How Personal Loan EMIs Work

A Personal Loan Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) consists of two components: the principal repayment and the interest payment. In the early years of your loan, a larger portion of your EMI goes toward paying off the interest, while in the later years, the majority goes toward reducing the principal amount.

Unsecured Nature of Personal Loans

Unlike car loans or home loans, personal loans are "unsecured," meaning you do not have to provide collateral (like property or a vehicle) to get the loan. Because the risk to the bank is higher, personal loan interest rates are typically higher than secured loan rates.

Impact of Loan Tenure

While stretching your loan over 5 to 7 years will reduce your monthly EMI, it drastically increases the total interest you end up paying to the bank. It is advisable to choose the shortest tenure you can comfortably afford to minimize the cost of borrowing.
