Frequently asked questions

How is EMI calculated?

EMI = P × r × (1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P is principal, r the monthly rate (annual ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n the number of months — the reducing-balance method.

Will it match my bank exactly?

Often yes, but processing fees, insurance, flat-rate methods or instalment-date rules can change the bank's final figure slightly. Ask for a written schedule before deciding.

What if the rate is zero?

The loan is simply divided equally across the months.

What happens if I extend the tenure?

The monthly EMI falls but total interest rises. Compare both before choosing.
