Debt-to-income ratio

Breakdown

This is an estimate only, a guide to how much of your income goes on debt — not lending advice.

How it works

Total monthly debts = rent + loan + credit card + other
DTI = total monthly debts ÷ gross monthly income × 100

Worked example: ₹30,000 + ₹10,000 + ₹5,000 + ₹0 = ₹45,000 of monthly debts on ₹1,00,000 of income, so DTI = ₹45,000 ÷ ₹1,00,000 × 100 = 45%, in the high band. With debts of ₹20,000 on the same income, DTI = 20%, in the low band.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a monthly debt?

Rent or mortgage, loan payments, credit card payments and any other fixed monthly debt. Everyday spending on food or transport is not a debt, so leave it out.

What is a good debt-to-income ratio?

As a rough guide, under 36% is low, 36–43% is moderate and over 43% is high. Lenders each use their own cut-offs, so treat these bands as a guide only.

Should I use gross or take-home income?

Gross income, before tax. That is the figure lenders usually ask for, and it keeps the ratio comparable.
