| From: | To: |
This calculator helps determine your remaining personal loan balance in India based on your monthly payments, interest rate, and remaining tenure. It uses standard Indian lending rates (e.g., ICICI at 10.85% p.a.) for accurate calculations.
The calculator uses the loan balance equation:
Where:
Explanation: The equation accounts for the present value of all future payments at the current interest rate.
Details: Knowing your remaining balance helps with financial planning, loan restructuring decisions, and prepayment considerations. It's particularly important in India where personal loan rates vary significantly between lenders.
Tips: Enter your exact monthly EMI amount, current interest rate (default is ICICI's 10.85% p.a.), and remaining loan tenure in months. The calculator works best for fixed-rate personal loans common in India.
Q1: Why is ICICI's rate of 10.85% used as default?
A: ICICI Bank is one of India's leading personal loan providers with competitive rates, making it a good benchmark for calculations.
Q2: How accurate is this calculator for floating rate loans?
A: It provides an estimate based on current rates. For floating rates, you'll need to recalculate when rates change.
Q3: Does this include processing fees or insurance?
A: No, it calculates principal + interest only. Additional charges should be considered separately.
Q4: Can I use this for home loans or car loans?
A: The formula works similarly, but Indian home loans often have different structures. Use a dedicated calculator for those.
Q5: How can I reduce my remaining balance faster?
A: Making partial prepayments (allowed by most Indian lenders) can significantly reduce your total interest burden.
