UNDERSTANDING EMI
How Is Credit Card EMI Calculated?
Credit card EMI is generally calculated by applying the eligible interest rate to a qualifying transaction. However, many card offers have conditions such as monthly interest rates, processing fees, minimum transaction amounts, or tenure restrictions.
Monthly EMI = [P × R × (1 + R)^N] / [(1 + R)^N − 1]
If GST applies on interest, the actual monthly outflow increases beyond the base EMI.
Total Monthly Outflow = Monthly EMI + GST on Interest
Finally, applicable processing fees and taxes are added to estimate the total extra payable.
Total Extra Payable = Total Interest + GST on Interest + Processing Fee + GST on Fee
Example
Suppose you convert an outstanding balance of ₹50,000 into a 12-month EMI at a 1.5% monthly interest rate with a ₹500 processing fee.
Outstanding Principal
₹50,000
Monthly Interest Rate
1.5%
Tenure
12 Months
Base Monthly EMI
₹4,584
One-Time Fee + GST
₹590
Why Total Payable Increases
Converting transactions to EMI distributes payments over time, but added interest charges, processing fees, and 18% GST increase the total amount you pay back over the tenure.
Effective Total Payable
₹55,598
Total amount paid back including principal, interest, and taxes over 12 months.
