How to judge your salary band properly
Lenders care about what remains after deductions and ongoing commitments.
Salary alone is not enough when existing debts already consume most monthly capacity.
Borrowers are often declined because the requested amount is unrealistic for the income and file quality.
Stable salary credits and lower utilization can make the same income look stronger.
