Run your exact EMI →How the EMI is calculated
EMI uses the standard reducing-balance formula: EMI = P × r × (1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P is the loan amount (₹5 lakh), r is the monthly interest rate (annual ÷ 12), and n is the number of months (7 × 12 = 84). Early EMIs are mostly interest; later ones are mostly principal. Figures exclude processing fees, insurance and prepayment. See the full loan & EMI calculator for an amortisation schedule.
