HDFC Home Loan Eligibility Calculator

HDFC offers loan to self employed and businessmen for financing the expansion or working capital requirements of their business. There are some benefits of taking loan from HDFC:

• Net income: Your net monthly income (take home salary after all deductions like PF, ESI, gratuity) determines your home loan servicing capacity. It determines how much home loan EMI you are capable of paying after meeting living expenses based on your standard of living. For instance, if your salary is ₹ 25,000 then at interest rate of 6.75% offered by HDFC, the loan amount that you will be eligible for (assuming you have no other EMI’s to pay) would be ₹ 28,30,416 to ₹ 50,10,807 depending on your age. Similarly, if your salary is ₹ 75,000, you might get eligible for a loan amount of ₹ 56,60,832 to ₹ 1,00,21,614 for same property at same rate depending on your age at the time of loan application.

You may consider repaying any loans with short tenure and high EMI in order to increase your HDFC home loan eligibility.

• Nature of employment: HDFC will check whether you are salaried or self employed and the company and sector in which you are working. It also looks at your years of experience to check for job and income stability. HDFC requires minimum income history and job stability of more than 1 years for salaried individuals and of 5 years for self employed individuals.

• Age: Your age plays an important role in determining your eligibility and repayment capacity for home loan. Lower your age, higher will be the time period available to repay the loan, and hence higher home loan amount eligibility. HDFC home loan age limit to get the loan is 24 years of age at the time of loan commencement. HDFC offers home loans for a maximum period of 30 Years years subject to the condition that the borrower’s age at the end of the tenure must not exceed 30 Years years for salaried borrowers and 30 Years years for self employed borrowers. The maximum tenure of loan that you may be eligible for will be as follows:

• Value of property: HDFC will not finance the entire property value. The maximum home loan eligibility would depend upon the value of the property as shown below:

• Co-applicant: Adding a co-applicant increases your eligibility for home loan as it increases your repayment capacity. The co-borrower you add should have good income, low obligation and clean CIBIL record.
• Property documents: Your property’s legal documents should be satisfactory and be cleared by the bank’s legal team.

The housing loan eligibility calculator HDFC can be a useful tool to assess your eligibility for the loan.

• CIBIL Score: Your credit behaviour and track record from your past lenders and credit card providers gets captured in your CIBIL score. Banks consider this as a barometer to gauge your past credit behaviour and hence, CIBIL score becomes the most important factor to define your eligibility to get a home loan. When checking eligibility for home loan, HDFC will look at the complete CIBIL report, which also includes all past running loans and your payment track record on loans and credit cards. Higher credit score increases your chances that your loan application to HDFC will get approved. However, low CIBIL score will decrease your eligibility to get home loan. HDFC requires a minimum credit score of 650 to be eligible for a home loan.

There are few factors which affect your credit score -

• Late payments – If you have delayed in payments on your existing or past loans, it negatively affects your CIBIL score and reduces your chances of getting a loan from HDFC.
• High number of unsecured loans – Always keep a balance between secured and unsecured loans. More number of unsecured loans can adversely affect your credit score.
• Usage of credit limit – Credit card bills and use of credit limit shows your credit behaviour. Outstanding credit card balance close to 30% of credit card limit reflects a potential financial stress, indiscipline on your part and may adversely impact your credit score.
• Multiple loan applications – If you apply for loan in multiple banks at one time, it can affect your score negatively and reduce your CIBIL score. In case of application rejection from HDFC, improve your credit worthiness to get a good score.
