest and a part of the principal.

Is the EMI formula different for home, personal and car loans?

No — the maths is identical. What differs is the typical interest rate and tenure. The loan-type toggle simply sets sensible starting values for each; you can adjust them to match your actual offer.

How does tenure affect my EMI and total interest?

A longer tenure lowers the monthly EMI but increases the total interest you pay, because you owe the balance for longer. A shorter tenure raises the EMI but reduces total interest.

What is total interest?

Total interest is the sum of all interest across the loan: EMI × number of months − principal. It shows the true cost of borrowing on top of the amount you receive.
