Personal Loan EMI Calculator

Calculate your monthly EMI for a personal or consumer loan. Adjust amount, rate, and tenure to find repayment terms that fit your budget.

Personal loans are typically unsecured and carry higher interest rates than secured loans. Even a 1–2% rate difference between lenders adds up significantly over a 3–5 year term. Use the Compare tab to put multiple offers side by side before committing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is personal loan EMI calculated?

Personal loan EMI uses the reducing-balance formula: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n − 1), where P is the principal, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is the tenure in months. For example, a 500,000 loan at 15% p.a. for 5 years gives an EMI of approximately 11,895.

How do I compare two personal loan offers?

Switch to the Compare tab and enter each lender's rate and tenure. The side-by-side view shows EMI, total interest, and total repayment for each scenario. The lender with the lowest total interest is the cheapest, even if the EMI looks similar.

When is the best time to make a personal loan prepayment?

Prepayments made in the first half of the loan tenure save the most interest, because outstanding principal is highest early on. Use the Prepayment Simulator in the Calculator tab to model exactly how much you save and how many months you cut off.

What EMI-to-income ratio is considered safe for a personal loan?

Most financial advisors recommend keeping total loan EMIs below 40–50% of your gross monthly income. The Affordability tab lets you set your preferred ratio and instantly shows the maximum loan amount you can safely take at any given rate and tenure.
