What is the Closing Date?
The closing date (statement date) is when the bank closes your month's transaction record and generates the statement. Ye billing cycle ka aakhri din hota hai. Statement me "Statement Date" / "Closing Date" ke roop me milta hai.
Closing Date vs Due Date
| Date | Matlab |
|---|---|
| Closing Date | Billing cycle khatam, statement generate |
| Due Date | Closing ke 21-25 din baad — payment deadline |
Why Pay Before Closing Date?
Smart move: pay 2–3 days before the closing date — utilization then reports lower, which helps your credit score. Keeping utilization under 30% is best. Utilization guide see.
