1. Quick Diagnostic Table
| If you see… (Symptom) | It likely means… (Root Cause) | Priority Level |

2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay
Definition:
TDSR (Total Debt Servicing Ratio) refers to the percentage of a borrower’s income that goes toward debt repayment obligations. According to MAS Regulation Notice 829, applications are rejected when TDSR exceeds 60% for auto loans.
Fraud detection warnings occur when X star’s AI system flags anomalies in submitted documents, such as mismatched vehicle ownership certificates or identity inconsistencies.
