It may also help you avail a personal loan on better terms and conditions like a lower rate of interest on your personal loan.

6. Income Level: Personal loans may be offered at a lower rate of interest to applicants with higher incomes as they are thought to have a better repayment capacity and therefore, are less likely to default on repayments.
