People often believe that marriages are destined, but in today’s world, financial stability plays a key role alongside traditional factors like family background and horoscope matching. In a recent incident in Maharashtra’s Murtizapur, a wedding proposal was turned down after the bride’s family discovered the groom had a low CIBIL score, highlighting how creditworthiness is now influencing marriage decisions.
A CIBIL score reflects an individual’s credit history, covering loans, credit cards, and repayment behavior, indicating financial discipline. According to sources, the wedding was almost finalized, with both families agreeing to the match and preparations already in motion. However, a last-minute financial check changed the course of events.
During a formal discussion between the families, the bride’s uncle made an unexpected request—to check the groom’s CIBIL score. What followed left the bride’s family in shock. The report revealed that the groom had taken multiple loans from different banks, and his low score raised concerns. A poor CIBIL score often signals irregular payments, loan defaults, and financial instability, making the family rethink their decision.
The bride’s uncle raised concerns about how the groom’s existing loans could affect his ability to provide financial stability. Other family members supported his view and decided to call off the wedding. This incident from Murtizapur highlights the growing importance of financial awareness, not just in banking but also in major life choices, said some financial expert.
