1 paise is equal to 1/100 rupees.

therefore 5 paise is equal to 5/100 rupees.

the interest charge per month is therefore 5/100 rupees for every rupee that is borrowed.

the interest rate per month is therefore (5/100) / 1 which is equal to 5/100 which is equal to .05 per month.

multiply that by 100 to get an interest rate of 5% per month.
