Are you looking for a new credit card or a loan? Then make sure your CIBIL score is in good shape. A CIBIL score is a three-digit figure that reflects your creditworthiness for readers unfamiliar with loan language. Your credit application will be approved if you have a decent credit score. If it isn't, it may be turned down.
The credit score is significant since it is one of the many qualifying criteria used by lenders. Credit Information Bureau (India) Ltd, currently known as TransUnion CIBIL, is the country's leading CIC (Credit Information Company), which keeps track of people's credit ratings. Experian, Equifax, and CRIF Highmark are the others. The term CIBIL has become associated with credit score since it is the oldest and has the largest market share. Each firm, on the other hand, creates its own score, which lenders can check with one or more of the four agencies, depending on their choice. Your borrowing and repayment practises account for a big part of your credit score. A higher credit score is earned when payments are made on time and without default.
Despite lenders' and the CIC's best efforts, faults can occasionally slip into the system. If you believe your credit report has been harmed by inaccurate information, you can file a dispute. It's critical to understand the procedures for resolving such a dispute. If you don't, your ability to get a loan or a credit card in the future may be threatened.
In CIC reports, there are two main types of disagreements:
Individual Disputes (A)
Your credit report may contain mistakes or inaccuracies as a consequence of incorrect personal information. For instance, the name Rahul Mehta is misspelt as Rahul Mehra. An inaccurate entry might be caused by an improper firm name, PAN number, address, or payment status.
There may even be account duplication. As a result, a single loan may appear on a person's credit record twice. As a result, the borrower's entire credit score may suffer as a result. You must fill out a dispute form with the CIC to settle these issues.
B. Business Conflicts
When differences in a company's credit report develop, several sorts of disputes happen. These might be the consequence of a duplicate account or data errors, much as individual disputes. A disagreement between a firm and its authorised signatory should be filed using a dispute form.
However, corporate disagreements over a member's name, enquiry date, account number, or control number will not be resolved.
What is the procedure for filing a CIBIL dispute?
The procedures for filing a dispute may range significantly from one CIC to the next. Consider the case of CIBIL. To remedy concerns with a CIBIL report or a company's credit report, a CIBIL dispute resolution request can be submitted. If you've previously registered with CIBIL, you can file a complaint by following these steps:
• Log into'myCIBIL' • Select the 'Raise a Dispute' page • Select the area you want to dispute • Select your account • For a duplicate information or ownership dispute, select the specific option under 'Dispute Type' and input the dispute details.
• If a disagreement arises as a result of incorrect data, enter the exact value for the relevant field and then click 'Submit.'
If you don't have an account, you can fill out the CIBIL online dispute resolution form, which is accessible via different URLs for individual and business issues.
Although online dispute resolutions are the most efficient way to resolve CIBIL report discrepancies, you can also write to CIBIL's Mumbai office at: TransUnion CIBIL Limited, One World Centre, 19th Floor, Tower 2A and 2B, 841, Jupiter Textile Mill Compound, Senapati Bapat Marg, Lower Parel, Mumbai – 400 013.
The mechanism for resolving disputes
If any mistakes or inconsistencies are discovered under examination after you file a CIBIL challenge, they are labelled as "under dispute." Following that, CIBIL will contact the lender in question and get the errors addressed. In the meanwhile, CIBIL will send you an email every week with the progress of your dispute. You will receive an SMS notice once the report has been rectified.
Finally, keep in mind that this process might take up to 30 days because CIBIL only makes changes to your report after receiving authorization from the financial body.
