Bajaj Markets, a leading digital financial marketplace, gives individuals a simple way to check their CIBIL score, at zero cost. There are no forms and no waiting time is involved. This quick service helps people understand their credit standing and take better control of future borrowing.

Check CIBIL score before a personal loan application!

With just a few easy steps, anyone can view their score and start making smarter financial choices. Using this free tool often can help users prepare for credit approvals and better loan offers.

Why a Strong CIBIL Score Matters to Lenders

Lenders use the CIBIL score to quickly understand an individuals credit behaviour and repayment track record. A higher score often signals responsible credit use, making the applicant more likely to repay on time. This helps lenders reduce risk and speed up decision-making, especially when dealing with large loan amounts or unsecured credit.

Users check CIBIL score for personal loan applications. Here are some easy steps that can help raise the CIBIL score and build stronger credit over time:

• Always pay loan EMIs and credit card bills on or before the due date

• Avoid applying for multiple loans or credit cards within a short time

• Maintain a mix of secured and unsecured credit to show balanced usage

• Check the credit report often to spot and correct any errors

• Keep credit use low and avoid using the entire limit available

Along with free CIBIL score checks, Bajaj Markets offers a wide range of financial products and services. These include personal loans, credit cards, insurance plans, investment tools, and savings options-all available through a trusted and easy-to-use platform.

In a recent press conference held in Mumbai, Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon, the founder of The Skin Art Clinic, discussed how her Lucknow-based clinic is becoming the preferred destination for skincare, not only in Uttar Pradesh but across India. With the cosmetic dermatology industry traditionally dominated by metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, The Skin Art Clinic has managed to carve out a significant presence by offering personalized care, ethical practices, and cutting-edge technology.

Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon

The press conference, which was attended by several key media personnel and industry experts, highlighted a unique approach to skincare. A recent survey conducted across major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore by 3EA revealed that The Skin Art Clinic has become the top choice for many patients seeking results-driven treatments. Notably, the clinic has gained significant attention from individuals in Mumbai and Delhi, with many now traveling to Lucknow for treatments that are at par with the best global standards.

Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon shared her vision behind the clinic and why she has been so successful in attracting patients from across the country, “When I started The Skin Art Clinic, my primary goal was to create a place where patients could receive advanced and holistic skincare, combined with the ethical practices of personalized attention and aftercare,” Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon explained during the press conference.

The clinic stands out for its advanced technology, including Morpheus8 RF Microneedling, ResurFX, IPL Therapy, Venus Freeze, HIFU, and regenerative treatments like PDRN, GFC, and Exosomes. Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon shared that such technologies have been instrumental in setting the clinic apart. The clinic is the first in Uttar Pradesh, excluding Noida, to introduce Morpheus8, a non-invasive treatment that promotes deep skin remodeling.

When asked,“What inspired you to adopt advanced technologies like Morpheus8 in your clinic“, Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon replied, “I believe that bringing in advanced technologies is essential for delivering the best results for our patients. Morpheus8, for instance, is one of the most effective treatments for skin tightening and rejuvenation. I adopted it because it’s proven to give visible results while minimizing downtime, which is important for today’s fast-paced lifestyle.”

Further, when asked, “How do you ensure a new technology is truly effective and safe for your patients” Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon explained, “We conduct thorough in-clinic trials for every new technology we introduce. We rely on global standards and international validation. Every new treatment undergoes rigorous safety checks before being offered to our patients. Our priority is always patient safety and results.”

The clinic’s approach to skincare goes beyond just surface-level treatments. Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon emphasizes a holistic approach that takes into account not just the skin but also a patient’s lifestyle, nutrition, and emotional well-being. This has resulted in a loyal patient base who appreciate the personalized care and tailored treatment plans.

Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon said that the clinic has earned a strong reputation, particularly among celebrities, business leaders, and athletes, who see The Skin Art Clinic as their top choice for skincare. These high-profile clients value privacy and exclusivity.

The clinic’s 7-day free follow-up policy is one of the standout features, which is rare in the industry. The Skin Art Clinic also boasts the highest Net Promoter Score (NPS), underscoring its strong referral rates and patient loyalty.

With increasing demand from patients across India, particularly from Uttar Pradesh, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Delhi, The Skin Art Clinic is proving that exceptional skincare doesn’t have to come from metro cities. Its cutting-edge technology, personalized care, and ethical practices are setting the clinic apart as a leader in cosmetic dermatology in India.

According to a recent survey conducted by 3EA, The Skin Art Clinic achieved an impressive 72% patient satisfaction rate, surpassing top clinics in Mumbai (67%), Bangalore (64%), and Delhi (58%). These insights were revealed by 3EA during the press conference, underscoring the clinic’s growing reputation on a national scale.

Dr. Nidhi Singh Tandon and her team’s dedication to innovation and patient care continues to make The Skin Art Clinic the top choice for cosmetic dermatology in Uttar Pradesh and a trusted name across India.

Hong Kong

In the first quarter of 2025, Hong Kong witnessed a 9% increase in visitor arrivals. The city in East Asia that boasts a melting pot of culture recorded 3.8 million tourist arrivals in April. The 13 per cent year-on-year growth in tourism can be attributed to Hong Kong’s appeal as a family tourism destination. The blend of unique cultural experiences, natural beauty, panda-mania, traditional fishing villages and scintillating street food spots adds to the city’s appeal.

