In my experience, regardless of your CIBIL score or income, if you've had a supplementary card previously—meaning the primary cardholder was your dad, mom, or a family relative—and kept the card active for as long as possible before canceling and reapplying after six months, you may not need income documentation for any of the top three cards, except for the Platinum Charge (because I haven't applied for it yet). That's one sure way, as everyone I've referred had to upload income documents, whereas I had a supplementary card in my name from 2015 to 2019. Now, I hold all three: Gold, Platinum Travel, and MRCC

It means you are pre approved....
AMEX is trying to flood the mkt with plat travel cards...
Getting a mail almost every second day that the offer has been extended especially for you...
I don't know what's on their mind...

What Vaibhav said above makes sense but I have also noticed a lot of friends joining Amex for the first time and were never asked for their income documents.

What we see is the CIBIL score, credit profile and age but I think AmEx has a lot more data and information points.
Based on this, their algorithm does some calculations depending on whether the information submitted in your profile matches their data or not.

If the data matches, your income proof isn't asked for and you get approved directly.

If something doesn't look right, they ask for the income docs to verify the information manually and then approve it.
