FAQ: Credit Score

1. What is a credit score?

👉 A credit score is a measure of consumer’s borrowing power or creditworthiness. The score can be between 300 and 900 depending on your credit history which consists of total debt, types of credit, and repayment history. A credit score of more than 750 in CIBIL ensures higher chances of loan approval and lower interest rates.

Whenever you apply for a loan or credit card, your payment history, amounts owed, length of credit history, credit mix, and new credit are checked in the credit report along with the credit score.

There are 4 major credit bureaus in India:
1. TransUnion CIBIL (often referred as CIBIL score)
2. Experian
3. Equifax
4. CRIF High Mark

The credit bureaus have their own algorithm to calculate the credit scores of individuals or businesses. Astu Credit app helps you improve your credit score across all the four credit bureaus.

2. What are the different credit scoring ranges?

👉 A credit score helps banks, lenders or financial institutions analyse the risk of lending money to you for home, education or personal use. In India, the score ranges from 300 to 900.

2. Good: 650 to 749
3. Average: 550 to 648
