Well I was at SBI branch for my savings account and talked to a guy (actually 2 guys, 2 diff brances) and I got something from his phone, it was from his training manual.

Now I have probably ~25 credit cards(some on shared limit). CIBIL report says I have 21 credit cards. How the hell should we fix overleveraged issue fixed? Has anyone been able to do so? I am not asking someone who got declined because of other reasons(like my mom got declined for cashback coz mobile number match - my number is on her INB). I am saying, has anyone able to fix this? Like may be closed some cards or something? If I am let's say file 7L ITR, my alone ICICI and SBI(simplyclick) card limits will be more than my income (5L+3.95L) Does that mean I should close my all other cards and still there is no guarantee I will get cashback card no? I am sure many here have credit cards 10x above their income and still they are able to get cashback card.

Now what about shared cards? for example I have 7 ICICI cards (rupay/coral/rubyx mc-amex/sapphiro mc-amex/apay) but at CIBIL it shows only 2 cards. Probably coz apay and coral are reported and all rubyx/sapp/rupay all are under coral. Strange I though even apay is under my core icici cards but it's not. I used to have same limit with core icici card and apay 3-4 yrs back and now my apay limit is 5L and core card limit is 4.7L. Anyways, my question is if I keep apay and umm coral and close all others, does that mean it will help? ICICI will still report to CIBIL as 2 cards no? So does that mean I should close cards only who are shows as separate??

Damn Amex also report seperately at CIBIL, even kotak too. Why some banks report cards as one and some don't??

Anyways, if someone was able to fix over leveraged issue and how, let me and all of us know?
 
But I have never heard someone holding simplyclick card and cashback card together.

I have heard someone holding even simplysave and cashback but never simplyclick and cashback together.
I have Simply Click and Cashback both
Simple Click had 6L CL and got Cashback card with 20K CL

Transferred 4L to Cashback card and kept 2L with Simply Click

should have transferred max 2L on cashback no? Ideally 1L is enough as there is a cap on statement credit for 5k, But if the statement date changes, u get 5k limit again within same month, so 1L extra CL come handy then, but more than 2L CL for cashback card doesn't make any sense, what could be the scenario where more than 2L will come handy? unless it's abt how much amt for you are purchasing the product and u don't care ant the 5k limit in that case.?

Don't want my credit utilisation to go 50%-100% always hence kept it 4L so that utilisation could be under 25%, as my monthly spend goes upto 1L PM all the time so don't want to flag it high monthly
