We have become so dependent on UPI and digital payments that we have stopped carrying cash. Now there is no need of card or cash to go anywhere. Just pick up your phone and go wherever you want, because now India has become not just India but Digital India. From big showrooms to small hand carts and rickshaw pullers are able to take payments through UPI. But does this question arise in your mind that your civil score is getting spoiled due to UPI payments? If yes, then let us give you the answer to this question.
Do UPI payments make a difference to CIBIL score?
Whenever you apply for a loan, especially a personal loan or an unsecured loan, lenders do not just look at your credit score. In fact, they also take a deeper look at your bank statements to see how you manage your money. Your digital payments are also visible here. In such a situation, it does not directly affect your CIBIL score.
Zero balance can cause problems
When lenders look deeply at your account, they always see one of your cycles. In which salary comes to your account on a particular date, after that you pay the bills and make payments. Then these lenders see whether zero balance is frequently maintained in your account, or whether your money is spent as soon as it arrives. All these things attract some attention of the lenders. Although this data does not affect your score, lenders may change their decision after seeing it.
What does credit score mean?
UPI has no direct impact on CIBIL or credit score. No matter how many UPI payments you make, it will neither reduce nor increase your credit score. Yes but your transaction history tells a lot about you. This helps the lender to estimate whether you will be able to repay the loan or not and it also affects your interest rate.
