I picked up following information from their website which explains how EMI is calculated
Here’s the formula to calculate EMI:
where
E is EMI
P is Principal Loan Amount
r is rate of interest calculated on monthly basis. (i.e., r = Rate of Annual interest/12/100. If rate of interest is 10.5% per annum, then r = 10.5/12/100=0.00875)
n is loan term / tenure / duration in number of months
For example, if you borrow

10,00,000 from the bank at 10.5% annual interest for a period of 10 years (i.e., 120 months), then EMI =

10,00,000 * 0.00875 * (1 + 0.00875)
120 / ((1 + 0.00875)
120 – 1) =

13,493. i.e., you will have to pay

13,493 for 120 months to repay the entire loan amount. The total amount payable will be

13,493 * 120 =

16,19,220 that includes

6,19,220 as interest toward the loan.
