1. What is EMI Calculation?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed payment amount a borrower pays to a lender each month for a loan. The EMI consists of both principal and interest components.

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)
• \( n \) — Loan term in months
• \( PMT \) — Monthly EMI payment (INR)

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment that would pay off the loan with interest over the specified term.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

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

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the principal amount in INR, annual interest rate in percentage, and loan term in years. All values must be positive numbers.
