Home Loan EMI Formula
The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:
Where:
P = Loan amount (Principal)
r = Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
n = Total number of monthly installments
Example Calculation
Example:
If you take a home loan of ₹50,00,000 at an annual interest rate of 8% for 20 years (240 months):
Total interest = ₹41,983 × 240 − ₹50,00,000 = ₹50,75,920
Total amount payable = ₹1,00,75,920
Understanding Home Loan EMIs
Each EMI includes:
Principal Repayment: Reduces the outstanding loan amount.
Interest Payment: Charges for borrowing the loan amount.
At the start of the loan tenure, a higher portion of EMI goes toward interest. Over time, the principal portion increases — a process called amortization.
Home Loan Repayment Tips
- Compare offers from different banks to find the lowest interest rate.
- Opt for a shorter tenure if possible — it saves on interest.
- Make part-prepayments when you have surplus funds to reduce your loan term and interest.
- Check for hidden charges such as processing fees, prepayment penalties, and late fees.
- Maintain a good credit score to get lower interest rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is a home loan EMI?
EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment. It’s the fixed monthly amount you pay your lender toward repaying your home loan.
Q2. How is home loan EMI calculated?
It depends on your loan amount, interest rate, and tenure using the standard EMI formula.
Q3. Can I prepay my home loan?
Yes, most lenders allow partial or full prepayment of a home loan. Prepayment reduces the principal and saves interest.
Q4. What is the ideal tenure for a home loan?
Tenures typically range between 10–30 years. A shorter tenure reduces total interest but increases monthly EMI.
Q5. Does missing an EMI affect my credit score?
Yes — missing EMIs negatively impacts your credit score and can affect future loan approvals.
