Sadda-Haq-Ai...

I want to purchase 1 refrigerator from flipkart using my ICICI cc. (10% upto 1000 discount offer)
The problem is my cc limit is 20k but product price is 24k.

I heard somewhere, if you pay in advance the whole amount to cc the cc limit will be increased and the transaction will go through.

My query is does this really work? If works will I get charged something like overlimit charge?

Yes, it does work.
I don’t have any personal experience with Icici though.

Yes this works, pay to cc from icici savings account if you have, immediately limit will get increased

But this will affect credit utilisation ratio, so load some more money before purchase

What if I load entire 24k to cc first?
Then I think credit utilization ratio will not be affected by any means.
Paying later is not my concern, I have money in my hand. Just wanted to know how this thing works.

You can use 4000 GVs using netbanking and then pay the rest with CC

hey, that’s not a wise thing to do. Overspending above your allotted limit will not only depreciate your cibil score but you might have to pay some overdraft fee.
Please check your cc manual for that.
Try to Ask friends who have icici cc with high limit they can help

does paying some amount of bill before bill generation decreases credit utilisation ratio?
Suppose—
I purchase something worth 9000 with my cc of limit 10000
Then I pay 6000 before bill generation date.

Now, will the credit utilization ratio will be considered as or below 30% ?

From my personal experience, I also came in between a situation like this, I paid a little more than the remaining amount to the cc (which is 4k in your case) before making the final payment, it went smoothly.
