It consists of both the principal amount and the interest charged on the loan. One may want to skip a Loan EMI for a month due to various reasons such as unexpected financial emergencies, cash crunch, lack of funds due to some unforeseen circumstances or to manage their monthly budget more effectively. However, it should be noted that skipping an EMI will result in additional interest charges and fees.
