EMI Calculator

  • Browser-based
  • No signup

Enter loan amount, annual interest rate, and tenure in years or months to calculate monthly EMI, total interest, and total amount payable, with a principal versus interest breakdown.

EMI (equated monthly installment) is the standard reducing-balance payment used for home loans, personal loans, and many retail finance products in India and elsewhere. Banks may quote processing fees, insurance riders, or stepped rates that this simple EMI formula does not include.

When you prepay principal, the bank may keep EMI constant and shorten tenure or reduce EMI while keeping tenure—policies differ. Recalculate after a large prepayment rather than assuming the original EMI schedule still applies.

How to use this tool

1. Enter loan principal, annual interest rate, and tenure in months. 2. Click Calculate EMI. 3. Review monthly installment, total interest, and total payment. 4. Adjust tenure or rate to compare scenarios.

Worked example

Example: ₹10,00,000 at 9% for 20 years (240 months) often lands near ₹9,000/month EMI before fees—your lender’s schedule may differ.

When to use this

  • Checking home or personal loan EMI before applying in India or abroad.
  • Comparing tenure options when the bank offers 15 vs 20 years.
  • Validating a lender's quoted installment against your own math.
  • Planning monthly cash flow for a large appliance or education loan.

Common examples

  • ₹10,00,000 personal loan at 11% for 5 years (60 months) → EMI near ₹21,742; total repayment near ₹13.05 lakh before processing fees.
  • ₹25,00,000 home loan at 8.5% for 20 years (240 months) → EMI near ₹21,696; total interest often exceeds the original principal over the full term.
  • ₹5,00,000 two-wheeler loan at 10.5% for 3 years → EMI near ₹16,251—useful for comparing dealer finance vs bank offer.
  • ₹8,00,000 car loan at 9.5% for 7 years → EMI near ₹13,200; total interest often rivals a shorter 5-year term.
  • $25,000 personal loan at 14% for 48 months → EMI near $685 in USD-style amortization.
