Your CIBIL report contains details of credit transactions you have performed in the past. At times, there can be some typographical errors, inaccurate information, mismatched data, or discrepancies in your credit report that can be detrimental to your loan and credit card approval. A CIIBIL dispute resolution can help in rectifying these errors.
It is recommended to check your credit report regularly for errors regarding your personal and account details, payment history, information related to existing credit, collateral/security, etc., and raise a CIBIL dispute at the earliest to rectify errors, if any. The CIBIL dispute resolution process can be carried out online and resolved within a month.

For example, Sumit Malhotra could be misspelled as Sumit Mehrotra or a single loan account may be reflected in your CIBIL Report twice, thus reducing your overall score.
Company/Commercial Disputes
Company disputes may arise in the form of incorrect ownership details, the existence of duplicate accounts, data inaccuracies, etc. The authorized signatory of the company can initiate dispute resolution by filling out the CIBIL dispute form.
However, information that cannot be rectified through the dispute resolution mechanism includes account number, member name, enquiry date, and control number.
