Dunno about tier upgrade to gold. Regarding the free elite nights, thats the info I got from their support rep.

Received the card but it seems the limit is merged with other HDFC cards.
Also, the main thing online spending limit is just 5000 on the card and I cannot extend it, why is that ?

I have 63 nights. And I have an option to select 5 additonal night credits or 5 suites nights. I was thinking of taking 5 nights credit and applying HDFC mariott card that way I get titanium elite status. But it looks like the process is too long and will not be finished by end of the year. I will skip the card then and choose 5 suite nights instead.

Too late for this year.

Hdfc will charge you annual fees on 3rd month statement. And you will get your hotel nights after 3 to 12 weeks, post payment of annual fees.

Got it!!
I got the email to select 5 nights credit or 5 suite nights only today. So I started exploring. It appears they give this option on achieving Platinium Elite and Titanium elite status.

Is there any difference in lounge benefit of Marriott Bonvoy card as compared to DCB (apart from unlimited lounge access).

i dont think there is a significant difference in getting titanium.suites nights are a much better benefit IMO.

Hmm. When you qualify for titanium elite you get option for 5 suite nights again so I was thinking. All the nights I accumulated this year was from official travel. I don’t except yo have so much official travel next year and only planning 5 nights of personal vacation with family.

if I don’t stay in Marriott as much in coming years they will downgrade one level per year, so I thought I can have higher level status for one year extra.

At Titanium, Free Night Credit is better option than suite nights if you're not going to travel much

12 domestic + 12 international. Add on share the limit.

This i confirm with my bank cc staff and then i call marriott card support in front of cc staff and confirmed it.

Got regalia first now, pre approved upgrade to millennia. Thinking i should upgrade it, as regalia stop lounge access, and with this marriott card, got plenty, plus i got my other cards also.
