What is an EMI and how is it calculated?
EMI (Equated Monthly Instalment) is the fixed amount paid each month to repay a loan. It is calculated using the loan amount, interest rate, and repayment tenure. EMI includes both principal repayment and interest charged by the lender.
-
Does EMI change during the loan tenure?
For fixed interest rate loans, EMI usually remains the same throughout the tenure. For variable or floating interest rate loans, EMI may change if interest rates are revised by the lender.
-
How does loan tenure affect EMI?
A longer loan tenure generally results in a lower monthly EMI but increases the total interest paid over time. A shorter tenure increases EMI but reduces the overall interest cost.
-
Is EMI the same as total loan repayment?
No. EMI is the monthly payment amount. Total loan repayment includes the original loan amount plus the total interest paid over the entire tenure.
