How the EMI is calculated

  1. 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. 2

    Monthly rate: 8.5% ÷ 12 = 0.7083% (r = 0.007083).

  3. 3

    Months: 20 × 12 = 240.

  4. 4

    Growth factor: (1 + r)^n = (1 + 0.007083)^240 = 5.4412.

  5. 5

    EMI = ₹50,00,000 × 0.007083 × 5.4412 ÷ 4.4412 = ₹43,391.

What banks look at

In the first year, ₹4.21 lakh of your EMIs goes to interest and ₹99,511 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 ₹43,391 usually needs a take-home salary of at least ₹86,782 if you have no other loans.
