What is a Mortgage EMI?

EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment. It is the fixed payment you make to your lender every month to repay your home loan.

The Mortgage Payment Formula

EMI = [P × r × (1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n – 1]

Where: P = Principal, r = Monthly rate, n = Number of installments

₹50 lakhs at 8.5% for 20 years = ₹43,391/month
