1. What is the SBI Home Loan Repayment Formula?

The SBI Home Loan Repayment formula calculates the fixed monthly payment (EMI) required to repay a home loan over a specified term. It's based on the principal amount, interest rate, and loan duration.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the PMT formula:

\[ PMT = P \times \frac{r \times (1 + r)^n}{(1 + r)^n - 1} \]

Where:

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

Explanation: The formula accounts for compound interest over the loan term, calculating a fixed payment that pays off both principal and interest over time.

3. Importance of Loan Repayment Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation helps borrowers understand their financial commitment, plan their budget, and compare different loan options.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in INR, annual interest rate (current SBI rates start at 8.40% p.a.), and loan term in years. All values must be positive numbers.
