Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 40% DTI rule?

The 40% DTI (Debt-to-Income) rule means your total monthly EMI payments should not exceed 40% of your net monthly income. Most Indian lenders use this as the maximum threshold for loan approval.

What is the difference between affordability and eligibility?

Loan eligibility is the maximum amount a lender will approve. Loan affordability is how much you can comfortably repay without financial stress. Affordability is often lower than eligibility — borrow what you can afford, not the maximum you qualify for.

How can I improve my loan affordability?

Increase your income, reduce existing debt obligations, improve your credit score, or choose a longer tenure to lower the monthly EMI. Paying off existing loans before taking a new one significantly improves your affordability.
