- How To Read and interpret Cibil Credit Report
How To Interpret Cibil Report?
So, you have got your CIBIL score and report. Now, what do you make of it?
An extremely important aspect considered by lenders before approving your loan application is your CIBIL score. Additionally, the CIBIL score provides necessary insights into your credit history through past patterns of credit usage and loan settlement behaviour.
What is a good CIBIL score for Credit Card you ask?
Any score above 750 is a good credit score. Generally, banks and Credit Card companies will process your Loan or Credit Card application without any hassle. But a good CIBIL score does not mean that lenders will just part with funds the moment you apply. They will look at your financial portfolio and sources of income to determine your ability to repay.
How to read CIBIL report?
The CIBIL report has two vital attributes:
- Account Information
- Personal Specifics
It contains the details of your credit facilities that would entail , name of the lender(s) , the category of credit facilities such as Home Loan , Personal Loan etc , account numbers , mode of holding , the date of account opening , date of last payment , loan amount , current balance etc.
- Account Specifics
This section would comprise of details such as the lender’s name, account number, account type – whether it is a Credit Card, personal loan etc, ownership of the account , date of account opening and closing and the final date when these details were reported to CIBIL. These details should be factually accurate.
- Account Status
This portion would elaborate whether your account is Settled – means a partial payment has been made against the total outstanding or Written off – when payments have not been made for more than 180 days and reports this.
- Your Days Past Due (DPD) for every loan or credit availed
The DPD indicates how many days payment on that account is late by that month.
- Enquiry Information
This segment assists with details of all your loan applications. An enquiry denotes that a credit institution has requested for your credit details from CIBIL. If you have multiple enquiries in a short span of time, the Lenders will tread with caution regarding your account and behaviour of seeking excessive credit.
Understanding CIBIL score
The CIBIL score ranges from 300-900 -- with 300 being poor and 900 being the best score for credit-worthiness.
In other words, if your CIBIL score is inching towards 900, banks and financial institutions will roll out the red carpet for you if you land up at their doorstep.
How to read CIBIL report score is explained below :
What is a brilliant score? (700-800)

In the trade parlance, you are a low default risk. You will also be given the best rates, interest wise.
What is a good score? (600-700)
You may not be in the top category. But will still get the loan.
You may have missed/delayed payments or have a slightly misplaced loan portfolio, you’re still good.The lender may add a few decimal points to your interest rates and may seek slightly more paper-work. But at the end of the day, a lender will give you a loan or credit card if you are otherwise financially secure.
What is an average score (500-600)
