Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a monthly payment?
    • A monthly payment (sometimes called EMI or Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed amount you pay every month to repay your loan, consisting of both principal and interest components.
  • How is my monthly payment calculated?
    • Your monthly payment is calculated using the loan amount, interest rate, and tenure. The formula ensures equal payments throughout the loan period, with the interest portion higher in the early months and principal portion higher in later months.
  • What factors affect my monthly payment?
    • Loan amount (principal)
    • Interest rate
    • Loan tenure (duration)
    • Frequency of payments (monthly, bi-weekly, etc.)
  • Can I prepay my loan and reduce my monthly payment?
    • Yes, you can make prepayments towards your loan. This can either reduce your monthly payment or shorten your loan tenure, depending on your lender's policy and your preference.
    • Check for any prepayment penalties or conditions in your loan agreement.
  • Why does the interest portion of my monthly payment decrease over time?
    • In the initial months, the outstanding principal is higher, so the interest portion is larger. As you repay the principal, the interest portion decreases and the principal portion increases in each monthly payment.
  • What happens if I miss a monthly payment?
    • Missing a monthly payment can result in late fees, penalties, and a negative impact on your credit score. It may also increase your overall interest burden.
    • Contact your lender immediately if you anticipate difficulty in making payments.
  • Can I change my monthly payment amount during the loan tenure?
    • Some lenders allow you to change your monthly payment amount by making part-prepayments or restructuring your loan. This may affect your loan tenure or total interest paid.
    • Check with your lender for available options and any associated charges.
  • How can I reduce my monthly payment burden?
    • Opt for a longer tenure (though this increases total interest paid)
    • Make part-prepayments whenever possible
    • Negotiate for a lower interest rate with your lender
    • Compare loan offers before choosing a lender
