| The maximum loan amount would be decided by the repayment capacity of the borrower, which is determined mainly with reference to the present income. However, it should be borne in mind that besides present income, several factors like age, qualifications, spouse's income, present outgoing towards rent, future potential for earning higher income, present level of assets and liabilities of the borrowers, etc. will have a bearing on the repayment capacity of the borrower. The income of co-applicant can be added to that of the applicant to enhance the quantum of loan. |

You can avail loan either singly or jointly with other family members viz. father, mother, son and/or spouse, who have regular sources of income as co-applicants.
