Tip: Utilization is worked out from the balance on your statement date. Paying part of the bill before the statement is generated lowers what gets reported, even if you pay the full amount every month.

What is a good credit utilization ratio?

Credit utilization is how much of your total card limit you are using. Lenders read high utilization as a sign of credit stress, so it is one of the fastest-moving factors in your CIBIL score. Under 30% is commonly treated as healthy and under 10% as ideal. Keeping each card below 30% matters too, not only the total.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good credit utilization ratio for CIBIL?

Below 30% is commonly considered healthy and below 10% is ideal. Try to keep each card under 30%, not only the total.

Does paying my bill in full keep utilization low?

Not always. The balance on your statement date is what gets reported. Paying part of it before the statement is generated lowers reported utilization.

Should I close unused credit cards?

Closing a card removes its limit, which raises utilization, and can shorten your credit history. Keeping an old, unused card open often helps your score.
