Tricks to get Emerald LTF and Indulge LTF

Hello,

I have recently opened a Select account with IndusInd. They have offered me Legend LTF, but I have asked for Indulge LTF instead. I offered them to put 5L FD as goodwill. What are my chances? Any other tricks I can use? I already hold Infinia and Magnus so I don’t have a lot to gain from Indulge, but I will keep LTF if they offer.

Similarly, I have requested my icici RM to upgrade from Sapphiro LTF to Emerald LTF. I have told them that if they do so, I will move some expenses to Emerald, give them additional SIP and won’t move my salary to Axis. Would this work? Again, I have no inclination to pay any fees for Emerald since my other cards cover most benefits already

The reason I'm asking is that I asked for an upgrade from Regalia to Infinia to my RM. She mentioned that if my current limit gets increased to above 10L, then I can get Infinia LTF including your credit spending, to be above 15L in a year. Hence the question.
Yes. Do confirm over email that the card will be LTF without any conditions over email immediately. Dealing with RM's can be tricky sometimes

We'd love to hear your story on how you got it approved?
There is no story as such. My RM recently changed and when the new RM made the customary visit, I explained to him that icici is losing in credit card game and how I have moved my spending to axis and Hdfc (at one point, I only had icici card). I told him the only card I can have is Emerald and that too LTF since I don’t see any point paying joining/annual fees when the benefits are all covered by my other cards.

He made efforts to get approval for emerald. Looks like he succeeded. In return, I promised to start a small SIP.

I have a long relationship with icici. The TRV is not that high to be honest based on reports I have seen in this forum for Emerald LTF. Let me say, 20L+ investments in MF, 20L+ in PPFs and other debt accounts.
