Documents

What you will need to arrange

A typical starting checklist. Your advisor confirms the exact list for your lender and state.

For salaried applicants

Keep these ready in clear scans — most lenders ask for the last three months to three years.

  • PAN card and Aadhaar
  • Address proof (utility bill, rental agreement)
  • Latest 6 months’ salary slips
  • 12 months’ bank statement (salary account)
  • Form 16 for the last 2 years
  • Employment or offer letter
  • Existing loan statements, if any
  • Passport-size photograph

Requirements vary by lender, employment type and state. Always confirm the final list in writing.

FAQs

Questions borrowers ask us most

Practical answers about eligibility, rates, costs and paperwork in India.

Lenders typically allow total EMIs of up to about 50–60% of your net monthly income, depending on the lender and your profile. Existing EMIs, credit card dues and other obligations are deducted from that limit. Add a co-applicant’s income and the eligible amount usually rises — which is why our eligibility calculator is only a starting point, not an answer.

Most lenders prefer a score of 750 or above. A lower score does not automatically disqualify you, but it can affect the rate offered or lead to additional conditions. Check your report for errors before applying — a wrongly reported closed loan can cost you real money over a 20-year tenure.

Yes, in most cases a spouse, parent or adult child can be added even without independent income. They will not add to your repayment capacity, but they do become a co-owner and a co-borrower, which some lenders prefer. Note that a co-borrower is equally liable for the loan.

A fixed rate gives certainty but usually starts higher and may reset after a fixed period. A floating rate moves with the lender’s benchmark — it can fall as well as rise, and it usually allows cheaper prepayment. For a 20-year horizon, most borrowers choose floating and budget for some movement. The right answer depends on how much certainty you need.

In the early years, most of your EMI goes towards interest and only a small part reduces the principal. The split gradually reverses over the tenure. Use the split chart in the EMI calculator above to see this ratio for your amount, rate and tenure — it is often the single most useful number for a first-time borrower.

Floating-rate home loans taken by individuals generally do not carry prepayment penalties, and part-prepayment can shorten your tenure or reduce your EMI. Fixed-rate loans may have a charge, so read the schedule. Always ask for the revised amortisation in writing after a prepayment.

Plan for stamp duty and registration (state-dependent), processing fee, legal and technical valuation charges, property insurance, and the lender’s documentation charges. On a purchase you should also keep a buffer for interiors and any society dues. These one-time costs are separate from the EMI and are not included in this calculator.

Yes. A balance transfer moves your outstanding loan to another lender, usually for a lower rate. It only makes sense if the interest saved over the remaining tenure comfortably exceeds the new lender’s processing, legal and valuation charges. We run that break-even calculation with you before recommending anything.
