Surrogate Income Programme

A lender programme that assesses repayment capacity from bank statements, GST or rent instead of ITR profit.

What it means

Many businesses report modest taxable profit while running strong cash flows. Surrogate programmes use average bank balance, credit turnover, GST sales or rental income to estimate income, enabling loans, especially loans against property, that ITR-based assessment would not support.

Rates are usually 1% to 2% higher than standard programmes, and availability varies by lender and city. Choosing the right programme is often the difference between approval and rejection for self-employed applicants.
