About Loan Eligibility Calculator

The Loan Eligibility Calculator helps you estimate how much loan you can qualify for based on your monthly income, existing EMIs, interest rate, and loan tenure. Perfect for home loans, personal loans, car loans, and education loans.

Banks use the FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) method to calculate eligibility. Our calculator uses 45% FOIR, which is the standard benchmark used by most Indian banks.

How to Use This Loan Eligibility Calculator

Step 1: Enter your monthly income (after taxes).

Step 2: Enter your existing monthly EMIs (car loan, personal loan, credit card EMIs).

Step 3: Enter the expected interest rate for your new loan.

Step 4: Enter the loan tenure (years) you're planning for.

Step 5: Click "Check Your Eligibility" to see maximum loan amount.

Step 6: Use the Reset button to clear all inputs and try different scenarios.

Why Use a Loan Eligibility Calculator?

✓ Avoid Rejection

Know your eligibility before applying. Loan rejection hurts credit score. Apply only to banks where you qualify.

✓ Negotiate Better

Know your maximum eligible amount. Don't let banks offer you less than what you qualify for.

✓ Plan Your Finances

Calculate how much house/car you can afford. Plan down payment accordingly.

✓ Compare Banks

Different banks have different FOIR limits (40-50%). Check eligibility across multiple banks.

Factors That Affect Your Loan Eligibility

  • Monthly Income: Higher income = higher eligibility. Banks prefer 40-50% FOIR.
  • Existing EMIs: Car loans, personal loans, credit card EMIs reduce eligibility.
  • Credit Score (CIBIL): 750+ gives highest eligibility. Below 650 reduces amount by 20-30%.
  • Loan Tenure: Longer tenure = lower EMI = higher eligibility.
  • Age & Retirement: Applicants under 35 get higher eligibility. Loans must close before retirement (age 60-65).

How Banks Calculate Your Loan Eligibility

Banks want to be sure you can comfortably repay the loan. They typically use a formula called FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) - basically, your total monthly EMI payments shouldn't exceed 40-50% of your monthly take-home salary. We've used 45% in this calculator, which is a middle-ground benchmark most banks follow.

Tips to Increase Your Loan Eligibility

📈

Add a Co-Applicant

Include your spouse's income. Banks combine both incomes, which can double your eligibility.

💳

Improve Your Credit Score

A score above 750 can increase eligible amount by 10-15% and get you better rates.

📉

Pay Off Small Loans First

Closing credit cards or small personal loans frees up EMI capacity for the new loan.

Choose Longer Tenure

A longer loan tenure means smaller EMIs, which increases eligibility (but you'll pay more interest).
