Formula used
EMI = P x r x (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n - 1). P is the loan amount, r is monthly interest rate and n is total monthly instalments. For 20 years, n is 240.
What is not included
The EMI estimate does not include processing fee, legal charges, valuation charges, insurance premium, delayed payment charges, stamp duty or registration cost. Banks may also round instalments differently.
Floating-rate caution
Most Indian home loans use floating rates. When rates change, the bank may increase EMI, extend tenure or apply a mix. Recalculate after every major rate reset and ask the lender for an updated amortisation schedule.
Prepayment impact
Prepaying principal early can reduce lifetime interest meaningfully. Before prepaying, keep emergency cash and check whether your loan type has any prepayment restriction or documentation requirement.
Affordability check
Do not judge affordability only by EMI. Add maintenance, property tax, insurance, society charges, furnishing, travel cost and emergency reserves before finalising a home purchase.
