Dispute Cibil Entry

A short, practical guide from the Rakshafin editorial team.

Most Indians never see their credit report until they're rejected for a loan. By then, fixing it takes months. Here's how to get ahead of it.

Start with the report, not the score

The number is just a summary. The story is in the line items — every loan, every card, every enquiry. Pull your report from any RBI-authorised bureau and read it once a quarter.

The four levers that actually move scores

  1. Pay every EMI and card bill on or before the due date.
  2. Keep credit utilization under 30% of your total limit.
  3. Don't apply for multiple loans in a short window.
  4. Dispute every wrong or unfamiliar entry immediately.

That's it. Almost everything else is noise.
