“Room” is the extra monthly EMI you could take on before reaching that limit.

Many lenders count about 5% of your credit card outstanding as a monthly obligation. Some use the minimum amount due instead. FOIR limits vary by bank, loan type and income level, so treat this as a guide.

What is FOIR and why do banks check it?

FOIR (Fixed Obligation to Income Ratio) is the share of your take-home pay already going to EMIs and other fixed debt payments. Even with a 750+ CIBIL score, a bank may reduce or reject your loan if FOIR is too high. Most lenders want it between 40% and 55%. Some allow up to 60–65% for high earners.

FOIR = (all monthly EMIs + card obligations) ÷ net monthly income × 100

Frequently asked questions

What is a good FOIR for a loan?

Most banks accept 40–55% FOIR. Some allow 60–65% for high incomes or home loans. Lower is always better.

Can a loan be rejected even with a good CIBIL score?

Yes. If your FOIR is too high, banks may cut the loan amount or reject it even with a 750+ score.

How can I reduce my FOIR?

Close small loans, pay down credit card balances, take a longer tenure for the new loan or add a co-applicant's income.
