I have 100% on time payment record and credit history of 4 year+ and I always keep my utilization below 30%

That's great to know that you always make payment in full. There are many factors included in getting your score 800+ but you need to do the same process for sometime as you don't have any secured loan like house loan which also increases your score.

Even I'm at 792 CIBIL.. Utilization as per OneScore/Cibil is usually 25-30%, credit history 6-7 yrs & all on time payments etc. Ran their simulators & it shows increase to 800+ only in case of availing home loan/vehicle loan etc :) Besides that don't know if other tips/tricks are sure shots to work

That's true that only using CCs will not boost Cibi to 800+

But 750-800 Cibil is good 😅
Golden rule- don't push yourself for a secured loan just because of boosting cibil score
Yes. Luckily have been loan free in my life so far.. so am happy about it & want to keep it so. Will let the CIBIL score take its own journey basis disciplined repayment, credit behaviour etc.. Rest I think 750/770+ is a good enough score & beyond that one shouldn't take CIBIL score too seriously or be too obsessed with it.

Absolutely... 770+ score is more than enough.
Just pay bill on time & relax

I am thinking about taking a overdraft facility against FD which can be availed in 5 minutes from net-banking which has only 1% interest rate only if we withdraw from OD.
Is it good method to get a secured loan and will it create +ve impact on my CIBIL?????

Overdraft on FD is not considered secured in cibil or any bureau. It is treated as current account itself which is unsecured. Also if u take hdfc fd od they show ur account balance in it as negative, which means if u have higher balance than Overdraft in ur saving account then in cibil current balance becomes negative equivalent to ur account balance. Consider icici od or any other . But anyway there is no secured OD in cibil.

This is reporting of my previous OD against FD in my CIBIL report. how to check weather its secured or not? In type of collateral its showing FD.

Can't comment on closed accounts as many of the details will be nullified. As far as I know, type of collateral is not usually seen, only Type: overdraft is considered which means its unsecured.
