What is Home Loan EMI?
EMI stands for equated monthly instalment is a systematic approach to repay the loan by the borrower to the lender in equal and fixed instalments by the end of the loan tenure.
An EMI basically consists of two components- the principal amount and interest due on the outstanding loan amount.
Compared to other categories of loan, the housing loan has a maximum tenure of up to 20 years, and the EMI can be planned according to your repayment capability.
Factors Affecting Home Loan EMI
The home loan EMI is calculated using the following formula:
EMI = [P x R x (1+R) ^N]/[(1+R) ^N-1]
Here, the P stands for the principal amount, R stands for rate of interest and N stands for the number of years.
All online home loan calculators use the above formula to calculate house loan EMI. By adjusting the rate of interest and loan tenure, you can check the EMI under different scenarios and tenure instantly.
For example, a home loan with a maximum tenure of 20 years will have a lower EMI payment compared to loan tenure of 15 years. Although the EMI of a home loan with longer tenure is lower, the overall cost is higher because of the higher interest outflow.

What is the Home Loan Amortization Schedule?
While the EMI during the loan tenure remains uniform, the constitution of EMI changes every passing month with each EMI payment.
For instance, at the starting of home loan tenure, the interest component constitutes the major portion of the EMI due to higher interest outstanding. As tenor progresses, the constitution of interest components continue to decline with every EMI payment, thereby increasing the share of the principal component.
This is where the amortization schedule provides the accurate break-up of principal and interest payout in each EMI with their respective balances across the tenor. In short, it provides a roadmap towards the repayment of the home loan and different milestones.
The table helps you in effective tax planning and claim deduction on both the home loan principal and interest repayment under different sections of the Income Tax Act.
When does Home Loan EMI Start and Become Due?
In general practice, the home loan EMI starts from the following month of the loan disbursal and the EMI is due on a fixed date each month, which is notified at the time of disbursal or approval.
In the case of a moratorium on home loan EMI payment is agreed upon, it would start after the predefined period. However, the interest will continue to get added to your home loan during the period of the moratorium.
Can I Prepay My Home Loan?
Yes, you can part-prepay your outstanding home loan amount, which can be several times your home loan EMI. The prepayment will result in a reduction in the outstanding home loan amount, thereby reducing your net interest expenses.
