Simple Interest Calculator

Overview

The Simple Interest Calculator helps you quickly compute the total interest earned or payable on a loan or investment over a specific period. Unlike compound interest, simple interest is calculated only on the principal amount, making it easy to understand and apply for short-term loans, savings, and fixed deposits.

Formula Used

The calculator uses the standard simple interest formula:

SI=P×R×T100SI = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100}SI=100P×R×T​

Where:

• SI = Simple Interest
• P = Principal Amount (Initial Investment or Loan)
• R = Annual Interest Rate (%)
• T = Time (in years)

Example Calculation

📌 Example:

• Principal Amount (P): ₹50,000
• Annual Interest Rate (R): 10%
• Time Period (T): 3 years

💡 Calculation:

SI=50,000×10×3100SI = \frac{50,000 \times 10 \times 3}{100}SI=10050,000×10×3​ SI=15,00,000100=15,000SI = \frac{15,00,000}{100} = 15,000SI=10015,00,000​=15,000
