    At 700, banks and housing finance companies offer rates around 8.1–9.75% p.a. with full loan-to-value ratios and quicker processing. The focus shifts to negotiating on rate, processing fee, and tenure rather than qualifying.

    Next step: From 700, keep enquiries low while your loan is being processed — a flurry of new applications can nudge your score down at exactly the wrong moment. Crossing 750 unlocks the very best home-loan rates.

    How to improve your CIBIL score

    Whatever your score today, the fundamentals are the same. Steady, consistent habits are what move a CIBIL score — there is no legitimate shortcut.

    • Pay every EMI and credit-card bill on or before the due date — payment history is the single biggest factor.
    • Keep credit-card utilisation under 30% of your total limit.
    • Avoid multiple loan or card applications in a short window — each triggers a hard enquiry.
    • Keep your oldest credit card active to preserve a long credit history.
    • Check your report regularly and dispute any genuine errors that drag your score down.
