1. What is the LIC Housing Finance EMI Calculation?

The LIC Housing Finance EMI calculation determines your monthly payment (EMI) for a home loan based on the principal amount, interest rate, and loan term. Current rates start at 8.50% p.a.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (INR)
• \( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12 and converted to decimal)
• \( n \) — Number of monthly payments (loan term in years × 12)
• \( PMT \) — Monthly EMI payment (INR)

Explanation: The formula accounts for compound interest over the loan term to calculate equal monthly installments.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Calculating EMI helps borrowers understand their repayment obligations, plan finances, and compare different loan options before committing.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in INR, annual interest rate (current LIC rates start at 8.50%), and loan term in years. All values must be positive numbers.
