Smart Tips to Boost Approval Chances

Self-employed individuals may face a lot of challenges in taking out any kind of loan. As personal loans are unsecured, procuring one with a fluctuating income might be even harder. Lenders may assume that your income is ‘variable’ or ‘unpredictable’. 

But a self-employed professional can get a personal loan. Here are some tips that can increase your chances of approval -

Make sure all your income is routed through your bank account. Avoid cheque bounces and maintain a consistent average monthly balance. This will help you build proof of good financial behaviour.

You will need to furnish 2 or 3 years of ITRs, so regularly file them. That helps show your income trends.

Build and maintain a high credit score and history. Having a score higher than 700 will make you unstoppable in procuring loans. A longer credit history also helps your creditworthiness. 

Keep your CUR under 30%. Using up more of your credit shows you as credit-hungry.

Pay your EMIs and credit card bills on time every month. In the months that you can’t pay the full amount, at least pay the minimum due amount by the due date.

Show yourself as a professional with experience or someone who has been freelancing for a long time. That will help build trust in you as a professional. 

Apply with a co-applicant who has a good credit history. That will help boost your profile.
