OVERVIEW

Why plan the EMI before the loan?

An EMI — equated monthly instalment — is the fixed amount you repay each month, blending principal and interest so the loan retires exactly at tenure's end. Early instalments are interest-heavy; later ones repay mostly principal.

Working the number out first tells you what tenure your salary can absorb comfortably — most advisors suggest keeping all EMIs within 40–50% of monthly income. It also gives you a benchmark: when a lender's quote arrives, you'll know exactly what each 0.5% of interest costs you.

FORMULA

The arithmetic, in the open.

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)n ÷ ((1 + r)n − 1)

P = principal · r = monthly rate (annual ÷ 12 ÷ 100) · n = tenure in months

WORKED EXAMPLE

Borrow ₹3,00,000 at 12% p.a. for 24 months. Monthly rate r = 0.01, and (1.01)24 ≈ 1.2697. EMI = 3,00,000 × 0.01 × 1.2697 ÷ 0.2697 ≈ ₹14,123 a month — about ₹38,950 of total interest over the two years.

FACTORS

What moves your EMI.

Principal

EMI scales linearly — borrow 20% less and the EMI drops 20%. Borrow only what the purpose truly needs.

Interest rate

Set by the lender on your credit profile. On ₹3L over 24 months, each 1% p.a. is roughly ₹140 a month.

Tenure

Longer tenure shrinks the EMI but grows total interest. Stretch only as far as comfort demands.

Credit profile

A 750+ score, stable income and low existing EMIs earn you the lower end of every lender's rate band.
