Understanding Credit Card EMI Conversions
Credit Card EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is a facility that allows you to pay off a large purchase or your total outstanding balance in smaller monthly chunks. When you convert a transaction to EMI, the bank charges a reduced interest rate (usually 13%–18% p.a.) compared to the standard revolving credit card interest rates(36%–42% p.a.), making it a smarter way to manage debt.
EMI vs. Minimum Amount Due
Why you should almost always choose EMI over paying just the minimum due. See the full repayment comparison.
| Feature | Credit Card EMI | Minimum Due Payment |
|---|---|---|
| Interest Rate | 13% – 18% p.a. | 36% – 42% p.a. |
| GST on Interest | No (Mostly) | Yes (18% Extra) |
| Debt Reduction | Systematic (Cleared in Tenure) | Negligible (Minimum due trap) |
| Processing Fee | Yes (One-time) | No |
Hidden Costs of EMI Conversion
| Cost Component | Typical Charge | GST Impact | Expert Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Processing Fee | 1% – 3% of Loan Amount (Min ₹99–₹199) | +18% GST | Charged upfront in the first bill. Non-refundable. |
| Foreclosure Fee | 3% of Outstanding Balance | +18% GST | Avoid closing EMI early if tenure is nearly over. |
| No Cost EMI | Interest offered as Discount | GST on Interest | Bank still charges GST on the interest portion even if interest is waived. |
