Formula & Explanation
EMI = (P + Interest during moratorium) × r × (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n - 1)Education loans have a moratorium period (course duration + 6-12 months) during which simple interest accumulates on the principal. After moratorium, EMI is calculated on the total outstanding (principal + accrued interest) using the standard reducing balance method.

About Education Loan Calculator
Our Education Loan Calculator helps students and parents plan education financing by calculating EMI after the moratorium period. Unlike regular loans, education loans have a grace period (moratorium) during which you don't pay EMI but interest accumulates. This calculator accounts for that, showing your true repayment cost.
Frequently Asked Questions
Moratorium period is the grace period during which you don't need to pay EMI. It typically covers your course duration plus 6-12 months after completion. However, simple interest accumulates during this period and gets added to your principal.
Yes, under Section 80E of the Income Tax Act, the entire interest paid on education loans is tax deductible for up to 8 years from the start of repayment. There is no upper limit on the deduction amount, unlike Section 80C.
For studies in India, most banks offer up to ₹10-15 lakh without collateral. For abroad studies, loans up to ₹20-40 lakh are available without collateral, and up to ₹1.5 crore with collateral depending on the bank and course.
If you can afford it, paying at least the interest during moratorium is highly recommended. This prevents interest from compounding on your principal and can save you 15-25% on total interest cost over the loan tenure.
