Car Loan EMI Calculator

What is a Car Loan?

A Car Loan is a financing facility offered by banks and financial institutions to help individuals purchase a new or used car. The borrower repays the loan through monthly instalments over an agreed tenure.

How is Car Loan EMI Calculated?

Car Loan EMI depends on the principal loan amount, monthly interest rate and repayment tenure.

Formula: EMI = P × R × (1 + R)^N ÷ [(1 + R)^N − 1]

P = Principal amount, R = Monthly interest rate and N = Total monthly instalments.

Factors Affecting Car Loan EMI

• Loan Amount: Higher borrowing generally increases EMI.
• Interest Rate: A higher interest rate increases the repayment cost.
• Loan Tenure: Longer tenure generally lowers monthly EMI but can increase total interest.
• Down Payment: A higher down payment can reduce the amount you need to borrow.
• Credit Profile: Credit history and repayment capacity can influence lender decisions.

Documents Generally Required for a Car Loan

• PAN Card and identity proof
• Aadhaar Card or address proof
• Recent salary slips or income proof
• Bank statements
• ITR or business income documents, where applicable
• Vehicle quotation or proforma invoice
