Any way to get HDFC core credit card for Co-brabded cc holders

[Fini7777]

I know a lot of ppl here facing this issue

Has anyone here started with an HDFC co-branded credit card and later successfully got an HDFC core credit card without closing co-branded one?

A common issue that I’ve noticed is that if you get your first credit card from HDFC as a co-branded card, it becomes quite challenging to obtain a core HDFC credit card later on. For those who’ve been through this, you might understand how tricky it can be to add a core HDFC card to your portfolio.

I’m curious to know if anyone has managed to navigate this hurdle and successfully received an HDFC core credit card after starting with a co-branded one. If you did, could you share how you went about it?

It is easy if you open a salary account. No need to close or upgrade existing co branded cards. They will directly give you core cards. Apart from salary account route, all other methods are very difficult and nearly imposible.


But after opening salary account, wait for 6 months. Let the salary comes for a few months and let the offer get generated for you, it gets enabled mostly based on salary amount. If net salary is more than 1L then you have good chance.

I have one account getting hdfc salary for more than 12 months, no offer I see.

Salary easily 1.5 lakh+

Any idea where to see
