EMI calculator FAQ
The standard reducing-balance formula is used: EMI = P × r × (1+r)ⁿ / ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P is the amount, r the monthly rate and n the tenure in months. Interest is charged only on the outstanding balance, so each EMI shifts gradually from interest to principal.
At an illustrative 16% p.a. reducing rate, the EMI is about ₹454. With a 2% processing fee (₹100) plus ₹18 GST, the total repayable comes to roughly ₹5,562. Your lender's exact figures will differ with the offered rate.
One-time fees are annualised over just a few months, which inflates the percentage even when the rupee cost is modest. On short tenures, compare offers on the total repayable in rupees rather than the APR alone.
A longer tenure lowers the EMI but increases total interest, because interest accrues for longer. Use the calculator to find the shortest tenure whose EMI fits comfortably in your monthly budget.
