P= Principal loan amount | R= Monthly interest rate (annual interest rate divided by 12) | N= Loan tenure in months
**To explain it further, let’s see an example:**
Suppose you take a loan for ₹5,00,000 with an annual interest rate (IR) of 10% for a tenure of, say, 5 years (60 months).
First, convert the annual interest rate to a monthly interest rate. In this case, the monthly interest rate would be 10%/12 = 0.00833.
Using the formula, you can calculate the EMI as follows:
EMI = [500000 x 0.00833 x (1+0.00833)^60] / [(1+0.00833)^60-1]
By simplifying the equation, you will find that the EMI for this loan would be approximately ₹10,609.
This means that your monthly payment will be ₹10,609 for 60 months to repay the loan amount along with the interest.
