What is CIBIL score?

CIBIL score is a bank's assessment of a client's trustworthiness based on information from their credit history. The higher the score, the more favourable the bank is to the client. It is a 3-digit number ranging between 300 and 900. Ideally, 720 or above score considered as a good CIBIL score. It tells your financial health and your previous records of loans.

CRIF vs. CIBIL

Banks and financial organisations widely use CRIF and CIBIL.[9] Both of them are more or less the same. Here's a comparative analysis of CRIF and CIBIL

CRIF Credit Scores:

300–500 Very low
500-650 Low
650–750 Great
750-900 Excellent

CIBIL Credit Scores:

<600 Low
600-649 Difficult
650-699 Possible
700-749 Good
750-900 Excellent

Higher CIBIL scores make your loan journey easy and smooth. They also help you secure lower interest rates on your unsecured loans. Your CIBIL score is affected by your loan history. It is influenced by various factors such as past settlements of loans or credit cards, delayed payments or overdue amounts, and unpaid loans. If your CIBIL score is low, it becomes significantly harder to obtain any type of loan. However, CIBIL scores can be improved,[10] though this process usually takes about 4–8 months. To achieve a good CIBIL score, it is crucial to pay your EMIs and credit card bills on time.[11]
