How the EMI is calculated

On a reducing-balance loan the instalment is fixed but its split is not: early instalments are mostly interest, later ones mostly principal. For a principal P, a monthly rate r and N months, the instalment is P × r × (1 + r)N ÷ ((1 + r)N − 1).

Stretching the tenure lowers the instalment and raises the total interest, often by more than people expect. Compare the total payable figure, not just the monthly one.
