Home Loan Affordability Calculator

A Home Loan Affordability Calculator helps you know the loan amount you can afford based on your income, expenses, and existing liabilities. The affordability calculator tells you how much loan you are eligible for based on your current finances. L&T Finance offers this tool to help you plan better before applying for a Home Loan. It also helps understand the repayment structure, interest rate, and suitable loan term.

How is Home Loan Affordability Calculated?

Home Loan affordability is calculated based on your monthly income, existing EMIs, expenses, and tenure. It uses a formula to check your monthly surplus and how much loan you can repay over time.

Formula:

Loan Affordability = (Net Monthly Income - Total Obligations) × Multiplier Based on Loan Tenure

Example:

If your net income is ₹75,000 and existing EMIs are ₹10,000, your surplus is ₹65,000. With a multiplier of 60 (for 20 Years* tenure), your affordable loan amount would be around ₹39,00,000.
