CIBIL Score: What Role Does It Play?
Your CIBIL score is one of the factors considered during eligibility assessment, but it is not the only one. InstaMoney’s NBFC partners also look at:
- Your monthly income and how regularly it appears in your bank account
- Your existing debt load and active EMIs
- Employment stability and income source
- Bank account activity over the last 3 to 6 months
This means applicants with a low CIBIL score or no credit history may still qualify if their income and bank account data is strong. A CIBIL score of 0 or -1 means no credit history, not a bad history, and is not an automatic rejection on InstaMoney.
Do I Need a Guarantor?
No. InstaMoney loans are unsecured. You do not need a guarantor, a co-applicant, or any third-party to back your loan application. The decision is based entirely on your own eligibility profile.
Do I Need to Pledge Any Asset?
No. InstaMoney does not require collateral of any kind. You do not need to pledge property, gold, a fixed deposit, or any other asset. The loan is issued purely on the basis of your income and creditworthiness.
What Reduces Your Chances of Approval?
Being aware of these factors helps you apply at the right time:
- Monthly income below Rs. 12,000
- A very high number of existing EMIs relative to your income
- A CIBIL score significantly below 600 with no alternative income data to support the application
- Recent defaults or a history of missed payments on existing loans
- Age below 21 or above 55
