Tata Capital Home Loan Eligibility

The applicant's age at the time of borrowing a Tata Capital Home Loan is the most important eligibility criteria. The younger is the borrower, the more repayment time they have to repay the loan.

This allows the borrower to avail longer loan tenure and consequently, reduce the EMI paid on the loan. With Tata Capital Home Loans, younger borrowers can get up to 30 years to repay the loan. Whether you are a salaried or a self-employed individual, the loan tenure can be extended for maximum tenure. 

Let’s overview how does the age affects the tenure of applicants:

A Home Loan is a secured loan where the property for which you are applying for the loan is taken as security. So the value of the property along with the marketability is an important eligibility factor.

Tata Capital will only provide a portion of this property value as per the Loan to Value (LTV) ratio. The remaining will be provided by the applicant as down payment on the loan. Maximum LTV for Tata Capital Home Loans is 80% of the property's value.

It is necessary for the lender to ensure that the individual applying for the loan is reliable. To check your reliability, the CIBIL score is assessed. This score is calculated based on your credit report which includes the repayments made on your past loans and also your credit cards.

If you have been prompt in paying your dues and have also maintained a good track record with respect to Credit Card usage and other factors, your CIBIL score will increase. The higher is the CIBIL score, the better are the chances of getting an approval on your Home Loan.

You need to take care of the following factors that to improve your credit score for a required loan:

• Make sure that repayments on all existing loans and credit cards are made on time.
• Avoid taking unsecured loans. Too many unsecured loans signify credit hunger and impact the score.
• Do not use your credit card up to the maximum limit. This is a sign of some financial distress and can affect your credit score.
• Do not apply for several loans together, particular before applying a home loan.

Besides the deductions, there are several other expenses that you must include in your monthly budget. This includes expenses like EMIs and rent that you cannot forgo. As per your total expenses, your FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) is calculated by the lender. To qualify for Home Loan at Tata Housing Finance your FOIR ratio should be a minimum of 0.65.

For salaried individuals, there are several deductions on your salary such as PF, ESI, and so on. The amount that you actually take home each month after you have deducted this outgoing amount is known as the net monthly income. The higher is the net income, the better is your repayment capacity! Therefore, your net income plays an important role in assessing how much Home Loan you are actually eligible for.

Likewise the self employed and business owners need to furnish legal documents to prove the continual income to get the loan approval.

You can improve your Home Loan eligibility with a few simple steps such as:
