Frequently asked questions

What is FOIR?

FOIR (fixed obligations to income ratio) is the share of your monthly income that goes to EMIs and other fixed obligations. Lenders use it as one input when deciding how much to lend. The 50% default here is illustrative; lenders set their own limits.

Is this my loan eligibility?

No. This is an educational estimate of what fits your budget. Lenders also look at your credit history, employer, job stability and other factors.

Is my salary information stored?

No. Everything is calculated in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or anyone else.
