Unit converters guide for loan emi calculator users.
EMI (Equated Monthly Instalment) is the fixed monthly payment on a loan. It is calculated from the principal, the annual interest rate, and the loan term. This tool computes the EMI and shows the full amortisation schedule — every monthly payment broken into principal and interest components.
All calculation runs in your browser using the standard EMI formula: EMI = P × r × (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1), where P is principal, r is monthly rate, and n is number of months.
How to use it
Enter the loan amount, annual interest rate (%), and tenure in months or years. The EMI and totals are shown instantly.
Amortisation schedule
Each month's payment is split into interest (higher early on) and principal (higher later). This is called an amortising loan.
Quick checklist
- Enter the annual interest rate, not the monthly rate.
- Processing fees are not included — add them to the principal for an accurate total cost.
- Compare by total interest paid, not just monthly EMI.
- Prepayment reduces total interest significantly — use the prepayment field if available.
Answers
Loan EMI Calculator FAQs
What is EMI?
Equated Monthly Instalment — the fixed monthly payment that repays both principal and interest over the loan term.
Why does early repayment mostly cover interest?
Interest is charged on the outstanding balance, which is highest at the start. As the principal reduces, each payment covers more principal and less interest.
Does this include processing fees?
No. Add one-time fees to the principal amount to get a true cost-of-borrowing figure.
What is the EMI formula?
EMI = P × r × (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1). P = principal, r = monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), n = number of monthly instalments.
