Frequently asked questions

What's a good credit utilization ratio?
Below 30% is a commonly cited threshold; below 10% is even better for those optimizing hard for their credit score. It's calculated both per-card and across all cards combined.
Why does utilization matter so much?
It's one of the most heavily weighted factors in most Indian credit scoring models, second only to payment history — high utilization signals higher risk to lenders even if you always pay on time.
Does paying off my card before the statement date help?
Yes — utilization is often reported based on your statement balance, so paying down before the statement is generated can lower the reported ratio even if you always pay in full by the due date.
