What is a Loan Interest Calculator?
A Loan Interest Calculator is an online financial tool that helps borrowers calculate the interest payable on a loan based on the principal amount, interest rate, and loan duration. Toolvala.in’s Loan Interest Calculator is designed for Indian users who deal with banks, NBFCs, private lenders, and informal monthly interest loans.
This calculator supports both monthly and yearly interest rates, making it extremely useful for personal loans, home loans, business loans, gold loans, and private lending scenarios commonly found in India.
How Loan Interest is Calculated
Loan interest is the cost you pay for borrowing money. In simple interest loans, interest is calculated only on the original principal amount. The formula used is:
Simple Interest = (Principal × Rate × Time) ÷ 100
Toolvala.in automatically converts monthly interest into yearly format when required, ensuring accurate and standardized results.
Monthly vs Yearly Interest Rates
Many private lenders in India quote interest on a monthly basis, such as 2% per month. Banks usually quote annual interest rates. A 2% monthly rate effectively becomes 24% per year, which significantly increases the loan cost. Our calculator helps you understand the true cost of borrowing.
