CIBIL’s (Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited) score is updated by the credit bureaus in India. The credit bureaus collect information from banks, financial institutions, and other credit providers to compile credit reports.
The CIBIL score is updated on a monthly basis, reflecting any changes in the credit history of an individual. The credit report is generated based on an individual’s credit history, including information on credit cards, personal loans, home loans, auto loans, and other types of credit.
It’s important to maintain a good CIBIL score, as it is one of the key factors that banks and financial institutions consider when evaluating loan applications or credit card applications. A good CIBIL score can improve the chances of getting a loan or credit card at a lower interest rate, while a low CIBIL score can make it difficult to get credit or result in higher interest rates.
Individuals can request a copy of their credit report from the credit bureaus to check their CIBIL score and credit history. This can be done annually or as needed to monitor any changes in the credit history and to ensure that the information is accurate.
