What This Education Loan Calculator Does

  • Moratorium handling — interest accrues during course + 6–12 months and is added to principal
  • EMI calculated on the capitalised amount, not just the disbursed amount
  • Section 80E — entire interest deductible with no upper limit, for up to 8 years (Old and New Regime)
  • Future affordability — EMI as a percentage of expected post-course salary
  • Effect of paying simple interest during the moratorium to cut long-term EMI

Education Loan EMI — Frequently Asked Questions

How is education loan EMI calculated and when does repayment start?

Repayment usually begins 6–12 months after course completion (the moratorium). Interest accrues on disbursed amounts during the course + moratorium and, if unpaid, is capitalised. EMI is then calculated on the total outstanding (principal + accrued interest), so your effective loan is larger than disbursed.

How does the moratorium period affect my EMI?

A ₹10L loan at 10% with a 3-year moratorium accumulates about ₹3.3L of interest. EMIs then start on ₹13.3L, not ₹10L. Paying even partial interest during the moratorium meaningfully reduces the long-term EMI burden.

Does education loan interest qualify for tax deduction?

Yes — Section 80E allows the entire interest paid to be deducted from taxable income with no upper limit, for up to 8 consecutive years from when repayment begins. It applies to interest only (not principal) and is available under both the Old and New Tax Regime.
