Tata Contractor Mortgages UK

UK Mortgages for Tata Contractors Paid in Indian Rupees

If you’re a Tata contractor living in the UK, getting a mortgage might feel confusing, especially when you’re:

  • Paid in Indian Rupees (INR)
  • Working on a Tier 2 visa (Skilled Worker)
  • Earning through Tata Consultancy Services or other Tata Group companies
  • Without a traditional UK payslip
  • Clients with poor credit or non-standard income
At Mortgage Knight, we specialise in helping Tata professionals like you secure a UK mortgage — whether you’re new to the UK, on a temporary contract, or getting paid in INR from abroad.

We work with major UK lenders like Halifax, HSBC, Santander and NatWest, who are open to foreign-paid contractors with strong income and documentation.

Who is This for?

  • Contractors employed by Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) or other Tata companies
  • Paid in Indian Rupees (INR) or via a foreign currency payroll
  • Living and working in the UK on a Skilled Worker (Tier 2) visa
  • Working in IT, engineering, consulting or tech
  • Have a UK bank account and address history (even if recent)

Did You Know?

  • Halifax is one of the few UK lenders that understands the structure of Tata contracts
  • You can use your day rate to boost your borrowing power
  • Lenders apply a currency haircut to INR earnings, but we know how to position your income fairly
  • You don’t need 2 years of UK payslips to get approved — some lenders accept day-one contractors
What We Help With?
  • Mortgage applications for Indian contractors paid abroad or in INR
  • Presenting your income using contract rates or INR payslips
  • Securing approval with lenders who understand foreign-paid Tier 2 visa holders
  • Supporting first-time buyers, home movers, and remortgages
  • Handling documentation, affordability checks, and currency conversion policies
What Documents Will You Need?
  • Current employment contract with Tata
  • Day rate confirmation or INR payslips
  • 3–6 months’ UK bank statements
  • Proof of UK address and visa
  • Deposit proof and valid ID
We help you structure these correctly so the lender understands your profile, with zero guesswork.
