What is a CIBIL score?
CIBIL (Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited), currently known as TransUnion CIBIL, is a credit rating firm that collects, manages, and generates credit ratings for consumers worldwide. TransUnion CIBIL was founded in 2000 and has 2,400 members, including financial institutions, NBFCs, banks, and home financing businesses. TransUnion CIBIL is a credit agency that manages the credit histories of over 550 million customers and organizations.
Your CIBIL Score is a number between 300—850 that depicts your financial health. The Better the score, the great a borrower looks to the possible loan lender. Not only a high credit score will assist you in securing a loan, but it’ll also ease the doors to avail of a loan at rock bottom interest rates. Poor credit might make it harder for you to get a home loan, car loan, or credit card. It also can cause you to have higher interest rates, ultimately making your loan expensive to repay.
