About Home Loan Eligibility Calculator

The Home Loan Eligibility Calculator estimates the maximum home loan amount you can qualify for based on monthly salary, existing debts, loan tenure, and standard bank FOIR / DTI limits.

Formula & Mathematical Calculation

Available Home Loan EMI = ( Net Monthly Income × FOIR % ) - Existing Monthly EMIs

Max Eligible Loan Principal = Available EMI × [ (1 + r)^n - 1 ] / [ r(1 + r)^n ]

Calculation Example

Example: $8,000/mo net salary, $800/mo existing debts, 50% FOIR limit @ 7% for 25 yrs → Max Eligible Loan = $452,736.

Assumptions & Limitations

What the calculation assumes

  • Every value you enter is treated as an exact, known amount.
  • Rates and contributions are assumed to stay constant for the whole period unless the form asks for them separately.
  • Results use standard financial formulas and ignore fees, penalties and promotional terms that are not entered above.
  • Inflation, tax changes and market volatility are not modelled unless a field for them is provided.
  • Amounts are unit-agnostic: results are returned in the same currency you enter.

What it does not cover

  • Home Loan Eligibility Calculator produces estimates for education and planning, not a quote, offer or professional advice.
  • Real-world outcomes differ when fees, taxes, rounding rules or provider-specific terms apply.
  • Local regulations and tax rules vary by country and change over time; verify current rules for your jurisdiction.
  • Figures are only as accurate as the inputs you supply — check them before acting on the result.
  • For decisions with lasting financial impact, confirm the numbers with a qualified professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

FOIR measures the percentage of your net monthly income already allocated toward existing fixed debt obligations (EMIs, car loans, credit cards). Lenders generally allow a maximum FOIR between 40% and 55% for all combined debts.

Adding a working spouse or immediate family member as a co-borrower combines both monthly income profiles into the eligibility underwriting, substantially expanding the maximum allowable monthly EMI and loan principal.

Extending the repayment tenure reduces the monthly EMI per dollar borrowed, enabling you to qualify for a larger initial loan under debt ratio caps. However, the extended duration compounds interest over more years, elevating lifetime financing costs.

Minimum monthly credit card payments are factored directly into your debt ratio as permanent obligations, directly decreasing the residual income available to support a new mortgage payment.
