Well my journey started with salary account in HDFC since 2018

I am Doctor by profession

I was offered preapproved LTF Regalia in early 2019 like many of us at that time
This was also my first credit card

My RM & BM are idiots...so they have no role in my journey

My initial limit was maybe around 3 lakh
I did not had much knowledge about credit cards at that time and simply used it as a payment option everywhere i got a chance and cleared my dues in full everytime on time.

I kept getting regular auto limit enhancements throughout this period till 2024

Then in late 2023 I stumbled upon this amazing forum and my life changed

From 3 credit catds in 2023 to 16 as of now... u can see how much I learnt from here

Here I came to know about more rewarding credit cards and that sometimes a paid card can be much much better than a LTF card

So I upgraded my regalia to regalia gold in january 2024 and then to DCB metal in September 2024 and now to Infinia metal in march 2025.....

All these upgrades under the guidance of this community.. were based on limit and spends requirement and were 1st year free

As for the Infinia upgrade my limit was 10 lakh and spends in excess of 10 lakh in last 6 months ...all the spends were proper retail spends...no rotation, no rental, no education payments, no insurance payments ...very minimal utility payments


Thanks everyone for not just infinia...but for enhancing my overall financial world knowledge.
