How the EMI is calculated
- 1
EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1), where P is the loan amount, r the monthly rate and n the number of months.
- 2
Monthly rate: 9.5% ÷ 12 = 0.7917% (r = 0.007917).
- 3
Months: 10 × 12 = 120.
- 4
Growth factor: (1 + r)^n = (1 + 0.007917)^120 = 2.5761.
- 5
EMI = ₹10,00,000 × 0.007917 × 2.5761 ÷ 1.5761 = ₹12,940.
What banks look at
In the first year, ₹92,305 of your EMIs goes to interest and ₹62,972 to the principal. Part-prepayments early in the loan reduce interest the most; RBI rules do not allow banks to charge individual borrowers prepayment penalties on floating-rate loans.
Many lenders keep total EMIs within about 50% of net monthly income, so an EMI of ₹12,940 usually needs a take-home salary of at least ₹25,880 if you have no other loans.
