Formula Used
The EMI for an auto loan is calculated using the following formula:
EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / [(1 + r)^n - 1]
Where:
- P = Principal loan amount (loan amount)
- r = Monthly interest rate (annual interest rate divided by 12)
- n = Number of monthly installments (loan term in years multiplied by 12)
This formula accounts for the interest charged on the outstanding loan balance each month, resulting in a fixed monthly payment that includes both principal and interest.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the EMI for a car loan of ₹5,00,000 at 8.5% annual interest for 5 years.
- Convert annual interest to monthly: 8.5% ÷ 12 = 0.7083% or 0.007083 in decimal.
- Calculate number of months: 5 years × 12 = 60 months.
- Apply the formula:
EMI = ₹5,00,000 × 0.007083 × (1 + 0.007083)^60 / [(1 + 0.007083)^60 - 1]
EMI ≈ ₹11,250.50 per month
Total interest payable: ₹5,00,000 × 0.085 × 5 = ₹206,250
Total repayment amount: ₹5,00,000 + ₹206,250 = ₹5,206,250
