Regalia Gold Tried applying for RG C2C LTF but application shows decline

Hi TechnoFins,
I applied for the RG card LTF on C2C basis based on the Special Pricinf Offer I got to know here.
I used my FK Axis card with 6L+ limit for the application. My CIBIL stands at 785 right now and total CL available to me is ~18L with credit utilisation not even reaching 3% nowadays. Credit age for the oldest card is 4 years now
Other cards:
ICICI APay
AMEX - 2 months old now

I first received an SMS
Your HDFC Bank Credit Card Application No.xxxxxxx is approved in principle subject to Internal Checks. We will update you soon.

Which then changed to
Your HDFC Bank Credit Card application No.xxxxxxx has been processed. Track status after 2 days here

When checking the tracker, it now shows Decline

I heard that >5L CL is a done deal and even for income criteria (if required) I meet that.

Should I be mailing somewhere to HDFC asking for the reasons for declining the application or should wait for a few days as some people mentioned that they received email for income proof etc and the application was approved later on?

TIA to everyone
 
As always, HDFC strikes back.
Got a call today that I don't meet some criteria and hence being downgraded to Millenia.

Browsing through the forum, got enough idea that availing Millenia now could become a death nail in getting SPCs later on so declined.

1 CIBIL hit wasted.

@S S V @4uziaul @deep@vie @vijay.vj should I relax or should I try some other bank card now?

Where will @nomad use a card?😂
I guess that was HDFC's rationale

What is the "Special Pricinf Offer"?

No hurry but I did not have a HDFC card right now and 2 out of 3 cards I have don't offer Lounge Access.
Since, there is a possibility to get a SPC card LTF, why not try it?

My spends do not go near 5L mark.

Acceptance is a big issue with AMEX as a lot of times I may have spends but the merchant does not accept it. Have to use the other cards then.

yeah.. and see what happens... Credit score build will take long.. you will need it for other reasons.. go slow.. Lounge access means lits of travel, do u travel a lot?.. Take your time.. build slowly.. will hold you in good stead in the long run.. Use what you have.. HDFC will also happen
 
Can you please tell me how you got to know about this? Is there any link or anything that I can take a look at? And can apply for it with any branch.

I'm right now a student at IIT Delhi. I think I'll be eligible for an LTF DCB Card according to this page and as per my college, but I'm not sure where I can apply for this offer as we don't have any branch of HDFC in IITD. (Unlike SBI that offered LTF SBI Elite as there is a branch in IIT.)

The DCB offer is gone now
The same sheet is used for all the special offers and has not been updated after the LTF for DCB was discontinued.
