What is EMI (Equated Monthly Installment)?
EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is a fixed amount paid by borrowers to lenders at a specified date each month. EMIs consist of both principal and interest components, calculated to ensure the loan is fully repaid over the agreed tenure.
The EMI amount remains constant throughout the loan tenure, but the proportion of principal and interest changes. Initially, the interest component is higher, and gradually, the principal component increases as you pay down the loan.
💡 Key Benefits of EMI Structure
- • Predictable monthly payments for better budgeting
- • Enables purchase of assets beyond immediate paying capacity
- • Tax benefits available on home loan EMIs
- • Builds credit history when paid regularly
How EMI is Calculated
EMI Formula
EMI =
((1 + r)ⁿ - 1)
P = Principal loan amount
r = Monthly interest rate (Annual rate ÷ 12)
n = Number of monthly installments
Example Calculation
Loan Amount (P): ₹25,00,000
Annual Interest Rate: 8.5%
Monthly Rate (r): 8.5% ÷ 12 = 0.708%
Tenure: 20 years (240 months)
EMI = ₹21,738
Total Interest: ₹27,17,120
