What EMI is
EMI is the fixed amount you pay each month until a loan is repaid. Each payment covers some interest and some principal; early on it's mostly interest, and later mostly principal — that's called amortisation.
What drives your payment
- Loan amount — more borrowed, higher EMI.
- Interest rate — even a small rate change moves the total interest a lot.
- Term — a longer term lowers the monthly payment but increases total interest paid.

The lesson most people miss
Stretching a loan over more years makes each payment smaller but can dramatically increase the total interest you pay. Compare a few terms before committing.
