1. What is EMI Calculation?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed payment amount a borrower pays to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. For IndusInd Bank home loans, this includes both principal and interest components.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (INR)
• \( R \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12 / 100)
• \( N \) — Loan tenure in months
• \( EMI \) — Equated monthly installment (INR)

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

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Accurate EMI calculation helps borrowers understand their monthly financial commitment, plan their budget effectively, and compare different loan options.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter principal amount in INR, annual interest rate (like 8.50 for 8.5%), and loan tenure in months. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: Yes, for fixed-rate loans. For floating-rate loans, EMI may change if interest rates change.

Q5: Can I change my EMI amount later?
