Please share your best billing cycle date . Some people says 25-28 is the best some says 1-5 is the best . Which is the best date as most bank reports to cibil on month end .
As most banks (except ICICI, SBI and Amex) report at month end so try to keep the bill due date before that.
For others you can try to get it changed so that the bill due date falls close to month end. This will help you in managing if you have multiple cards.
Refer this for more info:
What's your credit card(s) bill generation date? Is it random?
Is it possible to have a bill generation date of our own choice? If yes, then can we do it with every bank? I was thinking to have a common date on all of my cards so that I could know when I have to pay plus how much my total credit card expenses are going. What about you all? :D

28th of every month is a sweet spot.
Reason is as some banks report credit utilisation to CIBIL on 30/31 and some on Billing date.
So if the date is kept on 28th no need to remember the credit utilisation reporting date for each card.
Just bring down the utilisation by paying dues above 30% of credit limit before every month end.

Those who are live on salary to salary basis and their salary date is in between 1-7th of a month, they prefer due date after salary date. they dont care of utilization ratio.

If billing date is month end, the due date will be after the 10th of next month

I don't care about billing date but only about the gap between the various cards we have. I have 3 credit cards. Have chosen the billing date in such a way that time gap is 10 days between each card. So, always at a point in time there will be CC which gives maximum credit period. I use that card or the card which gives max rewards. It's better to have a billing date on month end or 28th as many have suggested. Others with a proper gap. It's not a great idea to have CCs with same billing date.

Credit utilisation ratio not a big issue to me
