Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is an EMI?
EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment. It is a fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. EMIs are used to pay off both interest and principal each month so that over a specified number of years, the loan is paid off in full.
How is EMI calculated?
The mathematical formula to calculate EMI is: EMI = [P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1], where P stands for the loan amount or principal, R is the interest rate per month, and N is the number of monthly installments.
Does the EMI amount change during the loan tenure?
If you opt for a fixed interest rate, your EMI remains the same throughout the loan tenure. However, if you choose a floating interest rate (usually common in Home Loans), your EMI or loan tenure may fluctuate depending on the RBI's repo rate and market interest rates.
