Understanding Your Credit Report and CIBIL Score – A Vizzve Finance Guide

Vizzve Admin

In today’s credit-driven world, your CIBIL score and credit report are more important than ever. Whether you're applying for a loan, a credit card, or even renting a home, your credit history speaks for you. At Vizzve Finance, we simplify credit insights so you can borrow smart, manage better, and build a strong financial profile.

What Is a Credit Report?

A credit report is a detailed summary of your borrowing history, compiled by credit bureaus like TransUnion CIBIL, Experian, and Equifax.

It includes:

Loan and credit card accounts

Repayment history

Credit utilization

Defaults or delinquencies

Credit inquiries (when you apply for loans or cards)

What Is a CIBIL Score?

Your CIBIL score is a three-digit number ranging from 300 to 900. It reflects your creditworthiness, i.e., how likely you are to repay a loan responsibly.

750 and above: Excellent (High loan approval chances)

700–749: Good

650–699: Fair (May need better terms)

600–649: Poor (Higher interest likely)

Below 600: Bad (Loan rejections likely)

FAQs

Q1. Is CIBIL score the only credit score used in India?
No. Other credit bureaus like Experian, Equifax, and CRIF High Mark also provide scores. CIBIL is the most widely used.

Q2. Will checking my credit score reduce it?
No. A soft check (done by you) doesn’t impact your score. Only hard inquiries (by lenders) do.

Q3. How long does it take to improve a low CIBIL score?
With regular payments and responsible use, it can take 6–12 months to see significant improvement.

Q4. Can I get a loan with a low CIBIL score?
Yes, but your interest rates may be higher. Vizzve Finance helps match borrowers to suitable lenders even with low scores.
