Based on your salary bracket, banks will allow up to 50% of your income to go towards EMIs.
The Math Behind Home Loan Eligibility Checker
Banks do not calculate eligibility based purely on your CIBIL score. They use a strict mathematical underwriting formula known as the Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio (FOIR).
1. The FOIR Limit
For home loans, banks prefer your total EMIs (including the new one) to stay under 50% of your net monthly income.
2. Stretch Factor
For very high income brackets (> ₹3L/month), banks may stretch the FOIR up to 65% because discretionary living expenses are proportionally lower.
3. Hidden Debt Trap
Applying for loans you are not eligible for triggers 'Hard Inquiries' on your CIBIL, instantly dropping your score and making future approvals harder.
