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: 8.5% ÷ 12 = 0.7083% (r = 0.007083).
- 3
Months: 20 × 12 = 240.
- 4
Growth factor: (1 + r)^n = (1 + 0.007083)^240 = 5.4412.
- 5
EMI = ₹30,00,000 × 0.007083 × 5.4412 ÷ 4.4412 = ₹26,035.
What banks look at
In the first year, ₹2.53 lakh of your EMIs goes to interest and ₹59,707 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 ₹26,035 usually needs a take-home salary of at least ₹52,069 if you have no other loans.
