The principal — the amount you borrow.
The annual rate your lender quotes, as a percentage.
The repayment period in months or years. The EMI, totals, schedule and chart update instantly.
EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1)
When r = 0, the loan is repaid in equal instalments of P ÷ n with no interest.
With r = 8.5 ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.0070833 and n = 240, (1 + r)^n ≈ 5.44. EMI = 2500000 × 0.0070833 × 5.44 ÷ 4.44 ≈ ₹21,696. Over 240 months that is about ₹52.07 lakh, of which ₹27.07 lakh is interest.
Interest each month is charged on the outstanding balance. At the start the balance is highest, so most of your fixed EMI goes to interest and only a little reduces the principal. As the balance falls, the interest portion shrinks and the principal portion grows.
The amortization schedule shows this crossover point — the month where you finally start paying off more principal than interest.
Because early instalments are mostly interest, a prepayment made early in the loan removes far more future interest than the same amount paid later — every rupee of principal cleared sooner stops accruing interest for every remaining month of the loan.
To see exactly how much a specific lump sum or extra monthly payment would save on your own loan, use our Home Loan Prepayment Calculator, which runs the full month-by-month comparison rather than a rough estimate.
Yes, but it increases the total interest you pay because the balance reduces more slowly. The calculator shows both figures so you can weigh the trade-off.
For a fixed-rate loan, yes. For a floating-rate loan the EMI (or the tenure) changes whenever your lender revises the rate. Re-run the calculator with the new rate to see the effect.
No. It calculates the pure loan EMI. Add any one-time fees separately.
The calculator handles it — the EMI becomes simply the loan amount divided by the number of months.
A common rule of thumb is keeping total EMIs (across all loans) under 40-50% of your monthly take-home pay, though your own comfortable limit depends on your other expenses and savings goals.
Not proportionally — halving the tenure roughly doubles the principal repaid each month, but since less interest accrues overall, the EMI increase is usually somewhat less than double.
