I had CIBIL score of 820 when I took a car loan in 2019 which brought down my CIBIL straight to 798 (not sure why such a big drop). Canara Bank did make 2 hits by mistake and refused to remove it. They made the first hit for personal loan (LMAO) whereas I applied for car loan. Later when they realized they made another hit for car loan for same amount and even debited my account by Rs. 55 as charge for the same which again they refused to reverse.

I never missed any EMI and closed my 7 years loan in 2 years. But ever since then my CIBIL moves between 802 to 807. Never gone beyond 807 ever after that.

How can I improve it further. Any suggestions? Please help 🙂

Thanks @sudheerreddy

Went through it...seems the only way to improve is to have an ongoing case and take few loans. So, first I need to default on payment and then make a case and take more loans :O

And if it is strictly followed, my CIBIL is set to go down further as I just closed my home loan few days back and the only type of credit I have now is Credit Cards. The moment this gets reported my credit mix is going to go down from 2 to 1 which according to this article will take my score DOWN by 10-15 points 🙁

You have such an excellent score. There's no point of worrying about it if the score is above 750, and you have more than 800. Why do you care to increase it more? It's an unnecessary headache..

I've never seen 800.
Once saw 798 then it again came back 794 for something.
We can exchange 🤣

cibil algorithm works in mysterious ways although the link shared does make sense but they keep tweaking. What all bureaus do consider is mixture of credit. So instead of having just 1 loan even if you repay before time having a mix of secured loans like loan along with unsecured loans do add more value. But its not worth the effort for nothing is guaranteed. Also the number of years of your credit history also matter so maintaining good score for 10 years is better than good score for 1 year.
