Can foreign nationals resident in India apply for Indian credit cards?

[skywatcher404]

Is anyone here who is a foreign national? I'm a foreign national, holding an OCI card, a resident in India. IDFC First has a check on their application page whether you are an Indian citizen or not. Wonder if other cards also have similar restrictions?

Easiest way is to simply state that you are an Indian citizen. Sometimes it asks for 'resident Indian' which is correct if you are living in India.

Yes, as long as you have a PAN Card, a valid address proof in India (Stuff like Rent agreement + Utility Bill), ID Proof, (of course passport) banks will give you Credit Cards. My last company's manager is a Foreign National. He had Credit Cards of major Indian Banks, so I know that they do.
