Just like individuals get a CIBIL score, companies get a CIBIL Rank. This summarises the Commercial Credit Report (CCR) of the company.

A rank will range from 1 to 10. 1 is the best rank. This is applicable to companies with credit exposure which is between Rs.10 lakh and Rs.50 crore.

The rank will indicate the probability of the company missing payments. Lenders can look into the rank to decide if they should lend funds to the company.

Eligibility to Check Your CIBIL Score

  2. If you have not taken any credit product, you will be known as 'new to credit' and will not have a credit score
  3. You need to have a valid PAN card to be able to check your credit score

How is Your CIBIL Score Calculated?

Your CIBIL score will be calculated using your credit history in the CIBIL report. This will reflect your frequency in applying for loans or credit cards, secured and unsecured credit, and also, credit repayment history.

Loan Repayment History

Making timely payments can easily increase your credit score. Any default in your EMIs or making late payments will affect your CIBIL score.

Duration of Credit History

The duration of your credit history will affects your score, and if you have used credit products for a long time, and made timely payments, you will have a high credit score.

Number of Hard Inquiries

When you ask for credit, a lender may run a hard inquiry to see your credit score. Your credit score may be badly impacted by these harsh inquiries.

Credit Utilization Ratio

This is the ratio of the credit amount that you spend to the credit amount that is actually available to you. You should not use more than 30% of your credit.

Credit Mix

You should have a good mix of secured and unsecured loans. Having one as a greater proportion can be unfavourable.

Errors in Credit Report

Errors in your CIBIL report like wrongly assigned loans, incorrect mention of default in repayments, errors in personal information can affect your CIBIL score.

Lack of Credit History

Your credit score is calculated based on your credit history. If CIBIL assigns you a 'New to Credit' tag, it will be difficult for the lender to determine your risk.

How Does Your CIBIL Score Impact Your Loan Eligibility?

Before granting you a loan, a lender will first consider your CIBIL score. The lender has the right to reject your application if your CIBIL score is poor. Lenders will investigate additional information to determine your creditworthiness if your CIBIL score is quite high. Therefore, having a high credit score will improve the likelihood that your loan application will be accepted.

When you apply for new credit, more than only your CIBIL score is taken into account. Your employment history, debt to income ratio, and line of work will all be factors considered by lenders.

Benefits of a Good CIBIL Score

  1. When you have a high credit score, you are more likely to get lower interest rates on your loans.
  2. The chances of loan applications being approved is higher.
  3. You will have access to pre-approved loans.
  4. Your credit cards and loans will be approved quickly.
  5. You will get a discount on your processing fee.
