How long can you delay an EMI before your credit score drops?
Missing an EMI payment by just one day won't immediately damage your credit score. Lenders only report late payments to credit bureaus according to the RBI's reporting timeline, meaning a delay is only flagged if the payment remains outstanding by that time. However, the longer you go without clearing an overdue EMI, the more significant the negative effect on your credit history and overall score.
