1. What is EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed payment amount a borrower makes to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. For Axis Bank mortgage loans, EMI consists of both principal and interest components.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (Rs)
• \( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12, in decimal)
• \( N \) — Loan tenure in months

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment that would completely pay off the loan over its tenure, including both principal and interest components.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Calculating EMI helps borrowers understand their monthly financial commitment, compare loan offers, and plan their finances accordingly before taking a mortgage loan from Axis Bank.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in Rs, annual interest rate in percentage, and loan tenure in months. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q3: How can I reduce my EMI burden?

Q4: Are there other charges besides EMI?
A: Yes, Axis Bank may charge processing fees, legal charges, and stamp duty which are not included in EMI calculation.

Q5: Can I change EMI during loan tenure?
A: Generally EMI remains fixed, but you can request restructuring in case of interest rate changes or through special schemes.
