Formula Used
The EMI is calculated using the standard loan formula:
EMI Formula
EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / [(1 + r)^n - 1]
Where:
- P = Principal loan amount (₹1,500,000)
- r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
- n = Number of monthly payments (loan term in years × 12)
This formula accounts for the interest on both the principal and the accumulated interest over the life of the loan.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the EMI for a ₹1,500,000 loan at 8.5% annual interest over 5 years:
- Convert annual rate to monthly: 8.5% ÷ 12 = 0.7083% or 0.007083 in decimal
- Calculate number of payments: 5 years × 12 = 60 months
- Plug values into formula:
EMI = 1,500,000 × 0.007083 × (1 + 0.007083)^60 / [(1 + 0.007083)^60 - 1]
= ₹28,670.40 per month
After 5 years, you would have paid a total of ₹172,022.40 in interest.
| Loan Amount | Interest Rate | Term | Monthly EMI | Total Interest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ₹1,500,000 | 8.5% | 5 years | ₹28,670.40 | ₹172,022.40 |
Interpreting Results
The calculator provides several key metrics:
- Monthly EMI: Your fixed monthly payment amount
- Total Amount Paid: The sum of all EMIs over the loan term
- Total Interest Paid: The difference between total amount paid and principal
Changing the interest rate or loan term will significantly impact your monthly payments. A higher interest rate or longer term will increase your EMI and total interest paid.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is EMI?
- EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment. It's the fixed amount you pay each month to repay a loan, including both principal and interest.
- How is EMI calculated?
- The EMI is calculated using the loan amount, interest rate, and loan term. The formula accounts for the interest on both the principal and the accumulated interest over the loan period.
- Can I change the loan term?
- Yes, you can adjust the loan term in the calculator to see how it affects your monthly payments and total interest paid. A longer term will generally result in lower monthly payments but higher total interest.
- What if I want to pay extra each month?
- Paying extra each month will reduce the principal faster and lower your total interest paid. The calculator doesn't account for extra payments, but you can use it to estimate the impact.
- Is the interest rate fixed or variable?
- The calculator assumes a fixed interest rate. If your loan has a variable rate, the actual EMI may differ from the calculation shown here.
