1. What is EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed payment amount a borrower pays to a lender each month until the loan is paid off. It includes both principal and interest components.

2. How EMI Calculation Works

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

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

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment that would pay off the loan over the specified period with the given interest rate.
