About Loan / EMI Calculator

Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) spreads loan principal and interest across fixed monthly payments. Knowing EMI helps compare offers for cars, education, or personal loans.

Actual lender schedules include fees, insurance, variable rates, and prepayment rules not captured in basic calculators.

CalculatorCamp EMI results are estimates, not financial advice or loan offers. Currency is display-only.

How to use this tool

Enter loan amount, annual interest rate, and tenure in months or years. Calculate for EMI, total interest, and total payment.

Formula & methodology

This loan emi calculator applies the standard relationship below. Intermediate values are kept at full precision; only the displayed result is rounded.

EMI = P x r x (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1); r = monthly rate, n = months, P = principal

Worked example

A 1,000,000 loan at 12% per year over 5 years: monthly rate r = 0.12 ÷ 12 = 0.01 and n = 60 payments. EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1) = 1,000,000 × 0.01 × 1.8167 ÷ 0.8167 ≈ 22,244.45 per month. Total paid over the term is about 1,334,667, of which roughly 334,667 is interest.

Tips for accurate results

  • Compare APR including fees, not nominal rate alone.
  • Shorter tenure raises EMI but cuts total interest.
  • Prepayment may reduce interest—check lender terms.
  • Enter principal in your loan currency; no FX conversion here.
