Frequently asked questions

How is personal loan EMI calculated?

EMI is calculated using the formula EMI = P × r × (1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is the tenure in months. This calculator applies that formula automatically as you adjust the sliders above.

What is the difference between flat rate and reducing balance interest?

With reducing balance interest, you're charged interest only on the amount you still owe, so the interest portion of each EMI shrinks over time while the principal portion grows. Most Indian personal loans use reducing balance interest, which is what this calculator assumes.

Does a longer tenure reduce my EMI?

Yes — spreading the same loan amount over more months lowers each monthly payment. The trade-off is that a longer tenure increases the total interest you pay across the life of the loan, which you can see reflected in the amortization details above.

Can I prepay or foreclose a personal loan?

Most lenders allow part-prepayment or full foreclosure, often after an initial lock-in period, and may charge a prepayment fee on the outstanding balance. Always confirm the exact terms with your lender before planning a prepayment.
