HDFC ESP Debit card PIN

[Tosh]

My card was recently upgraded to the imperia variant do I need to change PIN via ATM or can I continue to use the same old PIN from my previous card?

Old card was the normal easyshop platinum card

If the card number is different, then you have to set a new PIN and Usage limits

You can use old pin until you change your debit card.

So a few updates for those who might be in similar situation somewhere down the line.

1. Imperia customer care is not 100% reliable as I had to disconnect call for being kept on hold for 4+ mins - Willing to give BOD as it's Sunday and already past 9pm
2. Card has a different number and seeing two cards in my net banking - Cannot use old pin on new cards - so @TheMentalist is right and card will require setup again.
3. Old card is still active so no rush in activating the new one as they are same except for their look.
4. Very Important - HDFC did send a message (OTP) to setup pin on new card however Google messages ended up auto deleting it after 24 Hours so disable that setting when upgrading as they don't send a mail.

Will I be charged (Rs 50/-) for asking them to resend the same PIn again or is that wavied off for premium banking?

Try activating via Netbanking, no charge for pin generation & I think they also send OTP while activation

Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think debit card pin generation can be done via netbanking

It can be done, AFAIK
