Factors Affecting Housing Loan Eligibility

These factors affect your housing loan eligibility:

​

  • Your Monthly income: Your monthly income is one of the most important aspects of a home loan application process. It helps lenders decide the total amount of loan that you can afford. A person with a low income will be eligible for a lower loan amount and vice versa.

  • Your Current Age: Next important factor that affects your home loan eligibility is your current age. If you are young, then you can opt for a long loan tenure. Since tenure is long your interest rate will be low, which, in turn, will lower your EMI.

  • Credit History: A good credit history indicates that you are sincere in paying your dues and that you have a solid financial state. A good credit history leaves a positive impact on the lenders, which increases your chances of getting a home loan.

  • Existing Loan Obligations: It is to keep in mind that if you have any existing loan obligations, it can impact your housing loan eligibility. These are considered as regular monthly expenses that can affect your loan repayment ability.

  • Regulatory Requirements: The National Housing Bank (NHB) has set a limit that decides the maximum loan amount that can be disbursed. This depends on the cost of the residence. The high-priced homes in the market may have lower maximum limit while the lower-priced homes may have a higher maxim limit.

What is Home Loan EMI?

Home loan EMI is a systematic and easy approach towards home loan repayment. EMI stands for equated monthly installment, which includes principal amount, and the interest payable divided through the tenure chosen. Home loan borrower has to make the repayment of the loan each month in the form of home loan EMI.

How is EMI on Home Loan Calculated?

The EMI on a home loan is calculated using a formula that considers the loan's principal amount, the tenure in months, and the monthly interest rate. The formula for calculating Equated Monthly Installment (EMI) for a home loan is as follows:

EMI= [P x R x (1+R)^N]/[(1+R)^N-1]

Where P = Loan’s principal amount

R = Monthly rate of interest

N = Tenure of the loan (in months)

For example:

For a home loan amount of 50,00,000 INR for 20 years and the yearly rate of interest of 6.55%, the EMI amount will be computed as follows:

EMI = [50,00,000*0.005*(1+0.005) ^240]/[(1+0.005)^240-1] = 37,426 INR
