My application has been denied a second time even after forwarding the same twice with the necessary approvals because apparently the bank is now only offering this card on Invite Basis.
This after having a wealth account with net 3lpm, 2 cards with a 10 lac limit each and a 20 year old corporate account with them. Not good enough I suppose. I am done chasing this thing. Will just maximise Infinia and Atlas I guess.
