Estimate My Eligibility

Choose the income proof route that fits you best. Different routes assess the same business very differently — try more than one if you're not sure which applies.

This is a directional first-pass estimate using standard eligibility-multiplier logic — not a lender's actual underwriting output. Real eligibility depends on the specific lender's income-assessment policy, CIBIL score, existing obligations and property, and can vary 30-50% between lenders for the same file. Not a loan offer or guarantee of approval.

Why the Same Business Gets Different Numbers at Different Lenders

ITR / Profit-based2-3 yr average net profit + depreciation add-backEstablished businesses, healthy declared profitStandard rates, full LTV, but limited by conservative declared profit
GST turnoverGST returns + a margin assumption on turnoverTraders & service businesses with high turnover, modest declared profitCan give a higher amount than ITR, but only where GST filing is clean and current

Mintra Tip

Run the estimate on more than one route if you have the documents for it — many self-employed borrowers qualify for meaningfully more through GST or banking-surrogate assessment than their ITR alone would suggest, especially if declared profit is conservative for tax reasons. We compare all applicable routes across 30+ lenders and put forward the ones that maximise your eligible amount without pushing you into an unnecessary rate premium.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is home loan eligibility calculated for self-employed borrowers?
Lenders assess self-employed income through one of a few routes: ITR-based (net profit plus depreciation add-back, averaged over 2-3 years), GST-turnover based (a margin assumption applied to declared turnover), or banking-surrogate (average bank credits/balance). Each route can produce a materially different eligible amount for the same business.
Can GST turnover give a higher loan eligibility than ITR?
Often yes, especially for traders and service businesses that declare a conservative profit margin on ITR relative to their actual turnover. A GST-surrogate program applies its own margin assumption to turnover, which can produce a higher assessed income than the ITR route for the same business.
Does a banking-surrogate loan cost more?
Typically yes. Banking-surrogate and other low-doc programs usually carry a 0.25%-1% rate premium and a somewhat lower eligible amount than a clean ITR-based file at the same lender, reflecting the lender's higher assessed risk on thinner documentation.
Which lenders actually offer no-ITR or low-doc programs?
A set of HFCs and NBFCs run dedicated low-doc programs — see our self-employed & no-ITR lender guide for named lenders and which route each one fits.
