I have LTF infinia. Is it possible to get metal version?
If you have LTF Infinia, it doesn't matter plastic or metal, it's worth is always going to be there.. Don't even try to upgrade to metal, HDFC will charge for metal with 13k+.. Will metal worth for that amount? Def no..

An Imperia account holder here with almost holding 2x the minimum savings requirement for this. Have a Regalia credit card with ~7l credit limit. I just tried my luck for LTF Infinia, but no amount of flexing worked. Got an FYF DCB offer but I have asked for at least making that LTF and that didn't work either. Finally found my institute in the Almuni program and then after sharing that info, was upgraded to LTF DCB.

Hi everyone,
I currently have HDFC Regalia First with a Limit of 2.75 L
When I tried to apply for DCB last year I was asked to upgrade the limit of my Regalia using ITR & filling the form.
My question is what should be the best course of action for my case while filling the form?
• Tick the "Increase Limit" box & "Regalia"
• Tick the "Increse Limit & Upgrade Card" box & "DCB"

Any suggestions or input is Highly Appreciated.

Dada, for Upgrade To Infinia now one needs minimum 10 lakhs credit limit on your existing HDFC Bank Credit card

Source: my recent experience of upgrade from DCB to Infinia
Not accurate. I received my Infinia 10 days ago.
  1. Credit limit below 9 lakh.
  2. Spends around 5.5 lakh in the 6 months preceding my upgrade.
  3. Salary criteria not met.
They certainly have some 'other' internal criteria. :)

Could you share when did your last upgrade happen and what variant was it before Infinia ? A timeline would be helpful.

Interesting. In my case, was specifically asked to get CL to 10 lakhs, even though I was meeting all other criterias.
