Credit Information Reports
The data that CIBIL collects is used in creating credit information reports, also known as CIRs. These reports contain the basic borrower information (such as names, DOB's and addresses), past payment history, overdue amounts, records of all the credit facilities availed by the borrower, suit-filed status and number of inquiries made on that borrower, by different Members.
CIBIL hasn't been able to live up to its own claims and the expectations of its users / stake holders with regards to quality of reporting and improving ways to ensure correctness of information of individuals. Its reporting is marred by non updating of records / wrong reporting and scores of individuals suffering on account of inefficiencies of CIBIL

Famous quotes containing the words credit, information and/or reports:
“Taft, laughing, “What troubles [brother] Charles is, he is afraid Roosevelt will get the credit of making me President and not himself.” To Charles: “I will agree not to minimize the part you played in making me President if you will agree not to minimize the part Roosevelt played.””
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“But while ignorance can make you insensitive, familiarity can also numb. Entering the second half-century of an information age, our cumulative knowledge has changed the level of what appalls, what stuns, what shocks.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“He who is only a traveler learns things at second-hand and by the halves, and is poor authority. We are most interested when science reports what those men already know practically or instinctively, for that alone is a true humanity, or account of human experience.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
