"We infer from your email that you sought assistance for credit card application to Life Time Free Diners Club credit card basis Premium Institute's Program. Being completely sensitized to your concerns we have reviewed the same and we wish to inform you that application for credit cards would be considered in line with the bank's internal credit policy (which is based on a combination of financial and related criteria and/or statistically determined scores to assess credit eligibility) and operating/credit processes (which include a combination of verifications, credit bureau reports and document verifications). We regret to inform you that we are unable to accede to your request for credit card application to Life Time Free Diners Club credit card basis Premium Institute's Program."

Damn HDFC 😡

so in short, they are citing internal criteria.
looks like someone asked them to complete a 1000 word essay.

normal banks: "I can't."
HDFC: "I currently do not possess the ability to can."
