What is EMI? – Equated Monthly Installment

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 fully paid off.

The 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, and N is the number of monthly installments.

EMI Formula Explained with Example

Example: Loan Amount = ₹10,00,000, Annual Interest = 8%, Tenure = 10 years (120 months).

Monthly Rate (R) = 8/12/100 = 0.006667. N = 120.

EMI = [10,00,000 × 0.006667 × (1+0.006667)^120] / [(1+0.006667)^120 - 1] = ₹12,133.

Total Interest = (EMI × N) - Principal = (12,133 × 120) - 10,00,000 = ₹4,56,000.

Total Amount = Principal + Interest = ₹14,56,000.