Offering a melange of experiences and activities across iconic sites, theme parks, the outdoors and culinary trails, Hong Kong promises to be the ultimate family destination

Offering a melange of experiences and activities across iconic sites, theme parks, the outdoors and culinary trails, Hong Kong promises to be the ultimate family destination.

Positioned as the ‘World’s Meeting Place,‘ rightfully so, in the global business community, its allure can be attributed to four factors – its thrilling theme parks, outdoorsy activities, culinary gems and its unique travel offerings.

Hong Kong’s theme parks have a charm that attracts people of all ages. A family favourite is the Hong Kong Disneyland. ‘The Happiest Place on Earth,‘ synonymous with its fantastical zones and thrilling rides, recently threw open its newest attractions, ‘World of Frozen‘ and ‘Mystic Manor’. Not checking these out in person causes major FOMO.

Hit by a city-wide ‘panda-monium,‘ the government-backed campaign ‘Pandastic Hong Kong‘ has let visitors get up close with the city’s most adorable, furry inhabitants. At Ocean Park Hong Kong, Ying Ying, the oldest first-time panda mother and her twin cubs are the celebrities people from all over the world are flying in to meet.

Here, you must sign up for the Giant Panda Discovery (29 March 2025 to 31 August 2025), an experience that lets you get insider access to restricted areas and observe the furry beings go about their daily routine. Ocean Park Hong Kong will be hosting a birthday party for its twin cubs on 15 August 2025. That’s a panda-mania you can’t miss out on!

Doing full justice to the ‘Ultimate Destination‘ tag are Hong Kong’s outdoorsy activities that let vacationers soak in unparalleled views while being active. On the cards is Tai Mei Tuk, a cycling trail overlooking the Plover Cove Reservoir; the chance to explore the city’s oldest fishing village on foot, Tai O Fishing Village, and escape to the Tian Tan Buddha & Po Lin Monastery for a slice of tranquillity.

For adventure seekers, Hong Kong offers the opportunity to go horse racing at Happy Valley Racecourse and the Hong Kong Jockey Club. Thalassophiles can let down their hair and rent a charter yacht or a boat to sail the extensive coastline along the South China Sea.

And football fans must attend the Hong Kong Football Festival, an unmissable sporting event. Kickstarting on 26 July 2025 at Kai Tak Stadium, the first international match between Liverpool FC vs AC Milan promises to be an adrenaline-pumping event.

Creating waves in the tourism industry, Hong Kong’s ultimate destination tag extends to its commitment to promote ‘sustainable travel.’ Charting a new era of ‘green tourism,‘ Hong Kong will unveil ‘Four Peaks Tourism‘ in 2026. Catering to the wanderlust hikers, this initiative will give them access to four peaks-The Peak, Lantau Peak, Sai Kung Hoi, and Tai Mo Shan-encouraging eco-conscious travel.

Outdoorsy activities would leave one with a growling appetite. So, for discerning foodies, Hong Kong is nothing short of paradise. Riddled with a mesh of Michelin-starred experiences like Shang Palace and Arbor, a Temple Street Night Market for street fare, dim sum and egg tart workshops with expert chefs, the ultimate family destination will feel like a home to vegetarian, vegan and non-vegetarians.

For culinary enthusiasts, Hong Kong has a stream of food-forward festivals. From 1 May 2025 to 8 June 2025, Hong Kong will host the French GourMay, a culinary festival dedicated to gastronomy la franaise. The 16th edition brings forth gourmet stalls featuring French flavours, live cooking demos and curated spirit tasting all under one roof.

As always, food and travel must be taken in the same breath. So, apart from the most unique food offerings, among Hong Kong’s most unique travel highlights is Victoria Peak, standing at 552m, offering the most stunning views of the city skyline. Accessible by a 10-minute tram ride, the peak is a captivating attraction. Another unmissable experience in Hong Kong is the ‘Symphony of Lights’, a light and sound show on a sunset cruise that promises cherishable memories for family vacationers.

Another unique event in the city is the 70 Years of Miffy 2025, happening from early May until October. It is the first playhouse and exhibition in Hong Kong dedicated to Miffy, the titular character of picture books illustrated by Dutch author and designer, Dick Bruna. Watch Miffy and her world come alive at the 1881 Heritage through simple line drawing and full-colour art. Check out DiscoverHongKong’s calendar of cultural events to stay up to date and plan your vacay around key events.

Hong Kong is a destination where the larger-than-life theme parks meet thrilling outdoor activities, where the choicest culinary creations are found by the most unique experiences beloved to the city; where festivals, sporting events and exhibitions run throughout the year in plenty.

A place that boasts the top 5 family-friendly attractions, including a visit to Disneyland Hong Kong, a panda-spotting outing at Ocean Park Hong Kong, a splendid day of cycling at Tai Mei Tuk, soaking in the stunning views at Victoria Peak and a spiritual trip to Tian Tan Buddha & Po Lin Monastery.

This city offers the ultimate escape for the holiday goer demanding more out of a travel experience.
