The credit limit depends on income, credit score and repayment capabilities of an individual. More the income, credit score and repayment ability, higher will be the credit limit and vice-versa. But it doesn’t mean that you utilize a heavy portion of the limit even if it is higher. Credit limit utilization ratio must not exceed 30%-40%.
