Meaning

A Credit Limit is the maximum amount of money a bank or credit card company allows you to borrow or spend.

How It Works

If your credit card limit is ₹50,000, you can use up to that amount for purchases. Paying back the balance restores your available credit.

Importance

Maintaining spending within your limit and paying on time helps build a good credit score.
