Icici is offering their 3rd LE for me now.
It went like 30K > 2L > 4.2L > 5L (current offer). They've never asked me to submit any income documents so far.
Raising the CL will have any adverse effect on my credit score? Will it lessen my chance of getting LE in other cards considering that my CL and income?
My other credit cards are not giving this kind of LE despite submitting income documents.
