Frequently asked questions

How is car loan EMI calculated?

EMI = P × r × (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1), where P is the loan amount, r is the monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100) and n is the number of monthly instalments.

Does a longer tenure reduce my EMI?

Yes, a longer tenure lowers the monthly EMI, but you pay more total interest over the life of the loan.

What is a good down payment for a car loan?

Most buyers pay 10–20% of the on-road price upfront. A larger down payment reduces the loan amount, EMI and total interest.
