Personal Loan

24 Official6 Market-reported3 Inferred

State Bank of India

Public sector bank
Official

Salary-package product: only for applicants whose salary is credited to an SBI account - mainly central/state government, PSU, defence and select corporate payrolls. Private-sector employees without an SBI salary account are not eligible. EMI/NMI is the explicit published gate: 50% on the standard scheme, up to 65% on Real-Time Xpress Credit which also caps at 30x NMI or Rs 50 lakh, whichever is lower. Government and defence salary package holders get the widest limits and the lowest income floor.

Bank of Baroda

Public sector bank
Market-reported

Published CIBIL preference is 701+. Maximum age is retirement age or 60, whichever is lower, extending to 75 for pensioners. Employees of proprietorships, private limited companies, partnerships and trusts qualify with 1 year of continuous service; government, PSU, MNC and educational institution employees on the same 1-year basis. Co-applicants are generally not permitted.

Punjab National Bank

Public sector bank
Inferred

LARGELY INFERRED. PNB does not publish a single consolidated eligibility matrix. The structure modelled here follows the published shape of comparable PSU schemes: employer categories A/B/C, a total deduction ceiling of 50-65% of gross salary depending on category, a cap of roughly 20-24x gross monthly income, and a mandatory salary-credit or employer-undertaking arrangement. Bank of Maharashtra's published personal loan scheme is the closest public analogue and was used as the template.

IndusInd Bank

Private bank
Inferred

LARGELY INFERRED. IndusInd does not publish a detailed eligibility matrix comparable to HDFC or ICICI. Values here sit at the private-bank median, which is the defensible default when a lender is silent.

No public source page - modelled from peer lender policy and standard underwriting practice.

Tata Capital

NBFC
Market-reported

Rs 15,000 minimum monthly income with 1 year total experience and 6 months in the current job. Published credit score expectation of 725 is higher than Bajaj's, so this is not the lender to fall back on when the score is the problem, only when the income floor is.

Bajaj Finserv (Bajaj Finance)

NBFC
Official

Publishes 685 as the paperless-approval score and 650 as the floor. Age window runs to 80 at loan maturity, by far the widest here. Income floor is Rs 25,001 nationally but rises to roughly Rs 35,000 in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Ghaziabad, Noida, Thane and Coimbatore. Tenure to 108 months is the longest unsecured tenure in this set.

Aditya Birla Capital

NBFC
Market-reported

Aditya Birla Capital's own eligibility page states there is no minimum eligible salary, only that income must be steady, and sets the age band at 21-60. Market-reported floors run Rs 25,000-35,000 depending on city, with a 750 credit score expectation. Where a lender declines to publish a number, LoanFit models the market-reported number and flags it.

Union Bank of India

Public sector bank
Official

Union Personal (salaried, non-government): minimum gross salary Rs 15,000/month (Rs 20,000 in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad and Pune), age 18 to one year before retirement, up to 60 months, Rs 5 lakh for a first-time borrower rising to Rs 15 lakh with a 2-year repayment record (Rs 15 lakh outright under the tie-up scheme). Non-salaried scheme: Rs 5 lakh new / Rs 15 lakh existing, repayment up to age 75. The professional scheme (CA, CS, doctors, engineers, Rs 12 lakh+ income) goes to Rs 20 lakh; the 700 CIBIL floor is published on that scheme. Self-employed income floor (Rs 1.8 lakh p.a.) is not published - a nominal figure so the engine has something to size against. Interest rate is not on the product page; the engine's PSU rate card is used.

Tata Capital

Tata Capital publishes the most accessible bar in this set: age 21-65, CIBIL 700+, minimum annual turnover in the Rs 10-40 lakh range depending on lender and ticket, and 1-3 years of business vintage with a record of profitability. It also states a sub-700 score can still work if vintage and turnover are strong or a guarantor is added.

Bajaj Finserv (Bajaj Finance)

NBFC

States a 3-year vintage requirement with a preferred CIBIL of 650+, and indicative pricing of 14-23% p.a. Explicitly says early-stage businesses under 3 years generally do not qualify for competitive unsecured pricing and should look at startup or GST-based products.

IND DIGI MSME: brown-field units with at least 12 months' vintage, active GSTIN, ITR and 12 months' bank statements mandatory, promoter CIBIL 730+ (CMR 1-6 for the entity), positive net worth; limits above Rs 10 lakh up to Rs 5 crore (Rs 20 lakh where ITR is filed under presumptive taxation), 20% margin on stock and book debts, CGTMSE cover or 100% collateral. Assessed by the bank's digital business-rule engine. The Rs 10 lakh turnover figure is a floor implied by the Rs 10 lakh minimum ticket, not a published number.

The normal / gross-margin programmes want Rs 2 crore turnover; the surrogate programme accepts 2 years' ITR instead - the Rs 10 lakh turnover gate here is a floor for the surrogate route, not the Rs 2 crore programme bar.

How to read this page

Each lender criterion carries one of three labels. Official means it's stated on the lender's own website. Market-reported means it's consistent across major aggregators but not confirmed on the lender's own page. Inferred means no one publishes it - we've modelled it from comparable lenders' published policy, RBI norms and standard underwriting practice, and we say so every time it's shown. We would rather show you an honest estimate, clearly labelled, than a confident-looking number we can't back up.

Disclaimer

LoanFit produces an indicative pre-underwriting assessment. It is not a loan offer, not a sanction, and does not run a credit bureau enquiry. Every lender's final decision depends on internal scorecards, document verification and field investigation that are not public.
