FAQs

What is a home buy readiness calculator?

It estimates whether your income, debts, savings, and target property price line up for a home purchase in India — including a fitness score, DTI band, closing-cost estimate, and time-to-ready.

How is the Financial Fitness Score calculated?

The score (0–100) weighs down-payment progress, debt-to-income safety, closing-cost buffer, emergency reserve after purchase cash, and lifestyle spending room. It is a planning score, not a bank approval.

What do Safe, Stretch, and Risk mean?

They are DTI planning bands: Safe under 40%, Stretch 40–50%, Risk above 50% for existing debts plus projected home EMI versus take-home pay. Lender FOIR rules may differ.

Are stamp duty estimates exact?

No. Stamp duty and registration vary by state, city, and buyer category. The wizard uses illustrative metro / tier-2 / tier-3 averages — confirm with a local advisor or your sale agreement.

Is my data stored?

No. The wizard runs entirely in your browser. WebKarya Finance does not require an account or store your answers on a server for this tool.
