How DTI is calculated

Debt-to-income ratio = total monthly debt payments ÷ gross monthly income, expressed as a percentage. If your business pays ₹4 lakh in EMIs against ₹15 lakh of monthly inflows, your DTI is 27%.

Most Indian lenders like total obligations below 40-50% of monthly income before sanctioning new credit. Below that line, a new loan is an easy yes; above it, you will face pushback, higher rates, or smaller sanctions.

What is a debt-to-income ratio calculator?

A DTI calculator adds up everything you pay toward debt each month and divides it by your monthly income. Lenders use this exact math - often called FOIR (fixed obligation to income ratio) in India - to decide how much more EMI your cash flow can absorb.

How to use this DTI calculator

  1. 1

    Enter your total monthly debt payments - every EMI, interest payment, and committed obligation.

  2. 2

    Enter your gross monthly income or business inflow.

  3. 3

    Read your DTI percentage, the lender assessment, and how much EMI headroom you have for a new loan.

Reading your DTI like a lender

Below 40% - comfortable

New credit is easy to sanction. You are borrowing from strength.

40-50% - watchful

Lenders will look harder at income stability, and may trim the sanction amount.

Above 50% - stretched

Expect rejections or expensive offers. Consolidating or refinancing existing EMIs should come first.

Income quality counts

Documented, consistent inflows (GST, banking) let lenders accept a higher DTI than undocumented income.
