Over the full term you would repay ₹61,54,959, and ₹11,54,959 of that is interest. The table below shows the 5-year EMI for loans from ₹20 lakh to ₹1 crore at rates from 7.5% to 10%.

What if…
One prepayment or a 0.5% rate change can move your interest by lakhs. Try one.
· Add a one-time payment or an extra monthly amount to see the saving.
Worth knowing
For every ₹1 you borrow, you pay back ₹0.23 in interest.
In year 1, more of your EMI starts going to the loan than to interest.
Pay one extra EMI a year and you save ₹92,033 and finish 4 months early.
Banks use the standard reducing-balance formula:
EMI = P × r × (1+r)n / ((1+r)n − 1)
P is the loan amount, r is the monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n is the number of months.
With your numbers
- P = ₹50,00,000
- r = 8.5% ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.007083
- n = 60 months
- EMI = ₹1,02,583
Each month interest is charged on what you still owe. That is why early EMIs are mostly interest.
