I want to generate my CIBIL score

[raghav_mri]

I have recently turned 18 and looking for ways to increase/start my CIBIL score. I know that I can take a FD based credit card but is there any way to generate my CIBIL score

How much credit history(depth) is required for apply the first unsecured credit card

Depend on bank to bank
Minimum 6 months
Private bank provide pre approved cc offers to customers who don't have any cibil history

Just open a regular or savings max a/c in hdfc depending how much balance you can maintain. Spend via the debit card provided, within 6 months you will get offer for credit card. Do not open BNPL, it sometimes impacts negatively.
Or get a fd card from icici/one card/idfc
Don't look for anything else😉😉
Apay cc is not for under 21, so no chance

I got Apay card even though I'm 20 .pre approved after holding fd based card in icici .
Then after holding Apay card for 1 month got ltf coral rupay card under pre approved.

In the same boat but have an Axis bank account (Liberty, 1 month has passed) and IDFC wow card (secured card on 5k FD, got it on diwali). Any tips to improve my CIBIL? Currently my CIBIL is NH but experian became 786 due to Flipkart Pay Later (Started in October and the November bill reflected on 5th this month only on Experian not CIBIL idk why).

Spending with debit card.... Can get a higher chance off getting credit card?
Is it true 🤔 🤔

Yes it is true

The banks AI/system checks your spending habits from your account. If you spend more via dc, the better chance to get a credit card as pre approved. The logic behind this is simple, you can swipe your cc at almost every place where dc can be swiped. Their system will recognize that the individual is capable of earning them mdr. And if lured to spend more than his income, then will help them to earn interest charges too.

Means there is no benefit of using upi from savings account... If we only open an account for pre~approved credit card 🤔

It will also help, but the main ones are balance and dc spends.

I also have liberty, and waiting for pre approved cc. Not holding 2L but around 20-30K, and good dc spends. Around 5 months have passed. In hdfc I got within 6 months
