ELIGIBILITY FOR HOME LOANS
The applicant must be at least 21 years of age with a regular source of income from employment or self-employment to be eligible for a home loan. The loan must terminate before or when the applicant turns 65 years of age.ELIGIBILITY FOR COMMERCIAL LOANS
The applicant must be at least 21 years of age with a regular source of income from employment or self-employment to be eligible for a commercial loan. The loan must terminate before or when the applicant turns 65 years of age. The loan can be for the purchase/construction/extension of a non-residential property. A loan for renovation will only be given at the time when the property has been acquired. Professionally qualified and self-employed individuals can apply but a minimum of 3-year work experience is a necessary.ASPECTS OF LOAN AMOUNT
The loan amount depends on a number of factors such as age, income, number of dependents, qualifications, assets and liabilities, income stability, business profits, etc. However, there are other ways to increase loan eligibility and amount. For e.g. if a spouse or fiancée is earning, then applying together as co-applicants can increase chances of a larger loan amount. In such cases, proof of marriage must be submitted. On the contrary, if there are any co-owners they must necessarily be co-applicants. Providing additional security like bonds, fixed deposits and LIC policies may also help to enhance the eligibility. Nonetheless, the most important factor in sanctioning loans is repayment ability. The total cost includes registration charges, transfer charges and stamp duties.MANDATORY HOME LOAN DOCUMENTS

Once the above has been submitted and verified, the registration of the conveyance deed and investment of the applicant's own contribution and the loan amount will be disbursed by the bank. The disbursement will be in favor of the builder.Documents required for disbursement
- Loan agreements
- Disbursement requests
- Post-dated cheques
- Personal guarantor's documents
STAMP DUTY
A stamp duty is a kind of tax that is levied on the transactions concluded by way of documentation or instruments. The tax was sealed by the Bombay Stamp Act (1958).
As per the regulations of this act, the buyer must pay a 5% stamp duty on the cost of the flat. This payment is a pre-requisite for the full ownership of property and the consequences for evasion of stamp duty can even lead to imprisonment. For residential spaces that cost above Rs. 500,000, the purchaser must pay an excess stamp duty of
Rs. 7650 (plus 5%). For commercial spaces, the stamp duty is simply 5%. However, these rates are subject to change. Once the buyer decides to purchase a residential property, the stamp duty is calculated according to the agreement value or the market value, whichever is higher. The investor will then need to obtain a pay-order, which must be addressed in favour of 'Superintendent of Stamps, Mumbai'. After the submission of the pay-order, the agreement is completed and signed by all parties.

After the submission of the pay-order, the agreement is completed and signed by all parties.
REGISTRATION
Registration involves the submission of transaction documents (copies) to the required governmental officer for preservation. Once the stamp duty has been paid on a document, it has to be registered under the Indian Registration Act (1908) with the 'Sub-Registrar of Assurances' of the locality of the property. Unless this procedure is completed, the investor does not have full ownership of the property. The original copy as well as two photocopies of the document must be submitted to the 'Sub-Registrar of Assurances'. The procedure also includes a registration fee for properties costing more than Rs. 30,000 which is fixed at 1% of the market value or the agreement value, whichever is higher. Once again the value is subject to change. The procedure can only be completed under the presence of two eye-witnesses. When a receipt with a distinct serial number is issued, the procedure is complete.LEGAL
Signing a title report (received from the solicitor of the property) with any fine print and specific government reservations is unadvisable. Accept clearance reports that are lucid and specific. For instance, if you are interested in buying property that has been built over reclaimed land, make sure that building has been given clearance by the government. Precautionary measures will prevent you from getting embroiled in any future disputes. They will also help ensure that your home loans aren't scrutinized.
When buying property from a developer, you are entitled to question the company for their permissions and approvals for the property in question. A builder must have a
ULC order (though not always), IOD and CC for the project and the MCGM approved plans in order to begin construction.
ULC order (though not always), IOD and CC for the project and the MCGM approved plans in order to begin construction.
TAX BENEFITS
Tax authorities provide certain benefits and exemptions from tax payments when buying a property with loans from specific financial institutions.
Section 24 of the Income Tax Act states that an investor is allowed to deduct an amount equivalent to the total interest payable on the housing loan from his/her taxable income within the same financial year. If an investor were to take a loan, he/she would receive a deduction of up to Rs. 1.5 lakhs on the interest rate paid. The only concern is that the property would have to be bought or constructed within 3 years from the end of the financial year in which the loan was taken and would have to be self-occupied.
According to Section 80C of the Income Tax Act: A deduction u/s 80C (2) (xviii) is available on repayment of the principal during a financial year of up to Rs. 1,00,000, this aforesaid limit is within the overall limit of Rs. 1,00,000, specified in section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Stamp duty, registration fee or other such expenses paid for the purpose of transfer of such house property to the assesse is also considered under this amount. This deduction is taken from the Gross Total Income.
NRI CENTRE
A Non-Residential Indian (NRI) is a citizen of India who lives abroad for employment, business or vocation purposes for an uncertain amount of time.
NRIs do not require the permission of the Reserve Bank of India in order to purchase immovable property and can obtain loans for the purchase of such property from certain financial institutions. However, the repayment of the loan must be made within 15 years of taking the loan. Furthermore, NRIs must have stayed in India for a period of 182 days or more within an assessment year or they should have stayed in India for at least a total of one year or more.
NRI investors have different conditions for purchase than residents. He/she must be at least 21 years of age with a minimum of USD 2000 monthly income. An NRI is not allowed to make Equal Monthly Installments (EMI) through any source other than his/her NRE/NRO account. The eligibility of loan will be determined on a number of factors such as income stability, number of dependents, repayment capacity, cost of property etc. and can range from Rs. 5 lakhs to Rs. 1 crore. As in the case of a resident, an NRI can enhance his home loan eligibility by applying with a co-applicant who has a separate source of income.
An applicant will be eligible for a maximum of 85% of the cost of the property or the cost of construction as applicable and 75% of the cost of land in case of purchase of land, based on the repayment capacity of the borrower. Furthermore, the interest rates on home loans for NRIs are higher than those offered to residents. The amount differs by 0.25% to 0.50%. Some Housing Finance Companies also having an internally earmarked 'negative criterion' for NRI home loans. As such, the NRIs who hail from locations that are marked as being 'negative' in the books of HFCs, find it difficult to get a home loan.
In connection with the above, it should be noted that the benefit of indexation would not be available. However, NRIs could explore the option of claiming certain specified exemptions (subject to conditions) in respect of capital gains arising from sale of property.

INCOME-TAX PROCEDURE
- Investment in a property in India should not give rise to any income-tax implications for an NRI.
- Income from letting out the property would be taxable under the head 'Income from House Property'. Typically, the actual rent received being higher than deemed values, would be taxable in India, at regular slab rates (current maximum slab rate is 30.9%). Deductions such as (a) standard deduction of 30% of the annual value (i.e., rent received/receivable); (b) certain interest costs in respect of the property could be claimed by an NRI. Where the property is not let out, mitigating tax levy on deemed rental values could be explored having regard to facts.
