How can EMI Calculator help you?

Three major factors influence the final EMI amount that a borrower pays to the lender. The interest rate, the loan tenure, and the principal amount, in combination, give a simple EMI formula for EMI calculation. The formula is as follows:

E=[P×R×(1+R) n] ÷ [(1+R) n-1]

In the above formula, E represents EMI, P is the principal loan amount, R is the monthly interest rate (calculated as R%/12), and n represents the loan tenure. To better understand the use of EMI calculation, assume a borrower receives a property loan of Rs.1 crore that must be repaid over the next 20 years at an interest rate of 8%.

So here, R= 8%/12 = 0.00666667

EMI= [10000000*0.00666667*(1+0.00666667)240 / [(1+0.00666667)240 -1] = 83644

In this case, the monthly EMI payment for the borrower would be Rs.83,644. Therefore, the total amount payable in interest would be Rs.1,00,74,544, and the total amount due would be Rs.2,00,74,560.

The EMI calculation is more complicated if you wish to do it manually when you want to know the bifurcations of the EMI to the components of interest and principal. Besides the benefit of ease, the other points that make equated monthly instalment calculators useful are-

  • It assists you in obtaining an accurate estimate of your EMI amount so that you can budget your monthly finances accordingly.

Factors influencing your EMI amount

Today any credit you avail whether it is by applying for a Loan or by swiping your Credit Card can be easily repaid in Equated Monthly Installments (EMI). A number of factors influence the EMI payable; the most important ones are listed down below:

Loan amount

The total loan amount is a significant factor that determines every EMI you pay. Given this, a higher loan amount can translate into a higher EMI payable. Consider your financial requirement and affordability to determine a suitable loan amount.

Interest rate

Interest rate is the amount charged by the bank for offering you the loan amount. You repay a part of the interest with every EMI. Hence, the interest rate charged impacts your EMI payable significantly. Typically, the EMI’s interest component is higher in the initial period of the tenure. It reduces as you start repaying the principal loan amount.

The interest rate offering differs for each bank. It is also dependent on your financial profile. Explore the market to find the best interest rate offerings and keep up with a solid financial profile.

Repayment tenure

The repayment tenure or the term of the loan also influences your EMI amount. Choose a repayment tenure considering your risk appetite and convenience. Make timely payments to ensure you are able to repay the taken loan amount without feeling burdened and costing your credit score.

FAQ

The 'Equated Monthly Installment,' or EMI, is the amount you need to pay to the bank or financial institution on a pre-set date each month until the loan amount, including interest, is fully repaid. The principal and interest components of the EMI are designed so that the interest component is considerably more significant than the principal component in the early part of your loan. In comparison, the main element is more critical in the latter part of the loan tenure.

There are two methods for calculating an EMI, namely-

  • Flat-rate method:

In this case, even though the loan balance is gradually being paid down, each interest charge is calculated using the original loan amount in the flat-rate method. The EMI is calculated by adding the total loan principal and total interest on the principal, dividing the sum by the number of EMI payments, the number of months in the loan term.

  • Reducing-balance method:

The interest payment is calculated using the reducing balance method, which is based on the outstanding principal. It means that each EMI's interest and principal repayment portions change over time. Interest payments make up a larger portion of the EMI at the beginning of the loan term, as a percentage of the loan outstanding. The interest amount decreases as the loan is gradually repaid over time.

The online EMI calculator can be used to calculate EMIs for various loans, including personal loans, business loans, and car loans. All you need to know is the applicable interest rate on loan and the tenure of the loan.

An Equated Monthly Instalment contains a portion of the principal and interest due on your loan. It must be paid until the end of the term.

If you skip your EMI, your credit score will be negatively impacted, and The lender bank or financial institution may levy late fees and penalties.

The EMI can change during repayment tenure if you make a lump sum part payment towards the loan. This payment may either reduce the repayment tenure or the EMI amount.

No cost EMI means you don't have to pay any additional interest on the loan taken. As a result, you only have to pay the product's actual price through EMIs

Missed EMIs are divided into two groups-

a)       Major default:

These, as the name implies, are subject to the harshest penalties. If you have not made any payments in the last 90 days or more, it is considered a major default. It will appear on your credit report and may have an impact on future loans.

b)      Minor default:

If the last payment was made within 90 days or less, the missed EMI is considered a minor default. Borrowers who have minor defaults on their loan accounts can avoid the negative consequences if they act quickly enough.
