How It Works & Underlying Concept

An Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) is a fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender on a specified calendar date each month. Each payment pays down both the accrued monthly interest and a portion of the original loan principal.

Mathematical Formula / RuleEMI = [P × r × (1 + r)^n] / [(1 + r)^n - 1] where P = Principal, r = Monthly Interest Rate, n = Number of Months
Quick Instructions

Real-World Example

Automobile Financing

Borrowing $25,000 for a new car at a 6.5% annual interest rate over a 5-year loan term.

Step 1:Principal: $25,000; Annual Rate: 6.5%; Tenure: 5 years (60 months).
Step 2:Monthly interest rate: 6.5 / 12 / 100 = 0.005417.
Step 3:The standard reducing balance formula generates an EMI of $489.15.
Step 4:Total amount paid over 5 years is $29,349.00 ($4,349 in interest).
Result: Monthly EMI is $489.15. Total interest paid is $4,349.00.
Technical Notes & Limits
  • Does not factor in loan processing fees, origination charges, or optional credit insurance.
  • Calculates on a fixed-rate basis (variable rate loans fluctuate with benchmark rates).
