How much home can you afford?

Banks decide your home loan by capping your total EMIs at a share of your income — the FOIR, usually 40–55%. This tool applies that rule to your income and existing EMIs, works out the loan you'd qualify for, and adds your down payment to show the property price within reach.

How affordability is worked out

Lenders don't look at your income alone — they look at how much of it is already committed. The key number is the FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio): the share of your net monthly income that can go toward all EMIs combined, usually 40–55% depending on the bank and your income level.

Affordable EMI = (FOIR × net income) − existing EMIs.  The eligible loan is the principal that EMI supports at your rate and tenure, and the affordable property price = eligible loan + your down payment.

So two levers raise your budget the most: clearing existing EMIs (which frees up FOIR room) and increasing your down payment. Once you know your number, size the loan with the EMI calculator and pressure-test the decision with rent vs buy.

Frequently asked questions

How much home loan can I get on my salary?
Roughly, your maximum EMI is the FOIR percentage of your net income minus current EMIs, and the loan is whatever that EMI can fund at the going rate and tenure. Higher income and longer tenure both raise the eligible loan.
What FOIR should I use?
Many banks allow up to 50% for mid incomes and a bit more for high earners. The slider lets you test a conservative (40%) or aggressive (55–60%) limit to see the range.
Does a bigger down payment really help?
Yes — every rupee of down payment adds directly to the property price you can afford, on top of your eligible loan, and also lowers your EMI and total interest.
