Understanding Your Monthly Payment

Whether you call it an EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) or a Mortgage Payment, the math is essentially the same. Every payment you make to the bank is split into two distinct parts:

1. Principal

The money that actually reduces your loan balance. This portion is small at the beginning but grows larger over time.

2. Interest

The profit the bank makes for lending you money. This portion is huge at the start of your loan tenure.

The EMI Formula

E = P × r × (1+r)n / [(1+r)n-1]
  • E = EMI (Monthly Payment)
  • P = Principal Loan Amount
  • r = Monthly Interest Rate (Annual Rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
  • n = Loan Tenure in Months

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the monthly loan payment (EMI) calculated?
We use the standard amortization formula used by banks globally: E = P x r x (1+r)^n / [(1+r)^n-1]. This ensures 100% accuracy for mortgages, car loans, and personal loans.
Can I use this for a Mortgage / Home Loan?
Yes. This calculator is perfect for Mortgages. Simply enter your loan principal, the annual interest rate, and your loan duration (tenure) to see your monthly obligation.
Does the EMI change if interest rates change?
For 'Fixed Rate' loans, your EMI remains constant. For 'Floating/Variable Rate' loans (common in housing), your payment may increase or decrease if the central bank adjusts the repo rate.
How can I reduce my total interest cost?
You can save money by: 1) Choosing a shorter loan tenure (increases EMI but lowers interest), 2) Making a larger down payment, or 3) Making periodic pre-payments towards the principal.
