I recently took a loan fr a car and they also want to know how many dependents you have and how much house rent you are paying. The final amount what they consider for sanctioning loan is a percentage of the NET amount which you may have after you have spent the amount from your salary which you MUST spend.

i think it will based on your capability to repay the loan.

i know that some banks calculation take 30% of your salary for pre-qualification. E.g if your salary is 10k, the bank will "allow" you to borrow max 3k. So if you are buying a car, the monthly instalment cannot be more than 3k. But if you have other loan, e,g personal loan with monthly instalment of say 1k, the the amount available for your car loan would reduce to 2k only.

They will also look at your credit report for the history of your payment patterns.

Interest rate would be lower for new cars. If you are buying second hand, you may want to consider personal loan as it could be cheaper than car loan (in total).But again, the prerequisites would be similar.
