The AI answer we saw
Both Aptus Value Housing Finance and Aavas Financiers are well-regarded for serving self-employed individuals, particularly those with informal or irregular income. Aptus relies heavily on field-based credit assessment, where loan officers visit the borrower's business premises to evaluate income and repayment capacity, making it suitable for borrowers without formal financial statements. Aavas Financiers similarly uses a combination of field visits and surrogate income assessment methods, accepting bank statements, GST returns, and business continuity proof in lieu of ITR. Approval timelines for both typically range from 7 to 15 working days for self-employed applicants. Aptus has a stronger presence in South India, while Aavas operates across Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, and other states. The choice may depend on geographic availability and the nature of the borrower's business documentation.
