How this is calculated

Formula

EMI = B × i × (1 + i)ⁿ ÷ [(1 + i)ⁿ − 1], B = balance when repayment starts

With your numbers

  1. 1Moratorium interestP × i × m₹10,00,000, 48 months → ₹4,00,000
  2. 2Balance when repayment starts₹10,00,000 + ₹4,00,000 = ₹14,00,000
  3. 3EMI₹14,00,000 over 120 months = ₹18,501
Monthly EMI₹18,501
  • Interest subsidy schemes, which pay the moratorium interest for eligible students, are not modelled.
