How Your CIBIL Score Impacts Your Loan Eligibility (And How to Improve It)

Vizzve Admin

Your CIBIL score is a three-digit number ranging from 300 to 900, issued by TransUnion CIBIL, India's leading credit bureau. It reflects your creditworthiness based on your financial history.

Lenders in India—banks, NBFCs, and digital loan platforms—use this score to assess:

Whether you qualify for a loan

How much you can borrow

What interest rate you'll get

CIBIL Score Brackets & Loan Eligibility

💡 Tip: Vizzve Finance matches you with credit-score-friendly lenders even if your score is low or NA (no history).

🔍 How CIBIL Score Affects Your Loan Journey

Loan Approval Chances
A low score often means rejection. A high score gives you access to premium offers and higher limits.

Interest Rates
Higher the score, lower the rate. Borrowers with 750+ scores get the best deals.

Loan Amount & Tenure
A good score allows for higher loan amounts and longer, flexible tenures.

Pre-Approval Eligibility
With a great score, you may get instant pre-approved loans through Vizzve.

🔧 7 Smart Ways to Improve Your CIBIL Score

1. 🧾 Pay EMIs & Credit Card Bills on Time

Set reminders or auto-pay to never miss a due date.

2. 🧮 Maintain a Low Credit Utilization Ratio

Use less than 30% of your credit limit regularly.

3. 📜 Limit New Credit Inquiries

Too many applications can lower your score. Be selective.

4. 💳 Keep Old Accounts Active

Long credit history = stronger credit profile.

5. 📈 Check Your CIBIL Report Regularly

Dispute errors that could wrongly hurt your score.

6. 💰 Avoid Loan Settlements or Defaults

Settling a loan for less than owed stays on your report for 7 years.

7. 🤝 Diversify Credit Types

Use a mix of secured (like home loans) and unsecured credit (like credit cards).

🙋‍♀️ FAQs

Q1: What is the minimum CIBIL score needed for a personal loan?
Generally, 700+ is ideal. But Vizzve can help you find options with 650 or lower scores too.

Q2: Can I get a loan with no credit history?
Yes. Vizzve works with lenders offering "new-to-credit" loans for first-time borrowers.

Q3: How long does it take to improve a low CIBIL score?
With disciplined payments and low credit usage, you can see improvement in 3–6 months.

Q4: Does checking my CIBIL score reduce it?
Not when you check it yourself or via Vizzve. Only hard inquiries by lenders affect your score.

Q5: Is CIBIL the only score lenders use?
No. There are others (Experian, Equifax), but CIBIL is the most widely used in India.
