What is EMI?
EMI stands for Equated Monthly Installment - the fixed monthly payment to repay a loan. It includes both principal and interest components.
Simple vs Compound Interest?
Simple interest calculates only on principal. Compound interest calculates on principal + accumulated interest. Compound interest results in higher total interest.
What is compounding frequency?
How often interest is calculated - yearly, half-yearly, quarterly, monthly, or daily. Higher frequency = more interest accumulation.
How does prepayment help?
Extra payments directly reduce principal, saving interest and shortening loan tenure. Use our prepayment calculator to see exact savings.
What is effective interest rate?
Effective rate accounts for compounding frequency. For example, 8.5% nominal compounded monthly equals ~8.83% effective annual rate.
