A payment of ₹36,500 includes interest of ₹6,500. What amount reduces the principal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹30,000

The governing concept is that a combined payment must be separated into its interest and principal components. The total payment is ₹36,500, of which ₹6,500 represents interest. The amount applied toward principal is therefore calculated as: ₹36,500 − ₹6,500 = ₹30,000. Hence, option A is correct, and the loan principal is reduced by ₹30,000. Option B is the complete payment and includes both components, so it cannot represent only principal repayment. Option C is the interest portion and does not reduce principal. Option D incorrectly adds interest to the total payment. This separation is necessary because interest is an expense, whereas principal repayment reduces the outstanding loan liability.
