How Much Personal Loan Can I Get on My Salary?

There are a number of factors that determine how much loan amount you will be eligible for against your salary structure. A personal loan is among the most preferred credit options that you can obtain in times of financial crisis. 

The personal loan amount depends on the lender and its policies. For instance, lenders on Bajaj Markets offer personal loans ranging from ₹500 to ₹55 Lakhs. This type of financing is unsecured, and lenders usually do not ask you to submit any collateral to secure the loan. 

This is another reason why the interest rates on these loans are substantially higher than those on secured loans. Notably, your salary is one of the crucial factors that will determine the personal loan amount that you can borrow.

Methods to Calculate Personal Loan Amount

When assessing your eligibility for a personal loan, financial institutions will typically use the multiplier technique, the fixed obligation income ratio, or a combination of these two methods. Here is a detailed discussion of each of the methods. 

  • Multiplier Method 

  • To determine your eligibility for a personal loan, banks and other financial organisations frequently employ this technique. Under this technique, lenders calculate the eligibility of personal loans based on a predetermined multiple of the income. 

    The approximate range of this multiple is between 10 to 24 times your net monthly salary. The multiplier increases the likelihood of receiving a larger loan at a lower interest rate if you work at a reputable company with a higher salary. 

    As an illustration, consider the question, "How much personal loan can I get on a ₹30,000 salary?" To calculate this, you can multiply your monthly earnings by 24 to determine the maximum sum you would be eligible for. In this instance, it would be around ₹7.20 Lakhs. 

    The following table shows estimated maximum loan amounts for different monthly income figures using a multiplier of 24 as per the multiplier method:

The examples given above all presume that you do not currently have any monthly responsibilities. Please be aware that these are merely examples provided for your comprehension. In order to know the actual loan amount, contact your lending institution and ask for the same.

  • Fixed Obligation Income Ratio

The highest amount of instalments you can make using your net income after calculating your monthly expenses like rent and EMIs is the basis for this method's calculation. Lenders often count between 50- 75% of net revenue as instalments. 

Banks either extend the loan's term or lower the loan amount if your expenses are greater than this proportion. Let us take a look at a personal loan if you are making ₹30,000. 

You can secure a personal loan of up to ₹3.65 Lakhs if you have monthly expenses of around ₹8,000. However, should your monthly expenses be lower, around ₹5,000, you could be eligible for a personal loan reaching ₹4.94 Lakhs. 

This is provided you possess a strong credit score and select a 60-month repayment tenure. Here are some examples:

Monthly Expenses of ₹5,000

Monthly Expenses of ₹7,000

Monthly Expenses of ₹9,000

₹11.17 Lakhs

₹10.31 Lakhs

₹70,000

₹14.39 Lakhs

₹13.53 Lakhs

₹12.67 Lakhs

Use a personal loan eligibility calculator for precise results. Please be aware, however, that the calculator displays the results based on several variables provided by the user. Your actual loan eligibility is the result of many different things. 

But if you meet these requirements, using the personal loan eligibility calculator can give you a decent idea of what to expect when you apply. You can also calculate the EMI for the amount you wish to take as a personal loan through an online EMI calculator.
