High Income Doesn't Guarantee Big Loan: Banks Prioritize Spending Habits
- •Banks scrutinize net cash flow and account behavior, not just high turnover, for loan eligibility.
- •For self-employed, bank statements over 6-12 months are more crucial than profit-loss statements.
- •High income with equally high expenses is seen as a risk; disciplined saving strengthens eligibility.
- •Credit score, payment history, and credit utilization ratio are vital for loan approval.
- •Financial discipline, timely payments, and balanced spending are key to winning bank's trust.
Why It Matters: Financial discipline and responsible spending habits are more critical for loan approval than just high income.
