Loan Eligibility Calculator India — Check Your Home, Personal & Car Loan Amount 2025

Banks in India use FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) to determine loan eligibility — typically allowing 40–55% of your net monthly income toward total EMI obligations. This calculator shows you the maximum loan amount you qualify for across major lenders, and how improving your credit score or reducing existing EMIs can significantly increase your eligibility.

📐 Formula & How It Works

Max EMI Allowed = Net Monthly Income × FOIR − Existing EMIs
Max Loan = Max EMI × [(1+r)^n − 1] / [r × (1+r)^n]

Where FOIR = 40–50%, r = monthly interest rate, n = loan tenure in months.

Example: Salary ₹80,000/month. Existing EMI ₹15,000. FOIR 50%: Max EMI = ₹40,000 − ₹15,000 = ₹25,000. At 8.5% for 20 years → Max Loan = ₹27.3 Lakhs.

🛠️ How to Use This Calculator

  1. Step 1: Enter your gross monthly income — include all stable income sources (salary, rental income, freelance if regular).
  2. Step 2: Add all existing EMIs — home loan, car loan, personal loan, credit card minimum dues.
  3. Step 3: Enter the interest rate for your target loan type — check current bank websites for accurate rates.
  4. Step 4: Set repayment tenure — longer tenure increases eligibility but means more total interest paid.
  5. Step 5: Check bank-wise eligibility table — different lenders have different FOIR norms; apply where you qualify best.
💡 Pro Tips
✓ Clear small personal loans and credit card dues before applying — they reduce your eligibility significantly.
✓ Adding a co-borrower (spouse with income) can increase combined eligibility by 60–80%.
✓ CIBIL score above 750 gets you best rates. Check for free at CIBIL.com once/year or use Bajaj Finserv app anytime.
✓ Choose a longer tenure to increase eligibility amount, then prepay to reduce total interest — best of both worlds.
✓ Apply for pre-approved loans before searching for property — knowing your limit helps focus the property search.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is FOIR and how is it used for loan eligibility? +

FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) is the percentage of your monthly income that can go toward all loan EMIs combined. Banks allow 40–55% typically. If your salary is ₹1L and FOIR is 50%, your total monthly EMI (existing + new) cannot exceed ₹50,000.

What CIBIL score is needed for a home loan in India? +

750+ for best rates (8.5–9% for home loans). 700–749: approval likely but slightly higher rate. 650–699: may require extra documentation or higher rate. Below 650: many banks will reject; approach NBFCs or improve score first.

How can I increase my home loan eligibility? +

1) Add a co-borrower (working spouse). 2) Close existing small loans. 3) Choose longer tenure (25–30 years). 4) Opt for balance transfer from existing high-rate home loan to get better overall FOIR. 5) Include variable income with supporting ITR documents.

Can self-employed people get home loans? +

Yes, but with more documentation — last 3 years ITR, CA-certified P&L, business bank statements. Banks assess average 2-year net profit as income. Higher CIBIL score (750+) is even more important for self-employed applicants.

What is the maximum home loan tenure in India? +

Typically up to 30 years, but capped at age 70–75 at the time of last EMI. So a 50-year-old can typically get maximum 20–25 year tenure. Retirement age matters — banks prefer loan closure before retirement.

Does existing home loan affect personal loan eligibility? +

Yes significantly. A ₹50,000 home loan EMI reduces personal loan eligibility substantially. Banks look at total FOIR including all obligations. Pay down or foreclose small personal loans before applying for larger loans.
