TransUnion CIBIL Credit Report

In today's world, having a good credit score has become very important to get approval for loans and credit cards. In order to allow everyone to keep track of their credit history, RBI, through its circular in 2017, made it compulsory for each of the credit bureaus of India to provide one free credit report to every customer per calendar year. This post focuses on the process to see your credit report provided by TransUnion CIBIL, the oldest and most famous credit bureau of India.

Also, my cibil credit report was accurate. I did not find any discrepancies. In CRIF HighMark report I had faced an issue where some of my father's credit history was clubbed with my credit history.

I had read somewhere that cibil report and dispute mechanism is not so good. I don't know about disputes but the report generation process is pretty smooth and fast.

My Entry into the World of Credit Cards

After joining my job in June 2018, my salary account was opened in ICICI Bank. During the account opening process, I was offered a Life Time Free (LTF) credit card. Simply put, this was my first chance to get into the credit world without any extra hassle because first of all, neither was I aware of the concept of credit scores nor I had any credit history and secondly, I was just curious about credit cards after seeing of my father use his credit cards with extra caution and the monthly event of credit card bill payment that used to happen at my home. And in that sudden moment of joy, I made my first mistake in the credit world.

ICICI Credit Limit Increase Offer

Recently, ICICI Bank offered me a free credit limit increase for my Lifetime Free ICICI Platinum Chip Credit Card. My limit is being increased by ~31%. For last couple of weeks, I was seeing increased available credit limit on my ICICI net-banking page. I also received an SMS stating that they are offering me a free credit limit increase, after the bill for the latest credit cycle was generated. The same limit enhancement offer is visible in iMobile app as well. See the last SMS message in the above screenshot In the Latest Bill tab you will see the Manage Limit option just above My Rewards. I have been using the card for around 10-11 months. Although this increase seems low, considering utilization, it seems fair. The highest credit utilization was around 15% once, while for the last couple of months, it was <1%. On average it was in 2-3% range. One can accept the increase through any of the three modes, SMS, netbanking or iMobile. It will immediately update the lim...

The Japanese Constitution - Chapter 1

Chapter 1 - The Emperor Article 1 The Emperor shall be the symbol of the State and of the unity of the People, deriving his position from the will of the people with whom resides sovereign power. This article makes the post of emperor a symbolic one just like the post of Queen in UK or the post of president in a parliamentary democracy. It also emphasizes that the real power resides in the hands of people making it clear that there will be a democratic order of governance in Japan. Article 2 The Imperial Throne shall be dynastic and succeeded to in accordance with the Imperial House Law passed by the Diet. This article describes how the people will control the position of emperor through their elected representatives. Article 3 The advice and approval of the Cabinet shall be required for all acts of the Emperor in matters of state, and the Cabinet shall be responsible therefor. Article 4 The Emperor shall perform only such acts in matters of state as are provided for in th...
