What is EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed amount you pay every month to repay a loan. It includes both principal and interest components, calculated based on loan amount, interest rate, and tenure.

EMI Formula:

EMI = [P × R × (1 + R)^N] / [(1 + R)^N - 1]

P = Loan Amount

R = Monthly Interest Rate

N = Loan Tenure (months)
