 When you apply for a loan, your CIBIL score is calculated based on your credit history. Here is a step-by-step way to acquire your CIBIL score without a PAN card.
 

CIBIL is a credit information service that, among other things, calculates borrowers' credit scores. The credit score, or CIBIL score, is important because it allows banks to only provide credit cards and loans to individuals with strong credit histories.

Your score for CIBIL is a three-digit number that represents your creditworthiness and loan payback ability. It runs from 300 to 900 points, with higher scores indicating greater creditworthiness and a higher likelihood of loan approval.

When you apply for a loan, your CIBIL score is calculated based on your credit record. CIBIL computes this using an exclusive technique. However, the most important aspects in this calculation are your past credit behaviors, such as how you managed loans and credit card debt.

Acquiring a CIBIL score can be difficult at times, especially if you do not have a PAN card. To make things easier, here's a step-by-step process for getting your CIBIL score without a PAN card.

Step 1: Visit the verified Cibil website and click on 'Personal CIBIL Score,' then 'Get Your Free CIBIL Score.' It will direct you to another link, where you may fill out all of the details.
