Frequently asked

What is the EMI on a ₹5 lakh education loan for 10 years at 11%?

₹6,888 per month. Over 10 years you repay ₹8,26,500 in total, of which ₹3,26,500 is interest.

How much interest will I pay on ₹5 lakh at 11% over 10 years?

₹3,26,500 — roughly 65% of the amount borrowed.

How is EMI calculated in India?

Banks use the reducing-balance method: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n ÷ ((1 + r)^n − 1). P is the principal, r the monthly interest rate and n the number of monthly instalments. Early EMIs are mostly interest; later ones mostly principal.

Does a longer tenure reduce my EMI?

Yes, but total interest rises sharply. Doubling a home-loan tenure from 10 to 20 years typically cuts the EMI by around 30% while roughly doubling the interest paid.

Is prepayment worth it?

On floating-rate home loans RBI rules prohibit prepayment penalties for individuals, so a lump-sum prepayment early in the tenure saves the most interest. Ask Simpledot with your exact loan details for a prepayment schedule.
