PNB Housing Finance Home Loan Eligibility

The repayment capacity of the applicant is gauged with the net monthly income, i.e. salary or income received after deducting PF, ESI, gratuity, etc. The net income helps to assume the capacity of the applicant to pay the monthly EMI after meeting the current expenses and other obligations. For example, if the salary of an applicant is Rs 25,000 and he wishes to buy a house of Rs 40 Lakh. The maximum Home Loan amount will be Rs 26.04 Lakh to Rs 41.69 Lakh at the rate starting from 8.50%. But if the salary of the applicant is Rs 75,000 for the same property the eligible Home Loan amount will be Rs 52.09 Lakh to Rs 83.38 Lakh. 

Nature of Employment: Likewise, the nature of employment and source of income is very important to determine the capacity of the applicant to pay monthly EMI. The years of experience and job stability is viewed while reviewing the Home Loan application. The minimum income history and job stability of 2 years are a must for salaried employees to apply for the Home Loan at PNB Housing Finance; similarly, for the self-employed individuals, it is 5 years.

Age is one of the most important and basic factors that affects the Home Loan eligibility of an applicant. The minimum age required to be eligible for the Home Loan at PNB Housing Finance is 21 years. The maximum Home Loan tenure at PNB Housing Finance is 30 years. However, the applicant's age must not exceed 70 years (for salaried and self-employed) at the time of maturity of the Home Loan.

PNB does not finance the entire property value. The maximum Home Loan eligibility amount depends on the Loan to Value ratio of the property. PNB provides maximum Home Loan up to 90% LTV ratio. The borrowers have to fund the remaining on their own. If the borrowers cannot fund the remaining margin money, they can apply for LTV Loans that come at a higher rate of interest.

The CIBIL Score is determined by taking into account the applicant's past payment history for previous Loans and Credit Cards. It is the most important factor that determines the Home Loan eligibility of an applicant. Lower the CIBIL score, lower are the chances of an applicant to get the Home Loan from PNB Housing Finance. The CIBIL Report will also have information of all your past and current loans. The PNB HFL will study the CIBIL report of the applicant thoroughly before processing the Home Loan application further. The minimum CIBIL Score of 650 and above is a must to be eligible for the Home Loan at PNB Housing Finance.

Below mentioned are some of the factors that can affect Credit Score of a Home Loan applicant.

• Late payments-Any delayed payments of the existing and past loan can lower the CIBIL score; thus, reducing the chances of getting Home Loan from PNB.
• High number of Unsecured Loans- Having more Unsecured Loans can also decrease the CIBIL score. It is a must to maintain a balance of Secured and Unsecured loans.

The FOIR is Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio. FOIR is used to determine Home Loan Eligibility. For the purpose, PNB Housing Finance will take into consideration all of your current obligations such as EMIs, rent etc to estimate your Home Loan eligibility. This estimation plays an important role in determining the repayment capacity of the applicant. The minimum FOIR of 0.65% is a must to get approval for the Home Loan at PNB Housing Finance.
