A number of factors are taken into account when assessing your repayment capacity. Your income, age, number of dependants, qualifications, assets and liabilities, stability/ continuity of your employment / business are some of them.

However, there are ways by which you can enhance your eligibility.

If your spouse is earning, put him/her as a co-applicant. The additional income shall be included to enhance your loan amount. Incidentally, if there are any co-owners they must necessarily be co-applicants.

Providing additional security like bonds, fixed deposits and LIC policies may also help to enhance eligibility
