Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about using this free online loan calculator.

How is the monthly Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) calculated? ▾
EMI is calculated using the reducing balance annuity formula: `EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / [ (1 + r)^n − 1 ]`, where P is principal, r is monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is total months.
Why does early loan payment consist mostly of interest? ▾
In standard amortization, interest is calculated each month on the remaining unpaid principal balance. Because principal is largest at the beginning, early monthly installments consist predominantly of interest charges.
How much interest can I save by making prepayments? ▾
Any extra payment made directly against the principal balance reduces future interest compounding for all remaining months, significantly shortening your loan tenure and saving thousands in total interest.
Does this calculator work for auto loans and personal loans? ▾
Yes. It works for personal loans, auto/car financing, student loans, and fixed-rate installment credit.
