    Dear Robin,

    The settlement being recent has impacted your score negatively. Check with HDFC Bank if they are ready to accept the outstanding amount of this settled loan and if they will remove the “Settled” remark post the payment – assuming you are willing to pay the same.

    Your credit score will gradually improve once this payment is done.

    Regards,

    Dear Robin, first of all please pay in full that old credit card bill & get NOC from the issuer as well ask there to update your status from settled to fully paid/ No due.

    Once that thing is done. Please avail a credit card against FD. Use only 50% of your limit & every month, pay in full. You ‘ll be able to see the improvement in your score over a period of time after all these actions. It ‘ll not come overnight.

    Please do not go for financing of TV, AC & bike to improve your credit score.

    Thanks
