Frequently Asked Questions
How do banks calculate my loan eligibility in India?
Banks use the FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio), typically capping your total monthly debt payments (including the new loan EMI) at 45% to 50% of your net monthly income.
What factors affect home loan eligibility?
Key factors include your monthly income, current age, existing EMI obligations, credit (CIBIL) score, employment stability, and the value of the property.
How can I increase my loan eligibility?
You can increase eligibility by adding a co-applicant (e.g. spouse), clearing existing short-term loans, declaring other income sources, or choosing a longer tenure.
Does a higher credit score increase loan eligibility?
Yes, a high credit score (750+) not only makes you eligible but can also help you secure a lower interest rate, reducing your EMI and increasing the eligible loan amount.
