Personal Loan True APR
Rs 5 Lakh Personal Loan True Cost
Calculate the EMI, interest, fees, GST, net disbursal and effective APR of an Rs 5 lakh personal loan before accepting an offer.
Direct answer
What is the true cost of an Rs 5 lakh personal loan?
True cost is the scheduled interest plus attributable charges, measured against the net amount available—not just the Rs 5 lakh sanction. The exact result depends on the rate, tenure, fee, GST, insurance and payment timing.
Worked example
Enter Rs 5 lakh, 12%, 36 months, 2% fee and 18% GST on the fee. Add insurance only if attributable to the loan offer, then compare effective APR with the quoted 12%.
What to check
- Record sanctioned and net disbursed amounts.
- Include compulsory attributable charges.
- Longer tenure can lower EMI but raise total interest.
How the calculator approaches it
- 1.Calculate EMI from sanctioned principal, reducing rate and tenure.
- 2.Subtract attributable upfront charges and advance EMIs from the cash received.
- 3.Solve the monthly internal rate that equates net cash with later repayments.
- 4.Annualise the result and compare it with the lender Key Facts Statement.
Important limitation
Dates, broken-period interest, rounding and charge classification can change APR. The lender Key Facts Statement is the offer-specific disclosure to verify.
