EMI is calculated using the loan amount, applicable interest rate and repayment tenure selected by the borrower. E = P x R x (1+r)^n/((1+r)^N – 1 Where,

• E = Equated Monthly Instalment
• ‘P’ stands for principal amount
• ‘R’ denotes applicable rate of interest
• ‘N’ stands for the loan term or tenure

The EMI amount includes both principal and interest components spread across the selected repayment period.

Common Mistakes to Avoid While Using a Credit Card EMI Calculator
Avoid these common errors when using a Credit Card EMI Calculator:

• Ignoring processing fee and GST: Charges like the Instant EMI fee or EMI on Call fee add to your total cost beyond the displayed EMI.
• Focusing only on the monthly EMI: A lower EMI does not mean a cheaper deal. Always check the total interest amount payable across the full tenure.
  
• Selecting an extended tenure for lower EMIs: A longer tenure reduces monthly outflow but significantly increases the overall Credit Card EMI interest burden.
• Overlooking foreclosure charges: Prepayment or foreclosure fees may apply if you decide to close the EMI early, affecting your actual savings.
