How the Personal Loan Calculator works

This calculator computes the EMI and total interest for a personal loan. Personal loans are unsecured, so they carry higher interest rates than home or car loans — making tenure and rate especially important.

It uses the standard reducing-balance EMI formula from the loan amount, rate and tenure.

EMI formula

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)ⁿ / ((1 + r)ⁿ − 1)

P = principal, r = monthly rate, n = months.

Frequently asked questions

Why are personal loan interest rates high?+

Personal loans are unsecured (no collateral), so lenders charge more to cover risk — often 10–24% p.a. depending on your credit profile.

How can I get a lower personal loan rate?+

A higher credit score, stable income and existing relationship with the lender help. Compare offers before choosing.

Is a personal loan better than a credit card?+

For larger amounts repaid over time, a personal loan's rate is usually much lower than a credit card's, making it cheaper.
