Model your loan EMI before you commit

Plug in how much you would borrow, the annual interest rate, and how long you might take to repay. We use a standard monthly reducing-balance schedule—handy for comparing scenarios, not a substitute for a lender’s actual terms, fees, or floating-rate changes.

What this EMI number means

An equated monthly installment keeps your cash outflow fixed each month. Early in the tenure, a larger slice of each payment covers interest; as the outstanding principal shrinks, more of each installment goes toward principal. This calculator assumes the same nominal annual rate for the full tenure and monthly rests—real loans may include processing charges, insurance, prepayment rules, or rate resets that change what you actually pay.

What moves the installment

  • Principal: A larger loan raises the EMI unless you stretch the tenure or negotiate a lower rate.
  • Rate: Even a small change in annual interest compounds over many years and materially changes total interest.
  • Tenure: Longer loans usually mean smaller EMIs but a higher aggregate interest bill; shorter loans do the opposite.

Reducing-balance formula (reference)

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

  • P = loan principal
  • r = monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
  • n = number of monthly installments

If the annual rate is 0%, EMI simplifies to principal divided by the number of months.
