How to Correct Credit Reports Showing Closed Loans as Active
When a loan is fully repaid but still appears as active on credit reports, it can delay new loan approvals. Borrowers should first verify loan closure with their lender and retain documents like the No-Dues Certificate or closure letter. Since credit bureaus rely on lender data, contacting the bank to update records is essential. If issues persist, borrowers can dispute errors with credit bureaus and escalate to the Banking Ombudsman. Vehicle loans may also require updating registration certificates to remove lender claims.
