Methodology
How This Calculator Works
EMI Calculation
We use the standard EMI formula: EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n - 1)
Where:
- P = Loan principal
- r = Monthly interest rate
- n = Loan tenure in months
Investment Growth
Renting scenario assumes you invest:
- The down payment amount
- The difference between EMI and rent each year
Both grow at your chosen investment return rate (default: 10% annually).
Assumptions
- Rent increases annually (not monthly)
- Property appreciates linearly
- Investment returns compound annually
- No transaction costs included (stamp duty, brokerage)
- Maintenance costs not factored in
