Your EMI isn't the whole cost

This calculator shows the EMI on the loan amount. It doesn't include the processing fee or the GST on it, which you pay upfront. To see the actual interest rate once those are counted, use the personal loan actual interest rate calculator. Planning to pay early? See how much a part payment saves, or what it takes to close the loan fully.

How this works

The standard reducing-balance EMI formula we use, how the repayment schedule is built, and how rounding is handled so principal adds up exactly. Read the full methodology, formulas and sources.

Frequently asked questions

How is EMI calculated?

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n is the number of months.

Why does most of my early EMI go towards interest?

Interest is charged on the outstanding balance, which is highest at the start. As you repay principal, the interest part of each EMI falls and the principal part rises. The schedule below shows this month by month.

Does the EMI include processing fees?

No. Fees are usually paid upfront or deducted from the loan amount. Use the actual interest rate checker to see how the processing fee and GST change the real cost of the loan.

What is the EMI on a ₹10 lakh loan?

It depends on the rate and tenure. At 10% p.a. for 5 years, the EMI is about ₹21,247 and total interest about ₹2,74,823. At 12% for 3 years it is about ₹33,214. At 8.5% for 20 years, typical of a home loan, it is about ₹8,678, but total interest rises to about ₹10,82,776. Enter your own rate and tenure above to see the exact figure.

Is this a reducing balance or flat rate EMI calculator?

Reducing balance. Interest is charged each month only on the amount you still owe, which is how most bank home, car and personal loans work. A flat rate charges interest on the original amount for the whole tenure, so it costs more. Example: ₹1 lakh for 1 year at 12% costs about ₹6,619 in interest on reducing balance (EMI ₹8,885), but ₹12,000 at a 12% flat rate (EMI ₹9,333). If an offer quotes a flat rate, compare the EMIs, not the rates.

Does this work for car, bike and business loans?

Yes. The EMI formula is the same for any loan repaid in equal monthly instalments on a reducing balance: home, car, bike, personal, education or business. Enter the loan amount, interest rate and tenure from your offer.

Can I calculate EMI with prepayment?

This calculator shows the EMI and schedule without prepayments. To see how a part payment changes your EMI or tenure and how much interest it saves, use the loan prepayment calculator linked below.

Can I download the EMI schedule to Excel?

Yes. Use “Download schedule (Excel / CSV)” under the result. The file opens in Excel or Google Sheets with every month's EMI, principal, interest and balance. It is created on your device; nothing is sent to us.
