Where P = Principal Amount, R = Annual Rate of Interest, T = Time Period in Years.

What is Simple Interest?

Simple interest is calculated exclusively on the original principal amount throughout the entire tenure without compounding.

Simple Interest Calculation

Because interest is not added back to principal, yearly interest remains identical every single year.

Example Simple Interest

Principal P₹50,000
Simple Interest Earned₹12,000
Total Payable₹62,000

Annual interest is fixed at ₹4,000 per year.
