Description

In finance and economics, interest is payment from a borrower or deposit-taking financial institution to a lender or depositor of an amount above repayment of the principal sum, at a particular rate. It is distinct from a fee which the borrower may pay to the lender or some third party. It is also distinct from dividend which is paid by a company to its shareholders (owners) from its profit or reserve, but not at a particular rate decided beforehand, rather on a pro rata basis as a share in the reward gained by risk taking entrepreneurs when the revenue earned exceeds the total costs.

ब्याज एक ऐसा शुल्क है जो उधार ली गयी संपत्ति (ऋण) के लिए किया जाता है। यह उधार लिए गए पैसे के लिए अदा की गयी कीमत है, या, जमा धन से अर्जित किया गया पैसा है। जिन संपत्तियों को ब्याज के साथ उधार दिया जाता है उनमें शामिल हैं धन, शेयर, किराए पर खरीद द्वारा उपभोक्ता वस्तुएं, प्रमुख संपत्तियां जैसे विमान और कभी-कभी वित्त पट्टा व्यवस्था पर दिया गया पूरा कारखाना. ब्याज की गणना परिसंपत्तियों के मूल्य पर ठीक उसी प्रकार की जाती है जैसे पैसे पर.
