How to calculate EMI?

The home loan EMI amount is calculated based on the loan amount, the interest rate, and the tenure of the loan. Here is a brief explanation of how these factors affect the calculation of a home loan:

• Loan amount: The loan amount is the amount of money that you borrow from the lender to buy your home. 

• Interest rate: The interest rate is the amount charged by the lender on the loan amount. It can be fixed or floating, and it can vary depending on the lender’s policies, your credit score, and other factors.

• Loan tenure: The loan tenure is the duration of the loan, which can range from 5 to 30 years.

Formula to calculate Home Loan EMI?

The mathematical formula to calculate the home loan EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) in home loan calculator is as follows:

EMI = [P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1]
where:
P = Loan amount (principal)
R = Interest rate per month [(Annual Interest rate/12)/100]
N = Loan tenure in months

New Tax Regime for Home Loans in India?

New Tax Regime

There were slight changes made to the home loan tax benefits under the new tax regime which were announced during the Union Budget 2023 by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.

The majority of other deductions, including those for home loans, house rent allowance (HRA), etc., are not available in the new tax regime, despite the introduction of a standard deduction of Rs.52,500.
