About this scenario

Noida and Greater Noida generally offer 10-20% lower prices than equivalent Gurugram properties, giving better affordability. Gurugram has better infrastructure and corporates but premiums of ₹1,000-2,000/sq ft over Noida. With ₹1.5L salary, a ₹90L-1 crore property is feasible in either micro-market.

Frequently asked questions

Banks typically allow your total EMI obligations (existing EMIs plus the new home loan EMI) to be at most 40-50% of your gross monthly income, known as FOIR. On a ₹1 lakh monthly salary with no existing EMIs, you can typically get a home loan EMI of around ₹40,000-45,000, which translates to a loan of roughly ₹45-55 lakh at 8.5% for 20 years.

FOIR stands for Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio. It is the share of your gross monthly income that goes towards fixed loan repayments. Most banks cap this at 40-50%. If your FOIR exceeds the cap, you will either not get the loan or need to increase your income, reduce existing EMIs, or opt for a longer tenure to lower the new EMI.

RBI guidelines mandate that banks lend a maximum of 80% of the property value for loans above ₹30 lakh. So you must arrange at least 20% of the property price as a down payment. Beyond the down payment, budget another 7-10% for stamp duty, registration, and other upfront costs, which vary by state.

The 28/36 rule is a Western guideline: spend no more than 28% of gross income on housing costs, and no more than 36% on total debt. In India, banks use FOIR instead, allowing up to 45-50% of income for all EMIs combined. The Indian market often has higher housing cost to income ratios, especially in metros.

Add a co-applicant (spouse or parent) to combine incomes. Pay off existing car or personal loans to reduce your FOIR. Opt for a longer tenure (20-30 years) to lower the EMI. Improve your CIBIL score above 750 by clearing credit card dues and paying existing EMIs on time. A better score often gets you a lower interest rate as well.
